Zerfliesse, Mein Herze
“Zerfliesse, Mein Herze” is from Johann Sebastian Bach's St John Passion, also known as Passio secundum Joannem. A passion is a musical work which depicts Jesus' life from his visit to Jerusalem to his crucifixion--this work is specifically derived from the Gospel of John. “Zerfliesse, Mein Herze” is about Jesus’ death after he has been crucified. I decided to understand this piece metaphorically rather than literally. I saw the piece as mourning after a great loss. The loss had an outcome much worse than initially foreseen, and people everywhere were grieving.
2016. The Democratic Party presidential candidates were Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. Some of the Republican Party presidential candidates include Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson,

    Businessman Donald Trump and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were the two major party nominees.

    As George Washington retired from his presidential position in 1796, he left a grim reminder to the people of the newly independent United States of America: the independence of states, peace at home and abroad, safety, prosperity, and liberty are all dependent upon the unity between states. To promote the national strength, he urges the people to place their identity as Americans above those of their state, region, and interests. In fear of the impeding sectionalism, Washington included a fair warning to the people of the United States, the dangers of political parties to the government and the country as a whole. The idea of political parties, although warned thoroughly by our very first president, continuously solidified itself into the core of American government until it has become two standing pillars of modern politics: the Democratic Mules and its counterpart, the Republican Elephants. In 21st century politics, these two reigning parties, both having changed and altered their focus over time, have maintained a core value system, ideas beliefs, and key constituencies, which are made apparent throughout political campaigns; no better evidence than the 2012 political party platforms articulates the political position which each party represents.…

Florida, the fourth largest electoral vote state, had a nail biting recount due to the ambiguity of the final results. Nonetheless, here contends the political and economic effects of the campaign, and the way the nation changed due to the decisions of the winner.…
