Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton…..Who is the best candidate for President? The 2016 presidential campaign is in full swing. We have many candidates that feel they would be better fit at becoming President of the United States than the next. I have chosen two candidates that stood out to me on their differing views. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton differ on many issues, some of the views that they differ on are same sex marriage, education, and abortion. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton differ…

Should incarceration mean the eradication of basic civil liberties granted to every citizen of the United States under the Constitution? That answer should obviously be no, however in the United States penitentiary system the deprivation of the legal right to vote, also known as disenfranchisement, is quite common. So much so that as of 2006 it was estimated that 5.3 million people were declared ineligible to vote as a result of their conviction, 1.7 million of which have already completed their…

During the 2012 election the democrats are the ones with the higher voting numbers, and more than often it’s a Democrat that gets elected. Most of the votes rely on demographics however, particularly the voters of diverse race and ethnicities. The white vote isn’t weak but nonetheless the Hispanic vote is often the stronger one, especially during the 2004 election although the white vote was significantly stronger in the 2012 election and still serves as something of a threat as most whites…

The National Surveillance Agency was birthed as a result of alarmist politics. The terrorist attacks of 9/11 inspired a governmental overhaul of its security measures. With the entire world in shock, the United States federal government approached security threats with new governmental programs designed to protect the public. Although the public did not learn about this program until a few years after it was created, this program was the United States’ preemption against terrorists and enemies…

Once the Cold War came to an end, a major foreign crisis presented itself to the United States; this crisis is now a piece of America’s history. Towards the beginning of 1990, Saddam Hussein gave his army strict orders. Once the orders were given, Saddam vigorously spread his army across the border of Kuwait. Iraq’s army was very well equipped at this time and more than prepared to cause major damage and inflict war. Hussein was the well-known dictator of Iraq. People knew him as being…

1.) As explained in these weeks required essays and also the Saylor text “American Government and politics in the Information Age” Presidential vetoes are when congress sends a bill to the White House for the president, and the current president of the United States, at the time, can “return it” without any objections. To understand further how the veto from the president works, it starts with the latin translation of the word which is “I forbid” adding to the serious tone of the president…

War is an eclipse - the darkness that veils prosperity. It has always been associated with negativity and instability. Death and destruction follow every path and the minds of people are thrown into disorder. At times like these, many cannot see any array of hope. However, behind the darkness of the eclipse lies the light of the corona. The corona of positivity that stays strong within adversity and uncertainty. The population most affected by war are the soldiers and the victims. They live,…

Originally political parties were seen as skeptical by our Founding Fathers and therefore opposed. However, today our government has political parties. Political parties attempt to gain control of the government and influence its decisions. The two most influential parties in the American Government are the Republican and Democratic Party. These two parties have very contrasting beliefs. Democrats believe in “the need for intervention by government in the form of more and bigger programs” and…

From a personal perspective, Hillary Clinton is the best choice for President of the United States. There were several determining factors that contributed to this decision. First of all, her lifetime of experience in government and the law has provided her the skill set necessary for the highest office in the land. Next, the prospect of Hillary Clinton nominating a Supreme Court justice is very high. There is already a vacancy on the court that will swing the court ideologically from right to…
