Flight has always been the dream of men. Since the time of Chinese military kites, mankind has utilized the air as a method of war, exploration, travel, and thrill. Pushed to the side were women. Before 1908, no woman had ever soloed in an airplane. In September of 1908, Thérèse Peltier, a French woman, set that record with a 200 metre flight in a Voison boxwite at Turin, Italy. Two years later, two women in the United States would follow Peltier into the sky: Blaunche Stuart Scott and Bessie…

Eminem’s freestyle rap, The Storm, is an attack against President Trump. He expresses his hate and anger against Trump and notes “racism’s the only thing he’s fantastic for,” and taking on everything from Trump’s alignment with white supremacy to his expensive travel budget.

Xenophobia, racist comments, hatred, and prejudice are things refugees have to face daily. Every year many refugees seek asylum in other countries, as they come from places that are not as secure as countries like America, and feel unwelcomed with all the hostility. Ignorance and not knowing the whole picture are reasons why many falsely judge immigrants. The power of fear and unknown is what stunts the growth of negative opinions and is the underlying cause of hateful actions. In the…

After Donald Trump was subsequently admitted into office and represented as the head of the United States, he initiated extraordinary actions. All of the campaigns that Trump has published and worked on to get the public and media's attention, he has done it successfully and he also takes credit for his attributions. One of his biggest priorities was to deport illegals from Mexico and other countries who crossed over to avoid conflicts that were happening in their native country. Donalds Trump’s…

Donald Trump is a rather polarizing candidate. It shows in his opinions, and manifests itself particularly prominently in his campaign strategy. He touts “Make America Great Again,” and treats it as more of a personal credo than simply a campaign slogan. Regardless of personal political views, Trump is at the very least interesting. Every step his campaign takes is shrouded in controversy. Trump brazenly attacks other candidates for whatever reason he sees fit, including an infamous criticism of…

The BBC News article is about Donald Trumps reaction to the book Fire and Fury by Michael Wolff. Fire and Fury contains insight into Trump’s white house and administration, and in it, Wolff “paints a picture of the president as impatient, unable to grasp policy, and prone to rambling and repeating himself.” The book contains direct quotes from several named and unnamed sources in the White House, all of whom are not fans of the president. One of the sources stated that Trump’s “mental powers…

Clinton and Trump both used social psychological principles in order to describe their viewpoints on political issues.

Hillary Clinton relied far more on central messaging, while Trump tried to use peripheral messaging in order to attract voters. Clinton utilized central messaging through the implementation of facts, logic,…

Donald Trump is a Republican candidate for the 2016 presidential election. He has many different views on hot button issues that are affecting America today.

Donald Trump was born on June 14, 1946 in Queens,…
