...team of politics, Hillary and Bill Clinton. Both have held public leadership positions and were held to a certain standard. So we will take a look at the leader and their style as public administrators. Next we will compare the two styles, the effectiveness of their leadership and the impact of their genders as leaders. Then, we will take a look at their strengths and weaknesses and evaluate the effectiveness of their terms as public officials. Finally I will review my own strengths and weakness that would influence my ability to be a public leader. Public Leader Overview The transformational leadership (TL) is when leaders take their vision for the future and excite and motivate others to join in. Often times this vision is developed solely but the leader, but occasionally other levels of management and/or other organizational members. The transformational leader leads through charisma and motivation. Much like a coach, these leader encourage their followers to obtain the ultimate goal; often times through their own beliefs and personal values and strengths. Former president William “Bill” Clinton, fits in to the category of a transformational leader. During his presidency he was credited for having the ability of getting others to believe in his vison. As a transformational leader, the process that changes and transforms people by appealing to their followers’ values while creating a connection between the groups was an ability that President Clinton definitely posed...

...Yijun Hu COM1600a Apr.10. 2015 Week1 News News: How Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign machine will kick into gear By Anne Gearan and Philip Rucker April 10 Hillary Rodham Clinton will formally enter the presidential race with an announcement on Sunday followed by appearances on the campaign trail next week, three people familiar with her plans said on Friday, ending months of anticipation surrounding the overwhelming favorite for the Democratic nomination. Clinton plans to launch her campaign via social media and with a video on Sunday articulating her rationale for seeking the White House. She'll then travel to the first-in-the-nation caucus state of Iowa early next week for campaign events, these people said. She is expected to hold mostly small discussion events with voters designed to help the former secretary of state connect with ordinary Americans and listen to their concerns, forgoing the large rallies and traditional announcement speeches of some of her Republican rivals. Behind the scenes, meanwhile, Clinton's fundraising machine is revving up. Her top bundlers are plotting aggressive outreach to thousands of Democratic donors over the weekend and into next week urging them to immediately send checks and make donations online as soon as the Clinton campaign's Web site goes live. Democratic strategists, advisers and fundraisers described Clinton's plans only on the condition of anonymity because she and her team...

...As a first lady in 1993 to 2000, Halliry Clinton has ardent supported for women and children’s concerns. In 1995 Clinton led the U.S. delegation to the U.N. Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, where she indicated that “ women’s right are human rights.” Not only has she attribute to women’s rights when being the first lady, but she has continued to contribute to the cause as a secretary of states. This 2016 elections have been very controversial among different issues and candidates. Hillary Clinton has the potential, experience, and the guide from her husband, the 42nd President of the United States, to fulfill the presidency position. Over the past years Hillary Clinton has advocated and made adjustments in favor of women and she...

...opening of the World Series on April 4th, 1994. The President at the time, Bill Clinton, threw out the first pitch in Cleveland while his wife First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton threw out the first pitch in Chicago. Mrs. Clinton was the first First Lady in history to throw out a first pitch at a major league baseball game. Instead of writing about this historical event, however, reporters across the country ripped into the First Lady’s form and how she “throws like a girl”. The phrase “throwing like a girl” has become an offensive, almost derogatory term that shames some women and implies they do not possess the same athleticism as men. Fallows suggests that the answer to why they throw so differently must be more than just being a woman. Some people believe a man and a woman's shoulder are hinged differently, and that is the reason for the difference in the way...

...James Fallow’s argument makes a valid point: he is right about the fact that men and women are built the same, there is no physical difference between them. When Fallows starts the article he refers back to the time when Hillary Clinton threw the first pitch on opening day and looked like a girl while doing it, he includes that many newspapers referred to that as “throwing like a girl”. Fallows does a very good job of explaining why people said that Hillary Clinton was “throwing like a girl”. He mentioned some facts that made her look “like a girl”, her arm was too low, she was facing the target, and she was not holding the baseball the right way. To prove that women are not much different from men, Fallows talks to several professionals. One...

This advertisement mainly uses an appeal of pathos, emotional appeal,...

...Comm 301 May 8, 2014 A Pentadic Analysis of Hillary Clinton Interview The artifact we are analyzing for our study is a live television interview that Hillary Clinton was giving to San Francisco’s KTVU-TV in late February of 2008. This interview was broadcasted via television and is also available on YouTube and other video media sources. The interview was being hosted by a man named Ross McGowan of KTVU-TV to senator Hillary Clinton, and that within itself makes it a significant artifact. The live interview about healthcare that Hillary Clinton was giving had to be cut short when the New York senator began having a coughing fit. Prior to the cough attack, the interview was directed but not limited to the subject of health care. Senator Clinton was speaking of issues such as the pulling troops from the Iraq war, California’s mortgage crisis, Americas current health care system, and the idea of a universal health care system. In the end of the interview Clinton fails to answer the question regarding her husbands role in her campaign by coughing for the remainder of the interview abruptly ending it. Whether or not the actions by Clinton were intended, speculation of this interview arose. In 2000, Hillary Clinton became the first women to be elected a seat in the United States Senate. At first glance, Clinton’s aggrandizement to such a respectable political position seemed like a victory for herself and the ongoing women’s movement effort. However, the continual reminder of...

...of America. The 2008 election had four candidates that the media mainly focused on; Senator Joe Biden, Senator Obama, Governor Sarah Palin and Hilary Rodham Clinton. During the election process, the media had an abundance of racist remarks and sexist/gender comments. Surprisingly enough, the sexist/gender comments that were geared toward Governor Palin and Hilary Clinton outweighed the racist remarks about Senator Obama. Culture has shaped our expectations to not be used to seeing women in the upmost power in politics. Women have gender norm qualities that they are expected to keep up but men can easily learn them for political reasons. The negative connotations that come with being a woman hold them back in the political world. In the process of electing president for 2008, the media hashed out a lot of negative press on the female candidates of this race. Sarah Palin received the light end of the allegations. She wasn’t really called out of her name much but there were a few provocative cartoons or photoshoped images of her circling around. (Erbe 2008 ). There was one in particular of a model in a red, white and blue bikini while holding a rifle with Governor Palin face pasted on. Senator Clinton, on the other hand, sexist/ gender comments from the media were remarkably higher. Sheehy stated, “ I think Hillary Clinton came into this campaign empotionally-scarred from her eight years in the White House with that kind of attack constantly and all of the scandals and also having...

...privilege to vote a middle-aged, upper class white male into the highest office in the land, President of the United States of America. In November 2008, the people of the United States of America will vote for the forty-third individual to be elected as the President. Historically, middle-aged to a bit older white males have been the Democratic and Republican nominees for the highest office in the land, the position of President of the United States of America. The first elected President being George Washington elected into office in 1789. The 2008 Democratic Party has two remaining nominees that have changed the history of presidential elections, just by throwing their bids in to run for the presidency. For the first time a woman, Hillary Rodham Clinton and an African American, Barack Obama are contenders for the position of the forty-third President of the United States. I believe the change is taking place because the American people are sick of what this county has become. For the past eight years the country that was ‘the land of the free and home of the brave’, has become more of the ‘land of the working slave and the home of the afraid of what terrorist can do’, under the leadership of the current president George Bush. During his eight year term the United States has seen its share of bad times; from a devastating act of terrorism (911), the war in Iraq, the housing market crash and an economy that has never seen interest rates as low as they are and gas prices as high...

...Dangerous Women They fight with power, speak with persuasion and play with seduction. Their humor is cold and wet and they strive to make a name for themselves. They nurture and take care of their followers but they also make time to get down to business. Don’t worry, I knew what you were thinking, but this has nothing to do with any sort of political election, well almost nothing. For once this is about the women. For many centuries, women would seldom leave their houses. They weren’t tied up, or locked in, so why were they always there? Women worked and spent most of their time cleaning the house, doing dishes and taking care of her children because that is what society and men expected from all women back then. “They did what they could to assure that women carried out their supportive roles as faithful and deferential helpers and nurturing companions” (Hoffert, 15). Men were the breadwinners and were physically stronger than any women, or so they liked to believe. For men, their physical strength is what made them so powerful in the world and amongst the opposite sex. But unfortunately for the men, they forgot that women posses a strong sense of mental and emotional strength, making them extremely dangerous in any situation. Women were stepped on for so many years, and they were tired of being treated like flies. Of course they all wanted the perfect love story with the perfect family, but had ambitions to accomplish so much more. Women wanted to make it known to all...
