In the Country of Last Things

researching on a simple country singer. This speech I last did was my informative speech and I felt much more prepare with this speech because I have everything done on time, I had my outline ready, notecards ready and to be able to read, my power point was good and I felt a little more confident. In class when we picked times when we were going to, Mr. Stauffer took volunteers to go first and so after that we drew out of the bucker, and I was ready but I just feel I wanted to go last but I was…

and until they were ticked off by the germans. So many things changed including how women got more rights and how the foreign policy changed. From time to time every thing kind of changes just like from WW1 to now.

President Kennedy had just been elected President of the United States and the Americans were head over heels for him. He gave an overwhelming peace among the U.S. with his caring words of charisma.

If you ask me America has been on a decline for quite sometime now. Issues such as racism, crime and violence, and in more recent news, the presidential race, have been immensely sending our country on a downhill spiral. African Americans have never been seen as equals in the United States. This, however, began to change in the late 1860’s, when the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments were passed (The Civil War Amendments). These are known as the Civil War Amendments. These three additions to the…

On March 4, 1801, Thomas Jefferson delivered his “First Inaugural Address” in front of a few thousand citizens in Washington, D.C.

He gave 13 principles that the government should follow to make a good government. One hundred and sixty years later, President John F.

Our country is one of the most brave countries in the world. We have people who care enough to risk their lives in many different ways. To make our country as great as it is. That is the country that I believe in. Some take time off or quit their job to keep this country great. One example is a NFL player named Pat Tillman. He quit his job in the NFL to enlist in the army in 2002. He passed away two years later when he was in service. That’s just one of many examples of people who quit their…

"Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!" These are the few words opening a door of freedom for the Negro. They were said by a man who was not afraid of getting himself killed by the white people after saying these last words of a whole speech he inspired the world by. It is a man who claimed his own freedom without asking anybody for it, but not only that, he also claimed the rights for every Negro on earth. Starting from America all the way to Africa, passing…

Another thing is that criminal activity is lower as most wrongdoings are committed in the dark. Furthermore, thanks to shifting the time people use less…
