the world during June of 2004. The film’s foremost basis is that US President George W. Bush is, and has been from the start of his term, unfit for office and does not act in the interests of the American people. It is a no-holds-barred attack on the Bush management’s handling of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the War on Terror. In essence, this means that Fahrenheit 9/11 portrays the idea that President George W. Bush, as a repercussion of his political and commercial allegiance and fidelity to…

Although American society is drastically changing every day, one aspect of American culture continues to provide the U.S. government with vital information about U.S. officials, particularly public opinion. Public opinion “consists of the views held by the population of a state that influence those in power” (SparkNotes Editors). According to Willam Biano and David Cano in American Politics Today, public opinion matters for three reasons: (1) citizens’ political actions are driven by their…

I vividly remember the first time I got on my knees to pray. I was four-years-old, and I was with my mom. She taught me the Lord’s Prayer, and after that she told me to repeat these words: “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. And if I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take” (Johnstone). The last part of the prayer is what my family always said which was “bless mommy and daddy, and everyone in the whole wide world. Amen.” Saying these prayers and going…

The executive arm of the government under the President wields more power as compared to the Congress.

When we vote, we're actually just voting for the people that vote for president. Then, those people get together and cast their ballots for president, and can basically vote for whoever they want, regardless of who we vote for. In the year 2004, there was an elector who cast his ballot for someone called "John…

September 11th, 2001, a day forever etched in stone. As smoke rushed through Manhattan with debris raining from the formerly bright and clear sky, America knew that this day would result in drastic changes for the nation. Following the attack on the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers by hijackers on United Airlines Flight 175 and American Airlines Flight 11, people began to pour out of the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers as firefighters rushed in - firefighters whose legacy will never crumble.…

Unprecedented the 2000 Presidential Election is the riveting story about the battle for the Presidency in Florida and the undermining of democracy in America.

While the media seized on the controversy surrounding the poorly designed Butterfly Ballot, much larger civil rights abuses were overlooked. Focusing on events leading up to Election Day and the attempt to count legally cast votes in the days that followed,…
