The campaign of freshman Senator Ted Cruz has announced that it made an impressive donations haul since he announced that he was running for president. Touting his connection to grassroots voters, the senator also downplayed the role that big money donors have played in funding his campaign. Overall, the campaign has received $14 million in three months, a sum that gives his campaign enough money to go up against fundraising juggernaut and front runner Jeb Bush.…

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 Presidency as a whole has changed in many ways throughout the course of history; specifically, in the relationship between the president and the public. The Constitution is vague when it describes communication of the president: a president must say why they veto a bill, and they must inform the public on the state of the union (Ellis 82). President George Washington had the task of establishing how the president would interact with the public. During the early days of the presidency the President communicated seldomly with the public; this is because the president was supposed to be held at a higher standard than the public, and they were supposed to communicate with Congress. Washington worked towards having the office of the president…

It was so refreshing hearing people talk about the real issues in this country, like the economy, healthcare, education, and corruption. Unlike the Republican Debate which mostly focused on Planned Parenthood, Donald Trump, and Iran.…

I do not specifically identify with democrat or republican. I think that both parties have some good things on their agenda and there are also things that I don’t agree with personally, that are on both the democratic and republican agenda. With that being said I would like to consider myself an Independent. I think it’s common for people of my age (19) to not fully commit to one party.…
Secondly, I would concentrate on the education system of the First Nations people. Equal education privileges for First Native people have been one of the biggest, most dates issues. Presently, First Nation people do have several benefits such as free undergraduate studies in Canada, etc. I still believe education is something that needs to be enhanced. As the National President of the Assembly of First Nations I would make sure there was a funding for lifetime learning of our First Nations peoples. I would make sure the languages of First Nations peoples would be recognized, and I would finally improve the issues of the regional issues. Education is a necessity in our society and I believe First Nations should have the opportunity to learn and be educated just like any…
If I were the President of the United States, the first major challenge I would address is the state of our economy. I think it is important because most of the issues our country faces stem from unemployment, bankruptcy, credit crisis and outsourcing of businesses. Our economy also affects global economy, so by fixing our economy we will not only be fixing our own but also the global economy, benefitting billions.…
