Currently our nation is having a hard time choosing whom to elect for our next President. There are certain issues, in my opinion, that point me towards Presidential Candidate Al Gore. Al Gore would make a promising President because of his background in politics, and I prefer his standing on education and abortion to the other possible contenders. He grew up with strong family values and has been involved in politics his entire life. Because Gore understands that our nation has problems with education and abortion, he developed many new programs to help each issue. Gore is a devoted man whom has high goals for the United States of America. In my opinion Al Gore is the ideal president for this nation, and I believe he can make things …show more content…
American has been dealing with abortion since 1821 when the first abortion law was passed (Rein 6). This has been an on going argument for a long time, and many important Supreme Court cases have changed the laws and ideas regarding the abortion issue. Abortion is a touching issue that each candidate must address in a certain way, and Gore knows how to handle this touching debate. Al Gore understands that abortion is a difficult issue and approaches it in a sensitive way. Gore understands that a woman has a right to choose when and where a baby is going to be born. In fact, in January 2000 Gore stated that, “abortion is a question for women, not for [the] government or [the] president”(Issues 1). Gore understands a woman has the “right to choice, regardless of economic circumstances”(Issues 1). Gore is not for abortion or against it; all he wants is for the person to be able to make the right decision for their particular life. He wants to form clinics to help women who have had abortions cope with the pain, if it is present, and teach them how to cope with their choices. Gore expressed that he “would support RU-486, if [it] was proven safe”(Issues 1). For those of you who do not know what RU-486 is, allow me to explain. RU-486 is a pill women can take the morning after having unprotected sex to eliminate the possibility of an unwanted pregnancy. This pill kills the fertilized egg so it can no longer grow into a fetus (Abortion 3). It is not legal for everyone in America yet, but it will soon be if proven safe. Gore wants to make sure that “abortions are safe, legal, and rare”(Issues 1). He believes that there should be “more family planning” instead of making an appointment to receive an abortion. Gore is a caring man who understands the tough choices Americans must make on a daily basis. He tries to connect to people in any way possible, and I feel he would make a caring leader who
I have always admired Al Gore, and after watching this film, I am disappointed even more now, that he never became a president. He is indeed very smart and very talented person, who truly desires to change things not only in the United States but around the world. Especially, after watching his film about global warming, he made me feel like he does really care about the world and people. He said: “what we take for granted might not be here for our children,” to me, perhaps, this is the most moral idea that came across the entire film. Not only his words, but his actions prove his true diligence about our present and future, and also about future generations. He was able to deliver an important message to me, which ought to alert me and
Al Gore will be able to handle the presidency. I will discuss Al Gore’s brief history
John Forbes Kerry is the candidate I would chose in the up in coming election. Some of the issues that would decide my vote are environment, the economy, homeland security, social issues, and Iraq. I would also vote for John Kerry because he has done good things for Massachusetts and I know he will do good things for this country. My last reason for voting for John Kerry is because he will bring our troops home safely. On November 2, 2004 I would vote for John Kerry.
I think Mike Pence as our vice president is a good choice. He has governed Indiana pretty well. He is dedicated to making Indiana a better place. Pence takes leadership and does what he thinks is best for our state. I think these two will work well together for many reasons.

If I had to vote for any of the presidents that we researched, I would probably vote for Ronald Reagan. I felt as if he was the best president that my group researched. I really liked all of his policies, and I thought they made a great impact on America. Ronald Reagan was a Republican, which meant that he favored having a free market, limit government regulation of industry, and allowing individuals to help the needy. Republicans are also against same-sex marriage and in the case of abortion, they are pro-life.
In his speech, The Time to Act Is Now, Al Gore uses several rhetorical devices and appeals to communicate his subject and persuade his audience. Gore is able to efficiently convey his concern about global warming by using statistics and facts, stating expert opinions, considering his audience, and using strong appeals to pathos.
Al Gore is a very well know man across the world in many developed countries. His work on climate change and his political career is what got him to where he is now. He was born in Washington, D.C. on March, 31 1948. He attended Harvard University, where he got his degree in government with high honors. He was also in Vanderbilt Law School many years later, after his time being a military journalist. He dropped out of this school to become a politician serving in the house for four terms and many years in the senate. This all leads up to him running for president in 1988 and losing the primary. In 1992 Bill Clinton chose him as his Vice president for his election as president, they won their two terms and Gore ran in the 2000 election and
As of today, the presidential candidates have expressed many views to gain the citizens support. Bernie Sanders is one of those candidates. At seventy five years of age, he is running to become the next democratic president for 2016. He believes strongly of equality for all genders, ethnicities, and religions. He wants tuition for public colleges to be free along with student loans to have a lighter amount of interest rate. Bernie Sanders’s solution to the issue of poverty and wage inequality is raising the minimum wage and creating jobs for all the working class,
My candidate will issue a law saying how many immigrants can enter the U.S per year, eliminate the future threats by telling other countries to knock it off before they start a war, and add my security checks to help prevent terrorists from entering the state. The candidate will interact with congress in a strong, determined, but respectful manner to get the job done. These stances make my candidate a good choice because he respects citizen safety and plans to make the laws better, and protect the nation. Opposition in this area will be respected as an opinion but not tolerated for long, if needed my candidate will provide the opposition with facts to help reassure its safe.
Clinton as a teacher and most importantly as a role model. There is a story behind how Mr. Clinton earned my respect, which had nothing to do with his cute looks, but rather his character.From what I've seen, he is a hardworking, dedicated, and caring individual. Most of all, he maintains his personality as an ordinary person just like you and me. His work as a president for the past years speaks for it self. From what I've observed, Mr.
The United States of America was born on diversity and different beliefs. This is what many believe to be great about this country. Considering such a mixture of cultures, the United States needs a strong leader to bring the nation together. Since the time of our Founding Fathers, the political views of the nation has mended the course of history. In conjunction with an imagination and great aspects, our Founding Fathers created three political parties; the Democratic party the Republican party and the Liberal party. In times of great peril, the nation has turned to its leaders for guidance and direction. At the helm of these political parties, there has been a convincing and resilient candidate. Considering all aspects, the nation had an extremely
The president elect must be able to deal with problems this country inherited under President Bush. There are still many issues in the United States that President Bush hasn?t given any attention to. The new president must be able to show the judgment to lead in times of crisis. He should be able to talk, negotiate and compromise whenever a conflict arises.
The nation is split between these two and many people are describing it as a ‘pick your poison’ which is not a very comforting phrase while choosing the next leader of the nation. Looking at different polls and trends, I had a very difficult time predicting the outcome. In the end, I predict and hope that the next president of our nation to be Hillary. With her background involved in politics and government she would not need such a long period to adjust into a power holding position. Her values and her positions on foreign affairs would also benefit America more than the values carried by
