Presidents of the United States

(Volkomer, 85). Public opinion is opinions expressed by citizens. In scandal, the citizens express their opinions and how they feel often. Public opinion was showed a lot when citizens wanted the president to do his job. Olivia ended up getting kidnapped because someone wanted to get back at the president. They knew that Olivia was the president’s weakness and that he would do anything for her. Political culture played a role in getting Olivia back because people who practiced the idea of…

President Obama is currently using propaganda to promote his Obamacare plan. I have seen ads on the television that try to gain support for his healthcare plan that is failing. These ads claim that since obamacare, the number of people who have healthcare insurance has increased exponentially. But, what they fail to mention is that the premiums of plans sold on healthcare.gov, will increase an average of 22% in 2017, with some states’ premiums increasing over 100% (abcnews…

Mary Wollstonecraft was brave for her time period. She was one of the first women to write about feminism and her views. Her essay not only made a point during her time period, but it still is the basis of all feminism today by proving that women are able to take a stand. The essay showed the differences between men and women, the multiple discriminations against women, and the way to find justice. Feminism is something that has merely been looked over in the past decade. Our society has been…

In the United States of America, its citizens would like to believe that the rule of law applies to everyone equally; however, current events create questions in regard to this theory. Democratic Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton’s lies have far out-shadowed those of her contenders; however, her lies are so often contextualized, excused, and forgotten because of who she is and the purpose her lying supposedly serves. The FBI and the Justice Department have given her a pass on crimes that…

the Constitution. Article 2 of the Constitution lays out the executive branch of the US government, and this is where the language creating the Electoral College is found. It says that “Each state shall appoint a number of electors, equal to the whole number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress” (U.S. Const. Art. II). This process designated 535 electors for the nation. The number of electors was later changed to 538 following the passage of the 23rd…

Killing Lincoln is a vivid retelling of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln written by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard. They detail the assassination from multiple viewpoints, including that of the president and his assassin. It could serve as a useful tool for scholars because the information is presented in a clear, chronological format, collected from multiple resources, and addresses some of the speculation and conspiracies surrounding this heinous act. It is written by two authors: Bill…

It later overwhelming passed in the House and Senate, and subsequently endorsed by President Richard Nixon. It then needed to be ratified by the State…

All the President’s Men was a film produced to examine the journalism investigation of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein which centered around President Nixon’s Watergate scandal, in result of the break in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters. Unable to grasp the full nature of the scandal at the time, the investigation put forth by Woodward and Bernstein would eventually uncover a deep knowledge of the break in and attempts the Nixon’s administration went through to cover it up.…

the article “What Suffering Does,” by New York Times columnist and PBS News Hour commentator, David Brooks, digs into this idea through claims that suffering plays a major role in people’s lives because it helps them grow as people (Behrens). Brooks states that happiness is just one piece of “the human drama” and suffering is the other (Behrens). Brooks’ topic of discussion is relevant in everyone’s lives because it is a topic everyone experiences first-hand, and he logically argues through…

jungle in terms of economic, political, and social stature. As America has made its journey through the times there have been many inspirational, historic figures that put the success of the United States right on their backs. These icons have pathed America to success and fulfillment for many days to come. Presidents are a big impact on how exactly this super country got here and how it is run today by which citizens come here to find opportunities and a life that they can be proud of if they…
