...With the November presidential election coming up in only a matter of weeks, Americans are burdened with a very tough decision. Who should we elect as our next president? Should we choose Hillary Clinton, who seems untrustworthy but has the political experience? Or should we choose Donald Trump, who has had absolutely no political exposure, but does seem genuinely invested in bettering the United States? Either way, U.S. citizens are hampered with an extremely hard choice when it comes to selecting the next president of the United States. Both candidates are a bit lacking in the trustworthy department. Hillary is involved in an email scandal where she used a private email server and deleted thousands of important emails while she was Secretary of State. This can make Americans feel unprotected and unsure of what these emails were about, why she felt the need to use a private server, and how the emails may affect Americans. The article “FBI releases Hillary Clinton email report” written by Tal Kopan and Evan Perez, provides information on how the FBI did not feel the evidence from the emails was worthy of persecution. This can strengthen democrats’ support for Hillary. Donald...

...writing “affair” with, Hillary and Bill Clinton tried to keep sealed many scandals. Some include White Water, the bimbo eruption to the recent Benghazi, and email server scandals. They continually surround her and her ex-President husband like no other politicians in recent memory. The cattle future scandal, or should we call it “Cattlegate”, was one of the first “ethical dilemma” problems of the early Bill and Hillary to rise to political prominence. This financial scandal occurred during 1978 and 1979, and now seems to be mostly forgotten amongst all the other scandals that are nothing more than tabloid headline grabbers. Hillary made a fortune from cattle future trading. She made a whopping $98,540 in 1978-1979 from these trades,...

...rift between the public and the government continues to grow well into the 21st Century. What started in the wake of the Tet Offensive of ’68, has once reared its ugly head again with the invasion of Iraq in 2003, and most recently extended in the Benghazi scandal of 2012 has led the American to lose absolute trust in the United...

...wholeheartedly. Hillary Clinton would not be a fitting president as she is a hypocrite, a writer of her own rules, and a blatant liar. To begin, Hillary Clinton is the world’s biggest hypocrite. She publicly says one thing, and then she turns around and does the exact opposite. Mrs. Clinton has formally announced, multiple times, her devotion to women’s rights and abolishing the gender wage gap. It seems like an innocent claim. However, the Daily Caller did some digging in her public IRS filings. It turns out that male executives make about...

...After a very long two years of campaigning the day has finally come to elect a new President of the United States. This campaign has been a situation short of complete chaos, it's provided many people across the world with their nightly entertainment hearing what Trump, Clinton and the few others had to say about important issues. The President of the United States should hold certain qualities that would allow them to serve their term with somewhat of a grace and to turn the country into a more positive direction, to do this they need the proper experience. Hillary Clinton is the candidate most prepared to become the President of the United states because of her long political experience, her many accomplishments and the simple fact that she...

...Media Bias American National Government After reading the article “Report from the Ombudsman” from Brill’s Content (ccis.ucourses.com/content) solidified the thoughts I had on the media being biased in their views. To get the truth you have to watch at least three different news channels and then research multiple sites on the Web. The ten simple questions he discussed in the article will make deciding if the content being reported is worth listening to. One of the key issues I see with journalists is they have their own agendas and are not secure enough in their position to have it questioned or debated on television. They are quick to attack their “opponent” with a barrage of unchecked fact-based questions and will not allow their victims a proper platform to respond. If the conversation is not going the way they want it to they will simply “run out of time” and go to a commercial break. Journalists say they are just doing their jobs and want the truth, but I know it’s merely for ratings and pushing their agenda. In researching the two websites listed in the content area, the Media Research Center (MRC) and Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), I’ve come to the conclusion that there will always be bias in today’s media. The MRC is a pro Democratic website looking for biased media content that favor the “Right”, with FAIR doing the same for the “Left”. One New York Times article written by Neil Irwin was up for debate on FAIR’s website. The article was titled...

...You also need to address the issues revolving around Benghazi and your email scandals, and perhaps by admitting you made mistakes and have learned from those mistakes you will gain more votes from Democrats, but you should not focus primarily on these negative issues. I suggest you stress the issues of our economy and climate change. We need to work on improving the economy, and therefore improving the lives of every citizen. Stress that we need to recover from the recession that occurred during Obama’s presidency. Your strong growth, fair growth, long-term growth plan is well thought out and well supported, and you need to continue to emphasize its importance. You are also very wise to enforce the “American dream” mindset, as it definitely resonates with both Minorities and Republicans (Clinton, Hillary). Another major issue you need to address is climate change. It is an emotional issue that not a lot of people are informed about, so if you are the one to inform them about it and the solutions that you will offer, you could benefit greatly. Because they will have heard good ideas from you, they will associate you with helping our climate, and will want to vote for...

...Richard Nixon was one of our worst Presidents in America history. He was about to be impeached for the Watergate scandal, but Nixon resigned before it could happen. President Nixon was involved with many different issues during his presidency. During the Cold War, people in America protested over our involvement. There were many protests took place all over the country. People were not happy with the Nixon Administration. The National Guard shot protesters at Kent State University. Some people believe that President Nixon had them killed, so people would see that they should protest. If he really ordered to have that done, then he is an awful man. I believe people do have the right to voice their own opinion, protesting may not always be the...

...Square to call for Hosni Mubarak to step down. After three decades in power, Mr Mubarak withstood only three weeks of strife. Although frail, he eventually stood trial (due to resume soon) for the deaths that occurred when his security forces tried to quash the protests. Elsewhere, Yemen’s president fled in June and eventually signed a transition deal to end his 33-year reign; Saudi troops helped to put down unrest in Bahrain; and reform was embraced in Morocco and Jordan. But the Arab spring was met with stiff resistance in Syria, where protests were brutally put down by Bashar Assad’s regime, resulting in over 7,000 deaths so far. In Libya Muammar Qaddafi caused a civil war after he tried to crush an opposition movement that spread from Benghazi. NATO aircraft enforced a no-fly zone, endorsed by the Arab League, in support of the rebels. After a summer of conflict, Qaddafi was captured by rebels in his home town and swiftly killed. He had ruled Libya since 1969. Russia’s Prime Minister, Vladimir Putin, hatched a plan to run for president again in 2012. But his coronation might not run so smoothly this time. His United Russia party did not do as well as expected in parliamentary elections (amid allegations of ballot fraud), after which anti-Putin...
