...After reading this article and watching the interview, my mouth hung open in awe. My brain, scrambled now, sorted through the statements made in the video. Cheryl Rios, the CEO of a small company in Texas, proclaimed that Hillary Clinton's hormonal issues as a woman make her unjust to be the president of the United States. The irony of the situation made me wonder if this article would have been more suitable for The Onion instead of CNN. I would like to bring to your attention some of the contradiction of this situation. Ms. Rios states that Mrs. Clinton's female hormones will create issues for her as a leader. The absolute lack of logic in her claim is baffling. Making a statement about Clinton's political history causing her to be a weak...

...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...

...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...

...campaign, “This time vote like your whole world depended on it” for Richard Nixon’s campaign, and “Stronger together” for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. These are all examples of a rhetorical artifact that fits within a political-slogan-type genre. For my second paper, I will be analyzing Barack Obama’s slogan from his 2008 campaign. His slogan is as follows: “Change We Can Believe In” (Obama 2008). I believe this slogan follows the proper guidelines and structure of the many political slogans that have come before...

...In January of this year, The Women’s March engaged the attention of the public once again. In 1913, the first Women’s March took place. At this time, the suffragists were marching for voting rights, civil rights, and economic equality. This march attracted over 5,000 women. In the early 1970’s the Equal Rights Amendment took place. The biggest march took place in 1978 in Washington, where over 100,000 women joined this event to march for an extension of the ratification deadline. In 2000, on Mother’s Day, over 750,000 women marched for stricter gun control. These women were joined by First Lady Hillary Clinton, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Tipper Gore and Rosie O’Donnell, as well as other celebrities. In Washington in 2004, over a half a million...

...Rhetorical Analysis: Why Tipping is Wrong Tipping is seen as a financial support for food-industry workers. However, people are against this practice and wanting to get rid of it. Helping do so, an idea of a state minimum wage has appeared. Except, tipping has been a normal practice through history appreciating someone’s hard work. Except, a New York restraunt owner Danny Meyer wants to get rid of tipping. While the idea of a $15 minimum wage will replace tipping and give a better support for these workers. While, there’s also a huge complaint of sexual harassment claims from the waitress as they have to put up with degrading and intolerable customers. The practice of tipping workers has been seen through history. In Europe, tipping originated in aristocratic homes. When it finally made its way to America, the expression of tipping was to tell another they did a good job. It soon made its way into the working system and has been a financial support for most waitress. Except, “it called the practice undemocratic and un-American.” (Saru Jayaraman) Leading to “a powerful anti-tipping movement” (Saru Jayaraman) meaning the idea of getting rid of this practice has been around for some time now....

...Rhetorical Analysis of David Zuckerman (Before the Election) It is a gripping time in today’s America, as now is the time to decide the people who are going to run this country. In many people's eyes the stakes are particularly high, as the possible political leaders in today's America have vastly different ideas. This is mostly due to the candidates running for president, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. There have been many past candidates that had the chance of becoming president, one of the more prominent ones being Bernie Sanders. Ever since Sanders came around, he has created a very big progressive follower base, this is especially true here in Vermont. However since he lost, many people are looking elsewhere to find someone similar...

...Flaws in the OJ Simpson Case Though the OJ Simpson Case was among the cases which received the largest followership in the history of America court cases, there were so many flaws, weaknesses and failures which were witnessed in the course of the case and even in the delivery of the judgment (Allen, 1996). Though OJ Simpson was found innocent of the crime that involved the death of his ex-wife, there is a lot of evidence which shows that the judgment of the case could have been otherwise. To begin with, the first flaw to this case was that the media was too much involved. Since OJ Simpson was a celebrity, this case attracted many media platforms and this made the case be talked everyone. The problem with the media is that most of the media platforms failed to capture and disperse information concerning the real issue in the case; rather they talked about other issues which were not of significant in the case. Most media platforms focused on the racial orientation of OJ Simpson. Since he was a black American, the media focused mainly on his race rather than the crime that had been committed in this case and for this reason, the judges seems to have changed their might on the outcome of the case. The judge’s decision seems to have been influenced by the way the media talked about racial orientation of the OJ Simpson. If the outcome of the case was otherwise, this could have sparked a lot of tension in US and there it may have pone of the reasons why the case outcome was in...

...downplayed some of the other deep-seated underpinnings of soft power, which this article argues lie in the dynamics of affect. Building upon the International Relations affect and aesthetics literatures, this article develops the concept of soft power as rooted in the political dynamics of emotion and introduces the concept of affective investment. The attraction of soft power stems not only from its cultural influence or narrative construction, but more fundamentally from audiences’ affective investments in the images of identity that it produces. The empirical import of these ideas is offered in an analysis of the construction of American attraction in the war on terror. Keywords Affect, discourse, emotion, narrative, Nye, soft power Introduction In her confirmation hearings in January 2009 before the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton argued that to deal with a multiplicity of pressing global issues, the US ‘must...

...___________________________ LIVING HISTORY Hillary Rodham Clinton Simon & Schuster New York • London • Toronto • Sydney • Singapore To my parents, my husband, my daughter and all the good souls around the world whose inspiration, prayers, support and love blessed my heart and sustained me in the years of living history. AUTHOR’S NOTE In 1959, I wrote my autobiography for an assignment in sixth grade. In twenty-nine pages, most half-filled with earnest scrawl, I described my parents, brothers, pets, house, hobbies, school, sports and plans for the future. Forty-two years later, I began writing another memoir, this one about the eight years I spent in the White House living history with Bill Clinton. I quickly realized that I couldn’t explain my life as First Lady without going back to the beginning―how I became the woman I was that first day I walked into the White House on January 20, 1993, to take on a new role and experiences that would test and transform me in unexpected ways. By the time I crossed the threshold of the White House, I had been shaped by my family upbringing, education, religious faith and all that I had learned before―as the daughter of a staunch conservative father and a more liberal mother, a student activist, an advocate for children, a lawyer, Bill’s wife and Chelsea’s mom. For each chapter, there were more ideas I wanted to discuss than space allowed; more people to include than could be named; more places visited than could be described...

PREFACE Rationale We agreed to produce the instructor’s manual for the sixth edition of A First Look at Communication Theory because it’s a first-rate book and because we enjoy talking and writing about pedagogy. Yet when we recall the discussions we’ve had with colleagues about instructor’s manuals over the years, two unnerving comments stick with us: “I don’t find them much help”; and (even worse) “I never look at them.” And, if the truth be told, we were often the people making such points! With these statements in mind, we have done some serious soul-searching about the texts that so many teachers—ourselves...

Acquire skills for writing an effective argumentative essay rom August 1987 until January 2007, Alan Greenspan was chairman of the Federal Reserve Board (“the Fed”). Because any remark he made about U.S. monetary policy could cause markets all over the world to fluctuate wildly, he developed a complicated way of speaking that came to be known as “Fedspeak.” Here’s an example: It is a tricky problem to find the particular calibration in timing that would be appropriate to 2/9/2016 12:17 PM 3 of 56 stem the acceleration in risk premiums created by falling incomes without prematurely aborting the decline in the inflation-generated risk premiums.* Greenspan has admitted that such remarks were not really intended to be understood. Asked to give an example by commenting on the weather, Greenspan replied, I would generally expect that today in Washington, D.C., the probability of changes in the weather is highly uncertain. But we are monitoring the data in such a manner that we will be able to update people on changes that are important.* Page 70 2/9/2016 12:17 PM This tells us nothing about the weather...
