Hancock quotes an ESPN interview with Patterson saying, “We had a vision nine years ago of reaching a BCS bowl and going to a national championship. A lot of people laughed and shook their heads and said, 'Well, that's nice.' We're now crossing that threshold” (Hancock “Should College”). Also, Hancock argues that college football already has a single-elimination post-season playoff: the regular season. The argument Hancock makes is that the regular season is so important; losing teams are eliminated from a chance at the championship while winning teams have that chance.
In his 2000 bid for the presidency Ralph Nader campaigned against the corporate powers dominance in the political landscape as well as the need for change in the manner of how presidential races are held. He also wanted universal healthcare, the legalization of hemp, and free universal education - meaning college would be free for every American citizen. Nader ran on a similar platform in 2004 and 2008. Opposition to the War in Iraq was one of the biggest issues in the 2004 campaign and Nader had always been at the forefront of this opposition. Nader has made it quite clear to his fellow citizens that he will always do his utmost to ensure that the rights of consumers are upheld and defended.

John father thought that Joe was going to be the first Kennedy to run for office, but after his death the family’s political standards passed to John. Those standards ended John’s dreams of pursuing an academic or journalistic career. John succeeded through many things but if I was him I couldn’t give up my dream for someone else dreams. I would’ve done the right thing to do and keep living my life the way I wanted to live it. John was a good person with a good
People who were under him as president must have enjoyed having a loyal educated president who knew what he was doing. With his high knowledge in political philosophy, he set an example for his fellow citizens over the course of nearly half a century. He summed up the lessons he'd learned in his "Farewell Address to the People of the United States," with its central theme of union based on the primacy of the Constitution. He spoke out his theme with warnings to steer clear of sectional and political divisions. Washington also advised on foreign relations; on the role of religion, morality and education in public life; and on the need to protect public credit and stabilize commercial and manufacturing interests.
What made a person want to live the Presidency life? Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson knew they had what it take to do the job and get things done. Roosevelt was born October 27, 1858 in New York City. He attended Harvard College and finished in 1880. Teddy was the nickname they gave him as a child when he was growing up.
Amber Wheeler 11/15/12 I chose Shepard Fairy’s “Hope” poster from the 2008 presidential campaign because I am a proud supporter of our second term President, Mr. Barak Obama. I see the vision he has, and I appreciate the message he spreads throughout the United States; that everybody matters. I was over joyed when Obama was re- elected, that is what gave me the inspiration to research a painting of him by Shepard Fairy. The message of “Hope” that Fairy captures in this painting comes across so real and pure because you can see the pain and struggle of his journey to presidency through his eyes. Frank “Shepard” Fairy was born and raised in Charleston, SC.
A custom friendship was key to him. His previous work in the government only made his job easier. In the end John F. Kennedy wanted to prepare a new generation of Americans and secure a better life, government, and nation for everyone to live in and interact with. John F. Kennedy met many of his goals he had visions of. Those that he didn’t meet are still in our hands today.
Dr. King not only did he make this better but he also influenced people to speak up for themselves no matter what sex, race, or religion there is no wrong in saying what you think is wright. Hatred amongst other people just because they look different or they act different is not morally correct people should live with accept and maybe even embrace the different cultures. Even though Dr. King is dead his words and characters live on into the modern world. Today Dr. King’s decisions and speeches have affected the world of today in many ways. One of the greatest achievements was our new president Barak Obama, but his smaller achievements count too, such as the diversities in school, neighborhoods, and public areas.
There isn’t nothing positive being done with the males in my family. They only thing that we all could do well was play sports but talent unused is talent wasted. I believe that I might not be as bad as them but if I continue in the direction I was going in I would end up in the same situations. I had to start my transformation. This is what motivated me to want to change myself and become a better person before it was too late.
