Methodology The aim of the analysis is to study the effects that late night political comedy has on politics. While these are both different and well-respected programs that provide viewers with a hardheaded and a playful understanding of current affairs, there is a body of a political frame of mind that can be searched and characterized in a style that can be looked at as information and still seem entertaining. The quantitative analysis, which will be in the shape of an online survey, will…

Ronald Reagan was the 40th president of the United States and he served two terms, from 1981-1989. He defeated Jimmy Carter in a landslide of four hundred eighty-nine electoral votes to forty-nine in the election (Reagan). His campaign phrase was “Are you better than you were four years ago?

Reagan studied economics and sociology at Eureka College and became…

What would our life be like now if we never had Ronald Reagan? Would it be the same or would there be a massive difference? People say life would have been better without him, but other disagree, many others. People say he was an amazing president and life would be horrible if it wasn’t for him.

All these things…
