Inauguration of Barack Obama

Political Polarization “The unanswered question of American politics in this era is whether our divided political system can function in times of stress” (Ezra Klein). Our political system is comprised of two parties with opposite views on important topics. When the representatives of these parties experience more constraint to vote towards their party 's stance on issues they are less likely to compromise and therefore get less accomplished. This is called political polarization. Political…

Our current president Barack Obama was to require all U.S police officers to wear body cameras, the president said he wants to ensure that the United States isn’t creating a “militarized culture” within law enforcement.

President Barack want to create a trust between law enforcement…

I am sitting down to finish this paper on Saturday night. I had decided to not complete this paper and you ask “Because you ran out of time?” …“Or is out of sheer defiance?!? (McIntosh)” Honestly, neither of those reasons. I had sat down no less than five different times over the course of the last week to complete this paper. At first I assumed this would be the easiest paper that I had written all semester for American Ethnicity. I thought this was because not only did I enjoy the reading and…

The United States is most focused on girls and boys education. Through the past and until now education is interesting and more advanced. Education is a part of every girl and boy life in America. One example would be the “Common Core Standards” which is meant to help and prepare students for college and future life. Also, tests and assessments are also growing. There is a set of new graduation expectations and requirements. In order to help and be successful as a student we need to remove the…

Health care costs are still rather high and can be hard to afford for the self-employed population. German self-employed population are responsible for employee and employer costs in the sick fund insurance. The costs runs in comparison with Obama care purchased base insurance plans. Both health care systems are based off fee for service plans which can drive up costs due to providers performing unnecessary tests to increase earnings.

majority fall in embarrassment. Historically speaking an independent woman was frowned upon and in some cases, they still are and a black African American was not even considered to be politically capable of running a country until 2008 when Barak Obama became president of the United States. Men and woman, both black and white throughout history have been underestimated and thrown to the side with the minority who accepted them. It takes a special leader from…

people “over emphasize” education, while most disagree. Michelle Obama explained to the African American society how it’s important to “…invest in your education, especially Africa’s youth.” Michelle is highly educated on these types of issues and knows the different daily struggles African Americans experience to this day. Getting informed on them, and knowing different ways around it, along with ways to prevent it is key. As Michelle Obama also said, “Mandela 's most important quote, of the…

Ever since the birth of the United States, one of the largest controversial issues pertaining to the nation has been the debate over immigration control. Whether the influx of individuals derives from Central America or overseas, the issue continues to be discussed due to the significant impact on our society.

The 2016 presidential election is fast approaching, and as I write this it is official that the presidency will be between the Republican nominee Donald J. Trump, and the Democratic nominee Hillary R. Clinton. It wasn’t quite simple for me to choose between the two nominees. Hence, I doubt that neither of them are creditable enough to serve the country. Most likely the majority of Americans will speculate that they do not have a preference between the two candidates. Nevertheless, I evaluated…
