Presidential Debate 2012 Tuesday’s debate was punchy between President Obama and Mitt Romney. The debate opened with testy exchanges on energy in which the president accused Romney of ignoring renewable power. But Romney, too, attacked Obama for allowing over rising gasoline prices and faking support for fossil fuels. What was out of the ordinary was that, in the last Presidential Debate, Romney had been the aggressor while Obama was calm and not as irritated. In my personal opinion, I think Obama showed that he can lead the U.S. even in crucial times and that he will fight for us and still manage to keep a positive attitude.
The halftime super bowl commercial truly does support the idea of the company’s persistence. Marchionne took on the once thought impossible task with the help of the Bush and Obama administration. Still, Several politicians, such as Karl Rove, who argues that the ad was a strategically placed commercial used to praise and support Obama during the 2012 reelection, feeling the need to “repay their political patrons,” (Stewart). Although these ideas are brought about, Marchionne continues to stand on his current position over the ad. “We are as apolitical as you can make us…” states Marchionne; he continues to say the ad was a tribute to Chrysler employees, and how the ad was used “because it says something…about the resilience of America,” (Bury).
There are several arguments as to why Senator, Hillary Clinton lost the nomination for the Democrats, some being more valid than others. I have spent some time thinking reasons myself, so I asked opinions of family members, to see if they could be validated. Someone could certainly argue that the media was really unfair to her throughout the process. There were also issue with Bill Clinton. Many say he was a dagger in her whole campaign.
Because of the lack of passion, the middle or center most position will never garner the enthusiasm that fuels the fiery rhetoric and mass protests that the more polar positions wield. But I believe that by far, the most productive and sustainable legislation and business practices always come from the center. Therefore it is my recommendation that the public at large look at the lessons of the past and see that neither a pro-business nor a pro-regulatory climate is the most beneficial one. I believe that the best answer, the best solution, the most sustainable outcome will be the one closest to the center.

It was all a plot to dehumanise us, to allow our oppressors to rationalise their actions, and reduced us slaves to animal property- as implied by the term “ chattel slavery. " This made our masters perceive us as inhuman property, and made us perceive ourselves as inhuman property as well. I still wonder, why must the southern states of America’s economy revolve around agriculture and slavery? Even after the industrial revolutions impact on the Northern states, why must the Southern state appear oblivious to the urbanisation. Was it because Thomas Jefferson heavily idealised agrarian farming, or is it impudence?
In 2005 the Indigenous People’s Council on Biocolonialism (IPCB) is a human rights group that seeks to protect Indigenous people from what it sees as the negative effects of biotechnology. The IPCB condemned the genographic as exploitative, and encouraged indigenous people to boycott project partner IBM as well as National Geographic itself. Maurice Foxx, Chairman of the Massachusetts Board of Indian Affairs said in 2006 “What scientists are trying to prove is that we’re the same as the pilgirms, except that we came over several thousand years before, why should give them that openly” (DNA Gathers Hit a Snag: Tribes Don’t Trust Them) “New York Times” There were also fears that the project may be similar to the Human Genome Project. Sponsored by the United States government, the Human Genome Project has also come under heavy criticism from indigenous groups. One of the criticisms is that the revelation of the genetic predisposition of certain groups to certain ailments could lead to discrimination from health insurance companies.
The Secret Message of a Super PAC While watching the tremendous amounts of political advertisements flow out of a family’s television every day, it is quite amazing to see how many accusations and career ending facts that many of our leading politicians are faced with. Advertisements like those from the super Political Action Committees (PAC) known as Restore Our Future. Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry are two of the politicians that are being scrutinized by the super PAC’s advertisement titled, Too Much, December 21 2011. The main argument that the ad makes is that Gingrich and Perry both are too liberal on immigration and have too much baggage on ethics, and the intended conservative audience would agree that the politicians are not fit for
Calling it Quits Divorce plays a big role in modern day America, and unfortunately divorce rates have continued to increase over the past decade. Divorce is often perceived as a negative topic for obvious reasons such as causing damage to the family, traumatizing the children in the family and other psychological effects it has on people involved. However, both of the two articles I researched discuss divorce and its negative psychological effects; one of the articles differs in that it focuses on the ecological aspects of divorce instead. Jacob Duchaine wrote “An Argument Against Divorce” making claims against divorce and its negativity using biblical references and the stance that “No one takes anything seriously anymore, even marriage”(1).
Raga Pribadi Mr. Randolph Academic English 11 2 March 2011 Denying the Undeniable How much longer will it take for one nation to tolerate those who accept the unacceptable and hide the immoral acts they committed? Subsequent years of mistakes hidden and made by role models, heroes, and leaders reveal that their tolerance of their baneful deeds led to destruction. Consequences caused by their carelessness not only impacts themselves, but also the people who surround them. Observing their campaigns and terms, proof of wreckage and downfall resides within political leaders such as: Bill Clinton, Rod Blagojevich, and Lewis Libby proved why the passive acceptance of their own injustices may be the greatest evil of all. All the while during
There were many differences between the two and each difference created more and more tension until they reached the breaking point of war. An example of one would be the way that their economies’ were set up. The North’s economy was industrial centered while the South’s almost exclusively revolved on agriculture. The way that their economies’ were affected the way that their political parties acted. So the North’s industrial political party (Republicans) would support laws like high tariffs on cotton while on the other hand the South’s agricultural political party (democrats) would vote against.
