The Constitution & Bill of Rights The U.S. Constitution was not adopted until 1787‚ after nearly 6 years of independence for the new country. From adoption to ratification in 1788‚ it produced a storm of controversy and debate over the nature and role of government. That debate was mainly between the Federalist and Anti-Federalists. The argument between those in support of the Constitution (which were the Federalists) and those opposed (which were the Anti-Federalists) outlined the strengths

Rizal X Reaction Paper I had a lot of preconceived ideas of what the plot of Rizal X would be. Based at the content of the promotional posters scattered all over the campus‚ I thought that Rizal X would just be another one of those plays that try to portray a modern day Rizal with modern day problems. So I was pleasantly surprised at how the play turned out. It was quite interesting and refreshing to see a play without a linear plot get successfully pulled off. The manner in which they correlated

Michael Schmeltz A.P. World History Mr. Drotar Diamond chapter 12 In Guns‚ Germs‚ And Steel chapter twelve Jared Diamond explains his theory of how the spread of writing was very influenced by geography (215).

Abraham Lincoln created a legend through his struggles to overcome his humble beginnings and achieving a revered name in history. Raised to "farm work‚" Lincoln still somehow built his image up‚ and became President of the United States. He exemplified the American idea of self-made man. Although he left behind a lasting influence on American politics and set many precedents for the future‚ he was nonetheless flawed. His humanness‚ reflected in what are believed to be contradictions‚ cannot be denied

In life‚ we frequently switch from one attitude to another and mix them together. In watching television‚ we may easily become absorbed in the program. Then something will jar us out of our spell‚ such as a breakdown in the illusion or the expression of ideas we disagree with. As a result‚ we will suddenly distance ourselves from what we are watching‚ and perhaps ridicule it or suspect the intentions of its creators. The critics of media have been trying to get us to cultivate this second attitude

I would have to agree with Socrates in this reading because he proved his arguments well. It made sense to me‚ especially with what is happening amongst our generation today. For one thing‚ just because a word says a certain thing‚ doesn’t mean it can’t have another meaning. Especially since there are so many different definitions and understanding of things‚ The same way Socrates said that even if something is being done by everyone‚ doesn’t make it alright to do it. There are still rules to
