The Democrats have won the majority vote in five of the six latest presidential decisions. It might be that Republican triumphs in administrative and gubernatorial decisions do not extend to presidential races for fundamental reasons. For instance, the geographic dissemination of Republican voters helps their gathering win authoritative seats yet does not assist them to win the White House. One underlying reason for the Democrats ' White House winning streak is that demographic patterns support them. Arguably the Asians and Hispanics, two fast-growing voting blocs have inclined progressively left. Likewise, youthful white voters are moving left, as well, as Christianity debilitates among them. Another reason for the Democrats and Hillary’s potential to clinch the presidency is that voters, even ones who are widely appealing ideologically, believe Republicans ' needs are skewed toward rich individuals and corporations (Ponnuru, 2015). These are entwined hypotheses since the Republicans biased image costs the party the African American vote, Hispanics, and youngsters leading to its poor performance at the national level.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign strategy revolves around using the Democratic Party’s strength on demographics and social issues to overcome her weaknesses as a candidate (Ponnuru, 2015). For example, when formally launching her campaign on Roosevelt Island in June, her discourse did not contain any critical personal articulations and achievements. Rather it praised the components of the Democratic coalition and championed a progression of liberal strategies gathered through popular opinion polling. In this regard, Clinton 's campaign platform incorporates an expansion in the lowest pay permitted by law, extended kid ca...

Rick Santorum’s departure heralded the beginning of the general election. Mitt Romney, with the backing of the Republican establishment, and the growing support of the base, can now devote his resources for a one on one showdown against President Barack Obama. Recent polls indicate that he is behind by only a few points in a head to head match-up against the President. High employment rate, skyrocketing gas prices, ballooning national debt, and an exhausting war in Afghanistan created animosity against the President’s administration. Therefore, the President must decisively address these issues in the months ahead to ensure reelection. He must pull the jobless rate below 8%, and lower the price of fuel. The President must not prolong the war in Afghanistan and must not escalate tension with Iran. In essence, a President seeking reelection will need to embody Niccolo Machiavelli’s acumen and Desiderius Erasmus’ deferential image. Now, I will outline what the President must do to handily beat Romney.
To summarize this analysis, Hillary Clinton shows us how as we unite, the stronger our bond is. She uses clever ways to show this action. Though she did not win this presidential election, she is still loved by many. She helped herself because of the way she wrote and persuaded people to join her. Using rhetorical appeals

The political future of Texas has been widely debated since the 2012 election of Pres. Barack Obama, since the state has always played a significant role in impacting national elections. Nationally, there was uneven support among minority voters in favor of the president and Democrats, and as a result there has been an increasing interest in the Hispanic population growth in Texas (Lawrence.) The speculation regards how the changing complexion of Texas voters will influence the political process, with political pundits broadly predicting that since the Latino population typically votes for Democr...
Adrian Fenty’s tenure as mayor of Washington D.C. is a perfect example of the impact of black elite displacement. For one thing, the difficulties faced by a political entrepreneur are the direct result of running a deracialized campaign. A deracialized candidate cannot ignore the black vote and the ideal of linked fate especially if African-Americans comprise a majority of the electorate. Additionally, elite displacement can be observed in an open race where the incumbent has picked a successor.

Still, as one Republican official described her, Clinton is often viewed as “‘grating, abrasive and boastful’” (236). Generally, female candidates are expected to be “more caring, compassionate, and emotional than their male counterparts, who tend to be seen as tough, assertive, and decisive” (Bauer). This issue is common among female candidates, and this expectation has certainly impacted Clinton’s campaign. Despite her background as Secretary of State, Clinton is continually questioned by her opponents about her strength.

This basis for this research requires further explanation. The rationale for excluding Senators from this study and for narrowing the focus exclusively to black House members reflects the difference in representation between House members and Senators. By studying House districts comprised of a smaller electorate, one can draw important conclusions about the constituency characteristics and the subsequent...

The goal of Hillary’s speech is to persuade her audience that her ideas are valid, by using ethos, pathos, and logos. Hillary is the First Lady and Senator, she shows credibility as an influential activist for woman rights. “Over the past 25 years, I have worked persistently on issues relating to women, children, and families. Over the past two and a half years, I’ve had the opportunity to learn more about the challenges facing women in my country and around the world” (Clinton 2).
