Obama was elected, people were saying that we are going to hell in a hand basket and people are still complaining and bitching about having a black President. So far he has had some pretty good ideas, and addressed some major points in his Inaugaral Address that America is facing today. Pres. Obama has the ability and strength to carry on this nation to restore the damage that has been done in the past eight years. So far he has proven that he can over come all of the negativity that has been spilled around him because of his skin color.
Safire discusses how Lincoln used the “Declaration of Independence when stating “that all men are created equal” (Safire 42). Safire continues discussing this same idea in the eighth paragraph to highlight his argument about the image of birth with the wording of the beginning of the “Declaration of Independence.” Safire also discusses how Lincoln, like many other speechwriters, employ other great speakers into their speeches when discussing how Lincoln used Reverend Theodore Parker’s words in the conclusion of his speech, but that “Lincoln, . . ., dropped the ‘alls’ and made the phrase his own” (43). Wood also analyzes Obama’s use of references in his election night speech.
When President Obama first stepped into office it was like taking in a pure breath of fresh air. Most of us, assumed that he was the solution to all problems, such as, the economic break down lead by the Bush Administration, the issues on health insurance, education, the low rate of job, and etc. Obama’s Gallup approval rating stood at a 68 percent; unfortunately many of those people supporting the President have shifted perception. The reasons for Obama’s decrease in popularity are varied throughout the nation, but the most important are the messy promises he offered to the people. Some include the health care reform issues, his sense of an inhospitable business climate and the growth of government spending under Obama.
Immigration Immigrants in todays’ society come to America for a better life, opportunities, and to be free. The Hispanics will do whatever it takes to any extreme to get beyond our borders to have the possibilities we ensure. The traffic of illegal immigrants in America currently is a problem we face because, they have taken the jobs some Americans could obtain to support their families in todays economy. We must find extract the reasons these immigrants flock to America because they’re taking jobs away from Americans during this horrid economy. Illegal immigrants have broken the law by sneaking across the borders of the United States of America.

immigration laws in america I agree with Richard raynor on allowing illegal immigrants to stay America. Immigrants work for cheap labor and help the economy grow. Not all immigrants are bad and some leave in a really bad environment. I think it would be a blessing for them to come to America for a better opportunity. Immigrants are the reason America is so powerful today.
We don't succeed when a few at the top do well while everyone else struggles to get by -- we're better off when everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same rules. When Bill Clinton was president, he believed that if America invested in the skills and ideas of its people, good jobs and businesses would follow. His economic plan asked the wealthiest Americans to pay a little more so we could reduce our deficit and still invest in job training and education, research and technology, better health care and a dignified retirement. And what happened? By the end of his second term, our economy created 23 million new jobs.
Analyzing and fighting for our American policies and government. Last but not least, we as citizens need to control this economy and see what is really in our pockets. Being an upcoming freshman and a high-school graduate, scholars need to realize the oppurtunity we have to change the world, and have a huge impact in tomorrow’s world. It’s a luxury to have a free education to minorities, and many different physical races, ethnic backgrounds, and of course various religions. On the other hand, the education we as students receive can categorize as a national concern because as a nation we can’t have big percentage drops in tests that challenge our minds for the real world which we will encounter.
One great solution that was raised recently, was that of “legalizing” all of the eleven million illegal immigrants within the United States. Doing so, they would have to all come forward, go through extensive background checks, and also begin paying taxes and penalty’s for being illegal in the first place. John McCain came forward with the conclusion that this “solution” would not work in any way, shape, or form. Why in the world would these illegal immigrants want to do this without any incentive? Unless you are going to offer a sort of “reward” for coming forward, this just wouldn’t work.
3/2/2011 Fixing America’s Immigration Issues The United States due to increasing economic concern needs to address our current immigration policies. An estimated 12 million illegal immigrants are in the United States and this number is increasing every year. In many areas illegal immigrants can receive public assistance including education, welfare and medical care without paying in taxes. Immigration reforms could help in reducing the national debt while allowing us to retain many of the current benefits given to American citizens. The American public in general realizes reform must take place, but the direction the policy reform should to take is still very much up in the air.
