Why Is Hillary Clinton Wrong
America has a difficult decision to make when it comes down to choosing the next president. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are in a race to win over votes to become president in 2017. Both have different views on many policies, including abortion, immigration, and taxes. Abortion is a big controversial issue. Many believe that abortion should be illegal, while others are pro-choice. Hillary Clinton is pro-choice. Clinton is a proud supporter of Planned Parentshood, a non-profit organization that provides abortion services. Clinton wants to end the Hyde Amendment which prohibits funding for most adoptions except in the case of rape, incest, or to save the mother’s life. (Andrusko, 2016) Not only does she want to repeal the amendment, but she also wants to force taxpayers to fund abortions. Hillary Clinton also supports abortions through all nine months of the pregnancy and believes that abortion is a “fundamental human right”. …show more content…
He believes that it is the primary responsibility of the government to protect the rights of its citizens. The government should not lessen one’s right to have a life by denying them protection. He is against abortion except in cases of rape, incest and protecting the life of the mother. He also opposes the use of government funds to pay for abortions.
In my opinion, I believe that Hillary Clinton is wrong. A baby starts feeling pain at eight weeks into the pregnancy. Allowing women to have an abortion at a later time in the pregnancy is cruel. Clinton chooses to ignore the fact that unborn babies are capable of feeling pain and believing that one has the right to take another’s life is inhumane. “Tearing unborn babies apart, limb from limb, is a violation of the fundamental right of every human person to life.” (Andrusko, 2016). Just like Donald Trump, I myself am pro-life. There are many ways to avoid abortion, like adoption and foster

    Ultimately, she argues that the fetus are not human beings therefore, we should not worry about if we should be able to kill them. She states that the fetus is genetically human, but she claims that research has shown that a fetus is not morally a human. Genetically human is known as a member of the homo sapiens species and being morally human can be summed up by saying one that gives us traits that make us have moral rights. She compiles a list of attributes that make a human morally human: consciousness, reason, self-motivated activity, communication, and self-awareness (not necessarily all of them). She concludes that because the fetus is not morally a human until around the third trimester, so the fetus is not a human until that point, which makes an abortion acceptable any time before the third trimester, or around twenty or so weeks. However, she doesn’t agree with allowing the individual to have an abortion done after reaching the state where the fetus is morally…

    While I am pro-choice like Warren, I do not agree with the entirety of her argument. Her qualifications for personhood exclude several groups from the moral community, such as infants and young toddlers. Through her reasoning, there would be just as little harm in killing an two year old child as in killing a three month old fetus. Therefore, I don’t think her qualifications to be included into the moral community are acceptable. I do agree with her point about a fetus’ potential rights, though- that they have some rights, but not full rights, and therefore the woman’s right to her own body override…

    One of the biggest moral issue today is woman's rights with abortion. Many people argued for the rights to keep abortion while others argued for banning it. In the article "The Rights of a Woman Do Not Outweigh the Rights of A Child" by Judith Jarvis Thomson, who is a philosopher and invented an analogy for her debate, talks about how a child has more right than the mother in the case of abortion and that abortion is the same thing as "killing" , Thomson says. Thomson claims the idea that anyone can argue that all abortion is impermissible. The article "Abortions Should Be Restricted to Before Twenty Weeks Gestation" by Douglas Johnson who is…

    Abortion: Obama VS. Romney

    Obama has a very interesting view on abortion. Obama “has revealed himself to be a strong supporter of the pro-choice position and maintains that it is a woman's right to choose what happens with her body” (Zaimov. 2012). He does claim to be a Christian but it is interesting that he views abortion this way; although, he does find it wrong but thinks we shouldn’t be able to make the choice for women whether or not they should keep their baby. A big company that deals with abortion is Planned Parenthood. If re-elected he still plans on opposing anything that might stop the funding for this company. They help women get the birth control they need, abortions but also to help you get the treatment you need for STD’s and such. He will plan on letting women make their own choice with what…

    There are many differences between a “pro- choice” position on abortion and a “pro- life” position. People who are “pro- choice”, then they believe that it is the woman’s decision if she wants to have a child and carry it for nine months. If someone is “pro- life”, then they are against anyone getting an abortion. They believe that the fetus has the same rights as a human being. The argument the “pro- life” people strongly believe is that every undeveloped human is sacred and must be protected by the government. The “pro- choice” people argue that when a humans personhood cannot be proven in pregnancies, then the government does not have the right to prevent a woman her right to decide whether or not she wants to continue with the pregnancy.…

    Women have the right to make their own medical decisions, and should not have the input of the government. According to Fred Lucas, “ Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare. Liberals strongly support a woman's right to choose a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay, and we oppose any and all efforts to weaken or undermine that right.” (Lucas). Basically, Lucas is saying that as a whole liberals believe that the woman has the right to decide what she chooses for herself and the fetus.…

    Everyone’s entitled to their own choice. Whether your pro-choice or not, it’s still your decision. It’s your body and you’re allowed to make the decisions for it.

    Abortion Vs Pro Life

    • 708 Words
    • 3 Pages

    There are many arguments against abortion claiming how unethical it is. Three of those arguments are the following: First, it has been proven that embryos bond to their mother during the first trimester or early in the second trimester (Fletcher pg.3). Second, a mother that has terminated her pregnancy early on has not had adequate time to think about her decision (American Life League 136). Finally, not only is the mother killing that one person, but she is also killing every other human being that would have existed due to that baby being born. (Ronald Reagan Speech-1983) When a person has this point of view towards abortion there is only one option, not having an abortion. Pro-lifer's feel abortion is morally wrong, and that is equivalent to the murder of a living, breathing human…

    Abortion has been a heavily debated political, ethical, and moral dispute continuing for more than a decade after it was legalized in the United States in January 22, 1973. This decade long debate between “pro-life” activists and “pro-choice” activists usually stem from ones ethical and moral values of whether it is right to surgically or medicinally terminate a fetus and the extremes, like death of the mother, which could occur from the pregnancy. In this debate, I would view myself as a “pro-choice” activist because I firmly believe that abortion should continue to be legal to decrease the number of unintended mothers, broken or single parent families, and family poverty.…

    In the 1820’s, various ideas against abortions began forming in the United States. Connecticut passed a statute targeting apothecaries who sold poisons to women for purposes of abortion, and New York made abortions a felony eight years later. The criminalization of abortions accelerated throughout the 1860’s all the way to the 1900’s. Some states did allow abortions to generally protect a woman 's life or pregnancies due to rape or incest. The famous Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade in 1973 legalized abortions throughout the U.S. The Court argued that the First, Fourth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments protect an individual’s zone of privacy. On Jan. 24th, 2005, Hillary Clinton made a speech addressing her thoughts about abortion. “Let’s defend the right to an abortion while doing all we can to ensure that fewer and fewer women exercise it.”…

    This article seeks to demonstrate how Chris Abani has created fragmented self and identities through the structure of his novel GraceLand (2004). Both the structure of the novel and the multiple urban spaces involve the reader with the displacement and the search for the identity of the characters. Furthermore, the present essay would point out that globalization in Nigeria has led to the economic exploitation of the poor and has caused the commodification of the body of the local Nigerians. The novel GraceLand is about the life of the protagonist Elvis between the late 1970s and the early 1980s in Afikpo and Lagos. In this novel, the reader is confronted with global concerns such as the abuse of power, poverty, child abuse, and organ trafficking…
