Democrats feel the same way about conservatives. They don’t just feel they have better ideas or their contenders are ill-advised, but also that the other side is more concerned in adherent gain than the welfare of the country. Many of the more extreme partisans simply refuse to work with the other side. The consequence is that the democratic and republican parties have the nation in a choke hold. This intensity of aggression is a direct cause of gridlock. The…

that partisans don’t know the correct answer, but they allow their beliefs to interfere with their response. My lack of certainty was not due to lack of knowledge, although that is how I justified it to myself at the time. In a past university course, I had read multiple sources on this subject and had learned that based on the majority of scientific findings GMOs are safe. Being uninformed did not create the problem, rather being hesitant to accept the information. When surveyed partisans may…

Reform movements such as the second great awakening and the abolitionist movement substantially defined American society during the mid-19th century, from the spread of Protestantism to growing anti-slavery sentiment in the north, these movements…

Criticisms regarding elections only reinforce Justice O’Connor’s claim that judicial elections represent an opportunity for partisans and special interests to install judges who will answer to them. In Citizens United v Federal Election Commission , by allowing such groups to spend without limits on communication tools during campaigns, the Supreme Court upheld these concerns. According to the majority, spending represents an exercise of free speech, a right guaranteed by the First Amendment ,…

Since March of 2010, the American people have had to suffer under the incredible economic burden of the Affordable Care Act—Obamacare. This legislation, passed by totally partisan votes in the House and Senate and signed into law by the most divisive and partisan President in American history, has tragically but predictably resulted in runaway costs, websites that don’t work, greater rationing of care, higher premiums, less competition and fewer choices. Obamacare has raised the economic…

and serious news on people’s partisan views. Stroud and Muddiman argue that the tendency for citizens to obtain and select political information agreeing with their predispositions has been widely demonstrated. The experiment examines if exposure to satirical news affects partisan tolerance compared with serious news.

for one party, often the incumbents’ party, with only 35 competitive House districts in 2012, compared to 103 a decade earlier. While the ideological differentiation poses a challenge to ever finding common ground on issues of policy, the narrow partisan division of seats means that any policy victory could lead to a change in control of either chamber. These two characteristics of the temporary Congress make it even harder for policy reconciliation to take…

Over 100,000 people died in the Bosnian War, as a result of the disintegration of Yugoslavia, and it’s leader, Josip Tito, was not even alive. A dictator is someone who has taken control over a country and transformed it into a state of totalitarianism, usually by means of force, although Josip Tito not only had a strong military but a wide base of support that allowed him to arise. His policies and ideas were more liberal and he leaned towards a more democratic society, however there were…
