Democratic mundialization

Tuesday, November 8, 2016, Election Day is getting closer yet there are still so many uninformed people voting. People who are not informed about the candidates’ political views, knowledge and plans for the future of the country should not vote. These people, who either vote by popularity, charisma, or even wealth, to choose a candidate they know nothing about, put the nation’s future at risk. Citizens who vote uninformed are signing a contract without even reading it’s terms and conditions. Where is the common sense America? Unfortunately, not all voters use their political knowledge when it comes to voting. Low information voters (LIV) vote by emotional connections, self-beneficial promises, party preference, popularity and or just to be dutiful. Their voting decisions are far more dangerous and alarming than the candidates themselves because they do not thoroughly study the issues or the candidates. A perfect example of uninformed voters is now in the year 2016; Republican candidate Donald John Trump Sr. has become quite popular among the poorly informed, ignorant, racist, and hateful. I do believe with just mentioning his name is the perfect example of why politically unknowledgeable citizens should not vote. Why is it the perfect example? Take in mind his belittling insults against woman, debt strategies, racial animus, failed business background and analyze how the country would be with this man in office. This candidate has no good political or moral…

Democracy is the central feature of government in the United States of America. It was an idea set forth by our Founding Fathers as the building block upon which our nation would grow. Democracy is a constant in American government but it was radically changed with the election of Andrew Jackson to the presidency in 1828. Jackson wanted to bring the common people back into the government, taking it away from the elitists that had begun to dominate American politics. What was important to his…

The film Bulworth follows the campaign of a senator that is running for elections in the State of California. As soon as the film starts we are introduced to the high level of corruption that occurs in a political campaign or as politicians refer to it as simply campaign. By the end of the movie it is clear that the film portrays current American politics. The film makes interesting references to how race, gender and class matter when it comes to our political system. However it is also very…

Is Andrew Jackson a Hero, or a Villain? “One man with courage makes a majority." This quote by Andrew Jackson perfectly portrays the life, the character, and the overall Presidency of Andrew Jackson. Andrew Jackson became the seventh President of United States of America on March 4, 1829 and served two terms until March 3, 1837. During this time frame, Mr. Jackson completely revolutionized the Presidency of the United States by winning the popular vote, and by being the direct representative…

Without Sanctuary Reflection My first reaction to the narration wasn’t as shocking as I thought. It was horrifying to see the pictures and to also hear a detailed description with research behind it. History always has a way of telling a story and bringing up great discussion, especially when comes close to heart. Growing up, I’ve heard plenty of stories; but I have never actually encountered anything demeaning to my social perspective, self- esteem, or character. Throughout this paper I would…

The founding fathers of the United States never intended for the nation to be dominated by two political parties. However, over the years, the nation has become a modern two-party system, where the Republican and Democratic parties have dominated American politics. Initially, the views and issues of the Republican Party was originally the same views shared by the early democratic party. The early Democratic Party possessed conservative ideologies which opposed expansion of federal power,…

“It shocks us. It always shocks us. Particularly when it happens in the state where we live, the county where we live, the city where we live. . . . We tell one another how horrible it is. Because that’s true, but we’re not surprised. One of the worst things about news like this is that horrible is the new normal [emphasis added].” (McLeigh) School shootings have become the new norm in America. This should not be the case when these tragedies are completely avoidable. According to a recent study…

Louisiana is known to have supported the Democratic Party for many decades. The large black population of the state identifies with the party (Stolberg, 2014). Most of the residents of New Orleans, the largest city of the state, also support the part. Given the huge support that the Democratic Party has enjoyed in the state for many years, Landrieu is likely to carry the day. The Democratic Party is only popular in Baton Rouge and other areas with small populations. That is why Cassidy is likely…

The later end of the 19th century showed huge change in American society, with special focus being on the 1860’s onwards because of the legal change giving slaves in the USA rights to be a human being. From being classed as animal, black American’s now had opportunities never before faced, however this change did not happen overnight. Although vitally important in the abolishment of slavery in American, it becomes obvious that the 13th amendment was not the turning point of civil rights in the…

are multiple groups or individuals in America that would not be likely to support my ideas to keep illegal immigrants out of this country. One group that I found that would be likely to oppose my up front and “out there” solutions is likely to be the Democratic Party in the United States. Overall the Democratic Party seems to be a much more laid back or nurturing party compared to the Republican Party. According to the article “Let Them Stay or Make Them Go? The Debate over Illegal…
