The President. The first person we think of when we hear “The most powerful person in the United States”. But you will be surprised to hear that the president may not have as much power as you think. This is because the president’s power is limited. Though this does not mean they do not have a lot of abilities. The P.O.T.U.S, or the President Of The United States has both formal and informal powers. Some forman powers, or powers listed in the Constitution, are that they are Commander in Chief, Chief Diplomat, can appoint judges to the supreme court, make treaties, and many more. These powers have to come with a lot of responsibility. That is exactly why I am voting for Hillary Clinton. One reason is because she is responsible and will use the many powers of the P.O.T.U.S wisely. Hillary Clinton was born on October 26, 1947 in Chicago, Illinois. She is married to former president Bill Clinton and has one daughter named Chelsea. Throughout Mrs. Clinton’s life, she has been Secretary of State, the First Lady of the United States, and Senator of New York. On November 8, I will be casting my vote for Mrs. Hillary Clinton.
One reason I am voting for Hillary Clinton is because we both agree on gun control. Clinton believes we should ban assault weapons, have more strict background checks on people buying firearms, and try to stop illegal gun

Mrs. Clinton supports women’s equal rights, equality for LGBTQ, and to legalize gay/lesbian marriage. Hillary said during International Human Rights Day in 2011, "“Being LGBT does not make you less human. And that is why gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights”. 2My beliefs are the same as Clinton, equality and equal rights for everyone. This topic is important to me because I want my sisters and Mom to have the same rights as me and feel equal in this world. Lastly, Hillary Clinton ideas and stand in equal rights leads me to vote for
Of the most powerful people in the world, the President of the United States of America hits the top of the list. Even though the policy agendas that presidents set as they take office often go unfulfilled, the office of President is still one of the most envied spots to have. But why could this be? It is because the United States is the most powerful nation in the world and with the President as the leader, he is said to have the most power in the world ("Top Ten Most Powerful Countries in the World"). With power comes responsibility and with this position he must govern a country while abiding by the rules.
Two strong organizations in the U.S. have opposing views on gun control; each of which have great politicians. The National Rifle Association (NRA) is against gun control, as The Brady Center is fighting for gun control. Sarah Palin, former government of Alaska, is an NRA advocate that believes that gun control is taking the right of the citizens in which the 2nd amendment has given them. The 2nd amendment states, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a Free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed” (Constitution). Palin believes that it is unconstitutional for gun control laws, and these laws will take away the citizens privilege of hunting and self-defense. Palin stated, “I support our Constitutional right to bear arms and am a proponent of gun safety programs for Alaska's youth," adding "I have always strongly supported the personal use of fish and game by Alaskans. I grew up hunting and fishing in Alaska, and I am proud ...
However, his position of being the ‘most powerful man in the world’ is proved to be true when subject mater of foreign policies are dealt with rather than domestics. In the USA, the President is the person who holds office of the head of state for the United States government. Although Article II of the American Constitution sets out the powers of the President, it is rather generalised and modest. None of the powers of the President are entirely set out in the constitution, but are bounded by checks and balances. For example, the President has the power to nominate members of the executive and candidates for the Supreme Court; on the other hand this requires the majority of support in the Senate.
She uses strong words to evolve her speech. “We must respect the choices that each woman makes for herself”,” Every women deserves”. When she uses these words(respect and deserves) the message is clear. Clinton is fighting for women rights, she takes this topic in a serious way. It is a commitment she has and wants everyone to listen.
The first lady appears to be trustworthy, in that she holds true to her contract of marriage although her husband has made and abomination of the sacred agreement. The marriage now, however, may actually be more political, but Mrs. Clinton makes it seem that she is not giving up on the marriage, a strong virtue especially in today's society. Mrs. Clinton is also a great liberal and advocates for many minority groups such as homosexuals. This appearance, whether it be true or false, appeals to the greater number of her constituents who are increasingly liberal.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is a well-recognized woman in the United States. Her great contribution as Secretary of State impacted people’s lives. One of many remarkable speeches Clinton gave was the “The Women Rights Speech” on the 4th World Conference on Women Plenary Session, where she used strong words and emotions to appeal the audience. Even though the speech talked about women rights, she wanted everyone including men and children to listen and take action. Her use of ethos, logos and pathos throughout the speech helped people understand women live in a world where they suffer discrimination, and she proposes solutions to solve the issue.
There are a lot of people currently in the public eye, people who have a great deal to do with our country and the way that it has been managed or not managed. It all depends on what you believe from the information that we are given. One face that has been around for many years, but is not always talked about in the media is Hilary Clinton. Hillary is one face in our country that is both well-known politically and also publicly. Normally when writing a paper, particularly one that is a biography, the first inclination is to write about someone who is directly involved with current events. Hillary Clinton, while not a prominent part of our current governmental events, has been very active in past events and remains someone who comes up continuously due to her help in other affairs. It is probably safe to say that her presence, while not always completely visible, will always be a prominent part in our government and its workings.

Some people believe her values are “a result of having lived through the depression” (Harris 673). She has seen the worst and hopes to make things better for her people. As a child, Clinton was “earning merit badges in girl scouts and starring in the girls softball league” (Harris 674). She has always believed women were smart and strong. Earning badges and playing sports might not seem like much, but it taught a young Clinton that women can do anything they set their mind to. Clinton went off to college and met her husband Bill Clinton there. As the couple got older, Bill decided he wanted to run for president. Hillary “went to Indiana to coordinate the campaign” (Harris 678) for Bill. From the start to the end of Bill’s presidency, Hillary was “extremely active in government affairs” (Hurley 204). She “[emphasized] the need for a global feminist agenda” (Hurley 204-205). Even though Bill was the president, Hillary applied herself as if she were the president. She encouraged equality for genders. Her speech “Women’s Rights Are Human Rights” was given right in the middle of Bill’s presidency. She used her economic power to create awareness of the gender inequality in the
That statement alone gained thousands of Hispanic voters. another good comment that Hillary Clinton has made is If a country doesn't recognize minority rights and human rights, including women's rights, you will not have the kind of stability and prosperity that is possible”. Hillary has proposed equal rights several times before and with this statement she reinforces her position with equal rights. Both Trump and Hillary have different views on economy.
Beyoncé once famously exclaimed in her 2006 triple platinum song “Irreplaceable”, “To the left, to the left, everything you own in the box to the left”. Despite astonishingly high rates of voter loyalty, the Democratic Party has been unable to solve many of the issues faced by the African-American Community. Issues such as wealth inequality and mass incarceration have gone largely unaddressed. Much to the dismay of the American pop culture mogul and Democratic strategists alike, the African-American Community should de-align from the Democratic Party and become swing voters. By becoming less attached to one party, the issues facing the African American Community could help reshape policy platforms as Republicans see the community’s vote as more attainable, and Democrats lose the ability to pay lip service to issues without delivering pay-dirt.
I choose to research Hillary Clinton because I admire the drive and passion she puts into her work. She is a unique global leader whose activism has promoted social change around the world. Warren Bennis, author of On Becoming a Leader author says that, “…true leaders are not born, but made, and they are usually self-made (Bennis, p. 35, 2009).” Hillary is a prominent example of a self-made leader. She invented herself as a public figure through her dedication to human rights and equality. Over the last three decades she has gained the respect and admiration of people around the world. She has spent a career working towards improving people's lives.
About eight decades ago, the United States Constitution granted American women the right to vote. During the same era, only men ran for office and decided what is best for American citizens. Many females in the world today are becoming politicians. Today, many women will consider running for local offices in their communities. The “Women Rights” article states “women were excluded from the electoral process for more than 140 years”. The “Women Rights” article also states that women did not have the opportunity to attend college. Women in their communities are considering running for president, commissioner, secretary, etc. American citizens will decide who should hold office. The three reasons why I believe women should consider politics are
I should receive a passing grade in this class because I can write now. Not just an exaggeration, but after another semester of English I finally feel confident that can write. Three of the reasons behind my confidence is I learned, I experienced and best of all I repeated. These three values helped prepare me for what is in store in English 1302 and here is why.
At the young age of 10, a young Dutch girl with insanely black, curly, hair sailed the sea on a big ship from Holland to the United States. Kissing the fields of tulips and windmills goodbye, she said hello to the land of the free. Wearing her wool skirt and a light cotton top, she endured the long trek on the ship with her large family of seven. One can assume the trip came with a great deal of memories. Those memories like seasickness, insomnia, but most importantly the jittery feeling that is expected to come about when waiting to arrive at an unfamiliar place.
