When the ball dropped and the calendar year change to 2017, the United States had a rational, sane, even-tempered president in the White House. The newly elected President Trump has been at the least, irresponsible with his words. In the illustration, President Donald Trump reaches out to help a United States Worker out of an Obama shelter with the caption, "Come on out. It's safe again". The implication is that the workers in the United States felt as if they needed protection under the Obama administration and now Trump is here to "save the day". Perusing deeper into the photo, take notice of the worker’s apprehension to accept the hand of the overzealous newly elected President Trump. If workers felt the need to hide in an Obama shelter, Trump is not the ideal president to introduce security and safety back to the American citizen. …show more content…
In fact, he received 12th place on C-Spans list of best presidents and had a sixty percent approval rating at the end of his presidency (CNN, 2017). He showed much grace as the Republican party tried to destroy his presidency. Instead of retaliating, Obama continued to campaign for the country, eventually gaining some support of Republicans. By establishing policies to protect rights of consumers, small business, minorities, disabled individuals, increase the minimum wage of federal contractors, protect the rights of the lesbian, gay bisexual and transsexual (LGBT) community, Obama proved that he was the president for all Americans not just the select privileged
In 2012, President Obama introduced the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program for young people who had been residing in the United States at least five years prior to the bill’s passing. DACA was the most significant provision from the Obama administration that aimed to help undocumented youth be integrated in the American society. It protected them from deportation and allowed them to obtain a state identification, work permit, and Social Security number. The immigrant communities celebrated this bill as it had been a long time since there was a significant change in the country’s immigration policy. However, the current administration and government pose a serious threat to the beneficiaries of the DACA program as well as
He wants safe and secure life for all people living on this great nation. Obama not only uses the strategy of emotional stories of children to persuade his audience, he uses real mass shooting events to capture the audience emotions, as invites all the country to step with him and face this problem that’s threaten our safety. During the speech his reveling many sorrow events to encourage us to take this big move with him. Obama connects to the audience and expresses to them that he is the one that is going to make proper changes to this great
When president Barack Obama first walked on the biggest stage in America eight years ago a lot of Americans did not trust his words of wisdom to carry, we the people to a better United States. On January 10, 2017 President Barack Obama walked back on that same big stage now known and loved by so many to give his last and final speech, his Farewell speech. All of the non believers were certainly awoken to the actions that were taken by president Barack Obama to achieve most of what he truly dedicated his life and career to. Obama worked hard to gain the love, respect and dedication by so many loyal americans today. It definitely was not an easy task to achieve, many trials and many errors. In this analysis I will state weather or not Obama’s
Despite recent failures on a variety of political aspects, Obama has managed to maintain his “cool.” That would be much harder if it weren’t for occasionally guest starring on shows such as Ellen; he definitely has a niche for keeping up with the talk-shows and media. Once introduced, he isn’t afraid to show off his dance skills, but then quickly get to business. As a marvelous orator, complicated topics and issues can be dissolved for the common folk, thus, providing a trivial insight into his moral fiber. On top of it all, he has ten years experience in public office. The...
President Obama was no different. Five weeks after the election, President Obama met with his economic and political advisors that presented him with their reports of the rapidly deteriorating economic conditions and their plan to hinder the economy from collapsing. President Obama delegated the legislative work to party members and committees because, as a former legislator, he believed that giving Congress discretion in writing the bill would contribute to its enactment (Wayne, 2013). “In general, crises, when they first occur, enhance opportunities for presidential leadership” Stephen J. Wayne stated in Rivals of Power: Presidential-Congressional Relations. “Members of Congress, much like the general public, look to the president and rally behind him” (Wayne, 2013). At first, president Obama hit the ground running after he won the election, and immediately started to figure out with his advisors on how to get the United States back on its feet again. And Congress members look up to the president just as much as American citizens do when the United States faces a crisis. Which in turn can boost the president’s and Congress’ relationship to American citizens. However, Obama’s operating style spawned criticism from both the Democrats and Republicans. The Democrats companied that he did not give much support for their
When he states "’Please, Mr. President, don 't frighten us by telling us the facts.’ Frankly and definitely there is danger ahead...But we well know that we cannot escape danger...by crawling into bed and pulling the covers over our heads”, Roosevelt is cautioning that if the American citizens simply ignore the facts, nothing will change, and they will not be able to escape the danger. The danger in this situation being the Nazi invasions throughout Europe; Roosevelt knows that inaction will not fix the situation, but simply stall the inevitable. However, Roosevelt also understands that the American citizens can fix the situation simply by helping out the European countries. At the same time, many American workers weren’t willing to work and help the Europeans. They felt they were being deprived of certain rights that managers and engineers were afforded and went on strike or a lockout as a result of this. They were fearful of being laid off and not having any sort of job security. To respond to this, Roosevelt states “The worker possesses the same human dignity and is entitled to the same security of position as the engineer or the manager or the owner. For the workers provide the human power that turns out the destroyers, and the planes, and the tanks.” In an By appealing to pathos throughout his speech, Roosevelt lessens the fears of his
Donald Trump is a highly successful business titan, real estate mogul, reality television personality, and now a 2016 presidential candidate. Since announcing his candidacy this past June, he has been very loquacious on his views pertaining to foreign policy. He takes a very realist approach when addressing these issues. His views are very much in line with the belief that the international political arena is not dominated by altruistic ideologies, but rather nation-states that are self-interested. His foreign policy platform centers on using hard power to achieve America’s goals in the Middle East and to eradicate illegal immigration.
Many people have come to America for a better life and to get away from all the troubles of their homeland. These immigrants, like those throughout U.S. history, are generally hard workers and make important contributions to the economy through their productive labor and purchasing power. America is considered a melting pot of many diffrent ethinic group. Immigrants should be able to enter America with little if any resistance from any border patrol. Immigrants in america take the low paying, hard labor jobs that , unfortunately, some americans don't want.
Abraham Lincoln as America’s greatest president was brought up in the history’s Taking Sides: Clashing Views on Controversial Issues in America’s History textbook, where two authors argued whether he was the greatest president or not the greatest president in American History. One author agrees that he was the greatest because he succeeded in preserving the Union and Freeing the Slaves and another one argues that he was not the greatest president because he marked a serious departure from the republican goals of the Founding Fathers. There have been many presidents in the united states that have been great presidents and rulers. Since American has won its Independence from Great Britain there have been presidents ruling the continent. From the very first president, George Washington to the present president Barack Obama there have been numerous presidents
Three weeks ago, Trump’s title elevated from GOP candidate to president-elect. Following this revelation, protests erupted and injured countless civilians and law enforcers. Even high schoolers, trapped in the wrong place at the wrong time, have been tear gassed and endangered through the protests. Yet, these protests determine nothing: on January 20th, Donald Trump will still become president. While hatred continues to simmer below the surface, protesters slowly realize that their street performances cannot ensure a better future, only a violent present. As they become discredited about the state of their country, the democrat’s anger morphs into anxiety. With a president-elect, who, in the past three weeks, has altered his platform and changed
After his former preacher, Jeremiah Wright, gave such exigence for this discussion by making claims that the U.S. government treated black people harshly, Obama was pretty much forced to act. And with great credence and rhetoric, he did. The soon to be president, and also the first African American man to be president, first sets grounds for his speech by inserting himself into the context of the racial history of America, creating the modern-day setting of a war that is centuries in age. He then appealed to pathos by bringing light to his audience with examples of racial corruption and inequality to highlight the huge need for unity and change. And finally, he capitalized on these sentiments by appealing to ethos to advocate methods of change. With the great success of this historic and rhetorical speech, Obama assumed a new podium in November of that same exact year, but this time, to accept his election as the President of the United
Across the world, ordinary people find heroes that they aspire to imitate. Comic books portray heroes as super strong men in spandex suits, and although a three-year-old child might aspire to be superman, more mature audiences hopefully find more realistic figures to idolize. Take Barack Obama, the President of the United States; he worked his entire life to attain the highest position in our government, President. Obama was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth but to a single mother in Hawaii. Through hard work and motivation, he went to college and received an education at Columbia University. He later obtained a law degree from Harvard University and began working with the Democratic Party. In 1996 he was elected to the Illinois Senate and acquired a seat in the United State’s Senate in 2004. After only 5 years of experience in the Senate, he was elected the 44th president. Obama’s exponential growth in importance and power could only have been achieved by an exemplary man. His determination, intelligence, hard work, and professionalism all made his success attainable, and he should be admired for these traits. Every country has a national hero and Barack Obama is the United State’s.
On October 1, 2013 Obama had signed a law passing the Obama Care to help people with healthcare, but in fact forced the government to shut down and eliminate food share to help pay for the Obama care. Due to the fact that many people rely on the government’s food share to help them survive, thousands of people were declined from Obama care and therefore had no healthcare and no food to help them survive. The Government shutdown is the beginning of Homeland security’s “ENDGAME” plan of taking away citizens’ rights and starting the martial law to have the military take over and place citizens into FEMA centers.
As both "conservatism" and "liberalism" have had various meanings sooner or later and transversely countries, the word liberal conservatism has been used in relatively different sanity. In political science, the word is used to pass on to ideologies that merge the support of capitalism, for instance value for contracts, protection of private property and free market require reference to validate with the principle in natural discrimination, the significance of religion, and the worth of traditional integrity need reference to validate in the course of a construction of inadequate, legitimate, representative government (Abdou & Zaazou 2013). It contrasts with traditional liberalism and particularly aristocratic conservatism, rejecting the belief of correspondence as a little in discordance with human nature, instead emphasizing the thought of natural inequality (Crozier. 2012).As the conservative thought in democratic countries hold typical liberal institutions such as the rule of law, private property, market economy, and constitutional representative government, the liberal factor of liberal conservatism
To sum up, Obama has always been and will always be a great example of how to succeed in spite of difficulties or obstacles. Such a strong personality is worth to be admired. Obama has left me with positive feelings about the
