convention and also people from all over the world because the National Convention is an occasion where many people watch. Obama’s point is to say how he feels about America because He says, “Tonight we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation.” He states that America has been through a lot and now we have rights, we have inalienable rights that are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. America has grown over the years and in my opinion, what he wants to say is that America is yet not…

Walter Benn Michaels starts off the piece with the topic of classism. But instead of taking the traditional approach, he decides to use the writings and opposing viewpoints of Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. As he breaks down the classism in The Great Gatsby, he introduces the way people seek separation and makes a transition into the topic of diversity. From there he explained how the living definition of diversity has changed over time and is now a widely accepted concept. However,…

James Madison: An American Legend James Madison truly led our country as president during the war of 1812 and he led ‘his’ nation against the British and canadian allies to help the nation not only reach peace but also propel our country to a prosperous future. After the British Navy abducted U.S. sailors and force them into their own Navy, Madison received a unanimous vote “79-49 for it in the House, 19-13 in the Senate.” Leadership can be defined as “The art of leading others to deliberately…

integrating into our society. Immigrants come for prominent opportunities, some come being legalized and others come illegally for various reasons -better education and lifestyle, one they couldn’t have their native countries-. Migration to the United States is a part of our country. Our democracy should allow for undocumented immigrants to have a higher education. Undocumented immigrants today are not allowed the access to a higher education, and this should be changed. Our country is made up…

war, Nixon first says that we will never be doing as well as we should be in the cold war. Then he says that we are doing very well, despite other opinions. American prestige is as high as it has ever been and Communist prestige is very low. He also states that when the United Nations voted on the Congo, there were seventy votes for our position and none for the communist point of view. He argues that Congress has cut a lot of funds for programs including cutting two billion from defense.…

widely believe that health care should be a citizen’s right. It is difficult to predict whether health care in United States is a right or a privilege, because the health care in United States is still going through extensive transformation. Affordable Care Act (ACA) has definitely provided more and more people an access to care they need, which implies health care in United States is becoming more of a right than a privileged. Is the Affordable Care Act…

filming this documentary and the questions that he asked people in America and in Canada about guns. He asked many questions to people that they couldn’t answer because no one knows the real reason why the homicide rates are so high in the United States of America. The summary of the movie was basically interviews with people and a few celebrities in America and normal people in Canada about the gun laws, homicide rates, and the tragic shootings at Columbine High School. I see that back in the…

Reading about the struggle for immigrants to receive healthcare is pretty disheartening. You imagine an individual or a family who goes through all the work of getting to the United States, establishing themselves with a job and a halfway decent place to live, and then working their hardest to contribute to society, but at the end of the day, they can’t get healthcare coverage either because of their status or the fact that they work jobs in a sector that provides little to no coverage. The…

Racial inequality is a major problem in the USA and has only seemed to continue growing. When we take a look at the history of America we see it to be riddled with misfortune for those who have some pigmentation in their skin. African made in to slaves, Asians lured under pretenses of money only to end up in mines or working on the railroad tracks, Latinos escaping the cartel to end up being pushed around, and the list goes on. We see the Latino and Black community being smeared while the white…

In 1970, the United States government came up with the word to describe a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race. This is a word we are all familiar with when it comes to referring to this group of people. This word is “Hispanic.” At the present time, the United States Census Bureau defines race in five categories and does not specifically define Hispanic with a category of its own. The categories include: white…
