I saw the picture of a familiar flight, the picture made the color in my face drain and my entire body to completely turn stone cold. The picture was of Sully, my good old Co worker on that fateful day of January 15th. He was standing there in the picture staring back almost as he was saying hello.…

During the course of this essay I will consider the extent to which the economic crisis in Germany was a cause of Hitler being able to ascend to the position of Chancellor in 1933. The Depression in Germany led to people becoming desperate for a change of political system and ultimately resorting to radical parties (such as the newly formed Nazi party) to achieve this change. It will argue the validity of this title and present both sides of the question and mention some of the other factors…

The Pledge of Allegiance to school children is merely another part of their morning. While it does unify Americans under one flag and one promise, it actually excludes certain groups of people, specifically those who are not members of the monotheistic religion the nation was founded with: Christianity.
