President

policy making continues to be a struggle in the National Security Council. As the policy makers that designed NSA 47 intended, different Presidents have implemented the NSC in different ways. The first, President Truman, hardly used it at all. Even in the buildup to the Korean War Truman sparingly called meetings of the NSC. It would not be until President Eisenhower that the NSC’s regimental structure would be used to make recommendations on national security. Therefore, policy makers…

President Carter sets forth a very compelling case for preserving the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. This is quite an important issue as noted by this former President and gives interesting personal details to further his arguments. He uses his vast experience in dealing with complex issues such as the environment to make his point that the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge should remain untouched. Considering the evidence first mentioned in this passage, the President uses his personal…

President Roosevelt was not justified for ordering the Execution Order 9066. This order was completely unnecessary because many of the Japanese Americans were fighting in the war for the United States. Also this order took away the Constitutional rights of American citizens, the foundation of the United States of America. Lastly one of the main factors President Roosevelt used to order this order was listed under false pretenses and highly exaggerated to the point where Roosevelt felt it…

We might be the master of our thoughts, still we are slaves of our emotions. President Bush made his 9/11 speech to acknowledge the crime committed, adress what he is going to do, and show his sorrow for the victims and families of the victims. He uses countless statements to appeal to emotions. He attempts to instill sorrow into the emotions of Americans as well as give them a sense of much needed security after a terroristic crime. In the first sentence he proceeds to address the problem at…

Every sitting President of the United States of America has attempted to make the country safer by implementing their specific crime control policies. Every policy proposed and if implemented will not have full public support, but keeping the entire populace safe and secure is what ultimately matters. During the eight year tenure of President Barrack Obama, the main focus of his crime policy centralized around gun control and easing of drug sentencing requirements. Well the president did attempt…

In the articles, “Executive Power Run Amok” and “What Can the President Really Do,” both authors mainly discussed about what rights a president whether has and took President Donald Trump’s actions as an example to show how the executive branch runs amok, or behaves disruptively. Presidential candidates make lots of promises such as repeal unpopular laws and lower taxes. Yet, those promises won’t be completely fulfilled since a president’s power will be limited by the other two branches. Today,…

People were struggling and needed help from someone with competency. People would go to the streets and would build small huts out of scrap wood, and call them “Hoovervilles”. Throughout the Great Depression, people were becoming homeless and unemployed because President Hoover didn’t do anything to try and help them. Throughout…

In my opinion most of the 44 presidents have been good to descent guys. But my all-time favorite is number sixteen the one and only Abraham Lincoln. Born in Hodgenville, Kentucky in 1809 he grew up to be one of the most influential presidents. He was selected in to office in 1861 until 1865 when he was killed. He’s my favorite because he lead the civil war, because he abolished slavery, and risen from the poor beginnings to become a president. Probably the most important thing he did was to…
