Mr. Trump Persuasive Essay
Hillary Clinton moved aggressively on Sunday to press her advantage in the presidential race, urging black voters in North Carolina to vote early and punish Republican officeholders for supporting Donald J. Trump, even as Mr. Trump’s party increasingly concedes he is unlikely to recover in the polls.

Aiming to turn her edge over Mr. Trump into an unbreakable lead, Mrs. Clinton has been pleading with core Democratic constituencies to get out and vote in states where balloting has already begun. By running up a lead well in advance of the Nov. 8 election in states like North Carolina and Florida, she could virtually eliminate Mr. Trump’s ability to make a late comeback.

At times, Mrs. Clinton is going beyond seeking simply a victory over Mr. Trump, asking voters to strengthen her hand in Congress and repudiate not just Mr. Trump but also Republicans

Calling Mr. Burr’s Democratic challenger, Deborah Ross, “exactly the kind of partner I need in the United States Senate,” Mrs. Clinton upbraided Mr. Burr for failing to reject Mr. Trump.

“Unlike her opponent, Deborah has never been afraid to stand up to Donald Trump,” Mrs. Clinton said, adding, “She knows that people of courage and principles need to come together to reject this dangerous and divisive agenda.”

It is a sign of the extraordinarily lopsided nature of the presidential race that, even in a Republican-controlled state like North Carolina, Mrs. Clinton is in a position to exhort voters to hand control of the Senate to Democrats. Though she is still not broadly popular, Mrs. Clinton has cast her candidacy — and now, perhaps, her party — as a safe harbor for voters across the political mainstream who find Mr. Trump

    A political realignment of 1936 saw the few African-Americans, who were not disenfranchise in their right to vote, abandon their allegiance to the republican party and realign to vote democrat. This realignment would result in a voting turnout trend that still exists today. African-Americans overwhelmingly support politicians who orient to the Democratic Party. The racial group represents a key minority of the electorate that most candidates seeking political office wish to gain. With this knowledge in mind, if one were to run for president as a Democrat, the candidate would most likely win in the state of Michigan versus the state of West Virginia.…

    In the New York Times, “Feminism, Hell and Hilary Clinton”, by Frank Bruni discusses how ridiculous the mentality is that if you are a woman you need to vote for Hilary Clinton. He briefly discusses some statements that were made by some very influential women, Madeline Albright and Gloria Steinem. Bruni seems to almost mock their opinions that “women are more or less damned if they’re not on Hilary Clinton’s team”. Bruni makes it known that he doesn’t disagree with these statements because he doesn’t like Hilary Clinton based on her gender, but more so on her policies. Bruni is able to use some aspects of ethos and logos in this op-ed, and his relaxed tone throughout makes his writing not only easy to read, but easy to agree with; this all…

    The results of the 1994 United States midterm election shocked the political system in the United States. The power in the House of Representatives had not reverted from Democratic dominance since 1952.1 As the clear winners of the 1994 elections, the Republican Party, had lofty goals after winning back the control of the legislative branch after 40 years. As the new majority party, the Republicans used this victory as a platform to reinforce their “Contract with America” ideology.2 Haley Barbour, chairman of the Republican National Committee, said a day after the election that the Republican success was based on “voters embracing Republican ideas of smaller governments, lower taxes and more individual freedom and personal responsibility.”3…

    Through the first presidential debate, Hillary Clinton has proved that she is the best choice for President. First, she proved that she is more empathetic to the common American. She herself came from a middle-class family. During the debate, she preached about her hardworking father, who worked in drapery. Trump came from a wealthy family, so he cannot relate to average Americans as well as Clinton can. She then expressed her desire for tax cuts for the middle class, and tax increases for the rich. She also mentioned how she intends to create 10 million jobs by investing in industries such as “clean energy”. She proved that she will do her best to make everyday life better for them. Next, she behaved more professionally then her opponent,…

    The current process of selecting nominees is one that is flawed for a number of reasons, with lack of consistency being the main reason for the flaws. While the Democratic Party assigns its delegates proportionally, the Republican Party has its assignment of delegates vary by state, whether it’s winner-take-all, proportional, or a hybrid system, and the percentage of the popular vote in the state needed to win the delegates also varies by state. This lack of consistency usually leads campaigning efforts by a candidate to be centered around some states more than others, and possibly ignoring states completely. If states feel left out by a candidate who doesn’t feel a state is necessary for winning the nominee, supporters of that candidate in…

    Rousey endorsement of Sanders prior to her biggest match ever is indication that she should have focused and trained harder instead of weighing in on presidential politics. Now Rousey is not an undefeated UFC fighter, Bernie is happy with the endorsement but might now win the nomination and everyone is still confused to why Rousey would endorse such a person. Hey if Sanders needs to go on the offense and get rough to beat Hillary, he might as well call Rousey. Maybe she can K-O Hillary in 14 seconds or lose in the second round like she did with Holm.

    As Denise Graveline summarized, female politicians can be “competent or likable, but not both.” Graveline also looked at other female politicians who faced the same double bind as Clinton is currently facing. She recognized that Geraldine Ferraro, the first female vice presidential candidate “lacked the credibility of a male candidate [and thus] adopted a stronger, more masculine style that may have suited her less” (Chozick). In many ways this is exactly what Clinton strives to reconcile by adjusting the way she speaks in order to appease her audience.When Clinton tries to speak as she is expected to as a woman, she doesn’t fit with society's idea of a powerful candidate. Simultaneously, when she employs features frequently attributed to men’s rhetoric she marks her speech as even more abnormal and her authenticity is questioned (Gunn). Traditionally, a man’s worth is determined by his accomplishments in his professional life, while a woman’s worth is based on intrinsic qualities with which she was born (Eckert and McConnell Ginet). Under this belief, it makes some sense that some people would struggle to value Clinton’s worth as a politician as she is a woman and also a politician. This idea also suggests why critics focus on Clinton’s manners of speaking more than those of any male politicians; language is an intrinsic quality, and…

    In 2012 President Obama spoke to a group of people at a fund raiser event in Texas and seemed optimistic that Texas would soon be a battleground for the Democratic Party (Parker, 2013). Unless Democrats possess an extraordinary strategic plan this could prove to be a challenging task to accomplish. Recent voting in Texas has faithfully been favorable toward the Republican ticket for over 30 years (Parker, 2013). There has been a widespread margin in the percentage of votes between Republican and Democratic candidates in the last four presidential elections. Currently Republicans occupy all elected statewide offices, both state and federal houses of Legislature, and both U.S. Senate seats (Secretary of State TX, 2013).…
