Genetically Modified Food as a Way of Feeding the Rich Genetic modification is a huge step in human evolution, but, unfortunately, it is not clear to what direction the step is made. The whole idea of genetic modification is to invent organisms that can adapt to any natural disasters, and, most likely, it is the only way to deal with hunger. However, if we were capable and knowledgeable enough to distinguish genetically modified foods from natural ones, what would we choose? Obviously, we would…

Roosevelt, like many other war time leaders, expressed his ideas through a well thought out and influential speech. His Day of Infamy speech is…

Dewey would defeat Democratic Harry S. Truman and they would finally receive a Republican in office after a long period of time. The election had six candidates but only four were important which included Harry S. Truman, Thomas E. Dewey, J.Strom Thurmond, and Henry Wallace. The parties that were…
