Jim Gilmore When it comes to Republican candidate Jim Gilmore, the student that was a member of the University of Virginia’s Republican organization, most focused issues are about preserving the second amendment and making sure that no assault weapon ban exist, repairing America’s defense, and restoring America’s economy.

Feel the Bern As the elections to determine the next president of the United States draw nearer, the masses are rallying nationwide, attending political debates and public speeches to see which candidate offers them the best promises. Amidst all the candidates there is one man, a man who according to the youth in America: seems to “genuinely care for this country”. This man is none other than Bernie Sanders. Sanders is a great choice because he fights for women’s equity (wage wise),…

Marathon, a movie theatre in Aurora Colorado, an elementary school in Sandy Hook, and a church in Charleston, South Carolina. All of these tragic events that rocked Americans to the core, and also all events that we have bounced back from. As President Obama said after Charleston shooting, ” I’ve had to make statements like this too many times. Communities like this have had to endure tragedies like this too many times.” Maybe not all of us are totally healed from these events, but we are…

A famous example of someone who successfully utilizes kairos is President Barack Obama. Much of his presidential success can be contributed to his persuasive and engaging speeches which affect people’s emotions and ultimately, their actions in the polls. After winning the primary election in the state of South Carolina, he performed a speech entitled “Yes, we can change.” He caters the entire speech specifically to the people he is addressing; every section of his speech takes into consideration…

Misty Copeland and Hilary Rodham Clinton, though the two are worlds apart, I find similarities between the pair that I admire. They are trailblazers, having the courage to be symbols of strength and continue to grow in their fields. Clinton is a political force that has been in some kind of government role over the past four decades. HRC is most commonly known at the moment for being the wife of former president Bill Clinton and for her stabs at presidency. Misty Copeland is a renowned ballerina…

Unity, Behind Cause, Through Rhetoric The presidential reign of Barack Obama was as improbable as it was successful. At the end of Bush’s initial tenure as president, the American people were in need of change. In the aftermath of all the controversy surrounding George Bush and his questionable political decisions, American open-mindedness was at an all-time high. A black president? Unheard of no longer. An opportunistic Barack Obama set his sights on the unachievable – to become the first black…

The upcoming presidential election is going to be a tough one this year. The citizens and states are having a hard time choosing between Donald J. Trump and Hillary Clinton. Though many people side with both Trump and Clinton. Though if the people vote third party that would hurt both Trump and Hillary, but hopefully I believe that they will vote for Trump. Though Trump is more fitting to become our next president than Hillary for many different reasons. Like in their ideas about taxes, they…

President Obama, but he made sure to document his dislike for the President by writing a message for him along the landing strip of a Russian controlled airport in Syria. According to the Observer News, Putin isn't the only Russian who dislikes Obama. Apparently, the entire Russian population has come up with a nasty term for the United State's President, which has been printed on flyers, bumper stickers, and most recently, the airport landing strip in Syria. The message reads "Obama Schmoe,"…
