The rising young Republican politician Theodore Roosevelt unexpectedly became the 26th president of the United States in September 1901, after the assassination of William McKinley. Young and physically robust, he brought a new energy to the White House, and won a second term on his own merits in 1904. Roosevelt confronted the bitter struggle between management and labor head-on and became known as the great “trust buster” for his strenuous efforts to break up industrial combinations under the Sherman Antitrust Act. He was also a dedicated conservationist, setting aside some 200 million acres for national forests, reserves and wildlife refuges during his…
The president is a very important person. Homeless people are not. Society has many "rungs" on the so called "social ladder." A homeless person would probably be at the bottom. Where as, the president would be near the top. A rich and powerful man like the president means a lot more to the world than a homeless man. If the president were shot the whole country would cry, but if a homeless man was shot few would shed a tear.…
In“Trump’s Bluster Is Heard Around the World,” an article published on Yahoo! Politics by Gregory Katz, sarcastic tone and vivid descriptions portray Donald Trump as a selfish human being to manipulate readers he will not be a good president. Katz’s sarcastic and criticizing tone adds to the negative view of Trump presented in this article;“His is clearly a recognized name worldwide, which is not to say it's a beloved one.” Katz then proves this point by quoting individuals from around the world. In the first description of Trump, a woman who lives next to a Trump resort calls Trump a spoiled “strange fish.” She then describes his toddler-like tantrums, causing an image of diaper wearing Trump whining and flopping for what he wants to pop into our heads. Katz’s next proof is a video of Mexican comedians dressed as Donald Trump performing an act written from his statements. The comedians are all wearing fake guts, Neanderthal clothing, and blonde wigs. Katz writes, “It's striking how many people know of him at all,” as if Trump is some new American celebrity who is just now getting attention for his statements. It is almost impossible to not recognize the Trump name. His name is on everything he owns, and he owns buildings, programs, and boats worldwide. Trump had been known by the world way before he decided to run for president. To end the article and finish his characterization of Trump, Katz writes,“That would be one side of Trump that few if any have seen — one who says ‘sorry’.” Like Buzzfeed and Alphacat, Katz includes mockery of Trump so viewers will chuckle at their possible leader. This humor alongside Katz’s sarcastic and condescending tone alarm readers that Trump is well known, not well…
Leadership has been important throughout human history. But why is leadership makes it so important? There are many answers to that question. First of all, mankind has always needed leaders. Without leaders, this world would not be able to function properly. Second, leaders have an influence on people, may it be good or bad. The choices that a leader makes can leave an impact on people to do something that the said leader believes in. Third, leaders have a big impact on the outcome of the future of society. The leader could decide to choose a way to settle a matter, whether it is good or bad, and those choices could lead to either the destruction or growth of a nation.…
In linguistic terms, "bling" is an ideophone (a sound intended to evoke an idea)—it is not onomatopoeia, because the act of jewelry shining does not make a sound. The form "bling-bling" is a case of reduplication.…
President Lyndon B. Johnson and his administration passed several legislations and supported many programs that attempted to repair the numerous political, economic, and social problems of the United States during the 1960s. His administration responded to most of the problems effectively, but with the issue of civil rights, for example, they didn’t always fix the problems to the best of their ability. But most importantly was his attack on the “war on poverty.” Acts, like the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, assisted citizens of the US through attacking the “war on poverty” and creating opportunities for the children of the future.…

Theodore Roosevelt was a big part in American History although he faced troubles but that did not stop him from his dream which has impacted Americans after him.…
What makes a president great? A great president can be many things; for instance, they can lead their country, protect their country, avoid wars, have the personality that America loves, and he/she can lead their country the good times and the bad times.

The President of the United States holds a lot of power and needs to be mature, confident, and have strong moral values. So in this election where both candidates are facing controversies that are doing damage to their campaign, it is hard to decide who is more fit to be the president of the United States especially when it appears that neither candidate is fit to lead this country. Trump has accomplished a lot in his career like his business, his campaign and his policies which would help the economy while improving the country ass a whole. Trump also has several policies that he would like to enact that he would believe would help our country be more efficient and safer, unlike Clinton who wants to restrict some rights and risk…
