Bill Clinton

Politicians tend to lie about what they plan to do just, so they can attract voters and become elected. Hopefully some Americans have faith in the President for accomplishing their goals.

Presidency Many ads have come across my television within the last few months, and some ads are about the upcoming presidential election.

I have hardly seen ads that aren’t approved by Hillary Clinton about the election, which is why I was so surprised to see find this ad online. This ad starts out by showing a picture of the White House, and in the background, it appears to be storming. While this…

One of the greatest quote ever said in a speech is by U.S. President John F. Kennedy “And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country.” John F Kennedy speech performance was one of the most memorable because he did really good in his speech.

of a universal savings account and an increase in the size of the military. Obviously not all of these ideas transpired due to the roadblock of Congress. From researching these topics, it became clear that congress is not likely to pass stand-alone bills but when they are worked into larger legislation they are much more likely to make it through.

For Mock Congress, I had to do Bills Five. Bill Five was a bill to incentivize voting. This bill said that everyone who votes should get a certain amount of tax credit. The idea of the bill was that if you give people an incentive, more people would vote. Being a Democrat, I was assigned to create a speech against this bill. One of the main points I made during my speech was the quality of the voters would drop (Shineman). This is not saying that certain people should not vote based on class,…

In The Once and Future Liberal, Mark Lilla addresses the failures of American liberalism over two generations. Despite the prominence of democrats in the White House along with notable policy influence, the vision of small government and the self-reliant individual introduced by Reagan has continued to dominate political ideology for nearly forty years.

On May 10th, 1915 the president at the time, Woodrow Wilson, gave a speech about welcoming new members into American society.

Nowadays some people have views on accepting people into American society, ways that are different from Woodrow Wilson. One person who has different views is the current US President Donald Trump. Wilson believes that immigrants should come…
