Both candidates waned the best for their people and nation. However, while Obama believed in providing an affordable healthcare plan, additional government programming and ensuring the preservation of American’s dignity; Romney believed that the focus should be on increasing national defense, limiting the federal government 's role in the lives of Americans and promoting America’s greatness. In the end, both candidates recognize the importance of a good education and that America was the best nation in the world and the place where greatness is

Nursing defined as: “Nursing encompasses autonomous and collaborative care of individuals of all ages, families, groups and communities, sick or well and in all settings. It includes the promotion of health, the prevention of illness, and the care of ill, disabled and dying people” (WHO, 2005).
Michele Bachmann is a presidential candidate and a Minnesota congresswoman. She is known for her success as a small business owner, a U.S. tax attorney, federal lawmaker, a wife, and mother. She has made her appearance known to the public due to her outspoken negativity towards the President of the United States, and her famous quote "Barack Obama is a one term President". Although the election is far away, Bachmann has managed to cause individuals to have a "change of heart" towards her vote, due to her controversial statements. Many have realized that Bachmann voices without actual facts; therefore, causing individuals’ to lack confidence in her campaign and see her as another Sarah Palin. Anyone who recalls Sarah Palin’s Death in March 2008 can tell you that she based some of her overall opinions on important topics off fabrications to boost her campaign (Makin). Michele Bachmann is unfit for the position she seeks for the President of the United States.
When campaigning Obama presented himself as a “transformational president” (1), but what does that mean exactly. He wanted to be the type of president that would introduce a new kind of politics. When Obama was campaigning for his first term and he said he wanted to change Washington I think that he meant he want to change Washington in every way. He wanted Washington to think more for the people that they represent rather than what is best for them and their check books. For years politicians have always seemed to care about the upper class people. Even though the United states is forty-five percent working class.(2) I think this because according to the New York Times Obama wanted to tax the upper class citizens instead of the working class. So anyone that makes over $250,000 would be paying more taxes (4). So instead of making the working class pay more taxes he wanted the three percent of American to pay more taxes (3). This makes sense because the people who make over that amount have more disposable income to begin with. I also think that when Obama was saying he wanted to change Washington he was also talking about how things in Washington haven’t been updated. We have been using the same constitution that was written in 1787. Since the...
“She stands up for what’s right, and she doesn’t let anyone tell her to sit down. […] She’s fought oil companies and party bosses and do-nothing bureaucrats, and anyone who put their interests before the interests of the people she swore an oath to serve…My friends and fellow Americans, I am very pleased and very privileged to introduce to you the next vice president of the United States – Governor Sarah Palin of the great state of Alaska!” (Palin 226) This quote, taken directly from John McCain’s vice presidential announcement speech discusses only a few of the reasons why Sarah Palin was selected as the Republican nominee for Vice President in the 2008 Presidential election. While history did not turn out quite like McCain’s speech enthusiastically predicts, the principles and actions exemplified by Palin are both admirable and are worthy of political success. However, in today’s society, Sarah Palin is portrayed as unintelligent, unaccomplished and essentially unsuccessful. As defined by Merriam-Webster Dictionary, success is a favored or desired outcome; that being said, this writer questions how society has the basis to deem someone unsuccessful merely on the result of a failed political election. After reading Sarah Palin’s autobiography, Going Rogue, this writer has arrived at the conclusion that Sarah Palin’ political career should be considered successful, regardless of the result of the 2008 Presidential election. Sarah Palin is a successful politician because she remained true to her values and principles despite continuous attacks on her character and morals. The following essay will examine Sarah Palin’s life and political career, with an emphasis on her successes, achievements and accomplishments.
Contrast of presidential *campaign positions of McCain and Obama. From year to year, presidential elections face many controversial problems that involve candidates’ personality and ideas, and they have a great influence on voters’ decisions. Many journalists and politicians express their feelings about upcoming presidential elections in provocative articles, revealing accomplishments of one and limitations of another, but the only right way to find out who our candidates are, and what are their real intentions, is to let them turn their ideas into life. Just remember the words of President George Bush during the 2000 campaign about building a nation. His position was very clear and stated that it is none of the government’s business, and what do we see now? The United States is currently involved in nation building in Iraq in a scale unseen since World War ll. It’s important to know what our politicians think about present situation in the country. Let’s discuss our candidates’ points of view to the major challenges facing America today to choose one who responds to present needs of American people. Another important question that needs to be discussed is economics, especially taxation policy. Senator Obama does not say many about taxation. His idea is to “cut income taxes by $1,000 for working families to offset the payroll tax they pay”, and to create “Making Work Pay” tax credit, where $500 per person and $1000 per working family are supposed to cover income tax expenses for 10 million people (Obama, Barack Obama|Change We Can Believe In|Economy, 2008). Obama is also going to simplify tax fillings, by providing ready forms with information collected from banks and employers. In contrast to Obama, John McCain has a width rang...
Though Jade fought hard in her campaign, she was no match for Celia Israel, a well-known local political figure who has served on numerous executive boards, and has been endorsed by multiple credited institutions such as The Austin Chronicle. Her long time devotion to supporting higher education and expanding health care has shown in her credentials and résumé of work. Jade lacked a political background and her experience on these issues was not as apparent as Celia’s. The ideal politician who lives for politics should be a prominent leader.
She organized a community meeting at her church, in which New Jersey Family Policy Council President Len Deo outlined steps that could be taken to address the issue. Surprising things began to happen. Entirely unsought, she had opportunities to speak to a reporter, and to then gubernatorial candidate Jim McGreevey. Since then, she's taken every opportunity to speak out. She has been inte...
At my work placement, I found out that I was related to Tina Durocher through my grandma. My grandma and uncles name was written in one of her documents of who had left the reserve long ago. I was full of enjoyment that I had to tell my mom right away. During lunch hour I called my mom and told her on what I found out. She was speechless and was very happy on what I told her. Every morning I would file important documents for the clients that live on reserve and to make new files for new clients. Tina had motioned to take things slow and work at my own pace. When I was done she gave me papers of new expectant mothers, people that past and that had gotten married I had to register them through INAC. I learned that if either parent isn’t a registered
In a state known for its apples, and nicknamed the “Evergreen State” looms a bitter battle between Democrat Incumbent Senator Patty Murray and Representative Linda Smith (Republican) for the only U.S. Senate seat open in the state of Washington. Washington has been historically Democratic for years. But changes in the state’s economy and a low amount of challengers have led to political instability in the Evergreen State. In recent times, while the state has voted Democratic in the last three presidential elections, Washington voted Republican for president in the previous elections in the 1970’s and 1980’s. A Democrat has held the governor’s mansion since 1984. Control in the Senate, House, and state legislature is split. In 1994, Washington’s House delegation shifted more than any other state’s, with six of nine seats moving from Democrats to Republican. Conservative Republicans maintained their dominance in these same races in 1996. Democratic Sen. Patty Murray is one of three women elected in 1992 (“The Year of the Woman”) who is seeking re-election this year. Murray ran her campaign in 1992 with the slogan “Mom in tennis shoes.” Born on October 11th, 1950, Sen. Murray began her bout in politics as an educator running for the Shoreline School Board. She won the position and was on the school board from 1983-1989. Sen. Murray ran and won the Washington State Senate seat from 1989-1993.
