Essay on 2005 State of the Union Address

In President Bush’s Address to the Nation Speech the day after September 11 (9/11) in 2001, President Bush wants to inform the country of this tragic event and what was going to happen for the country.

Obama believes that the government plays a central role in helping everyone to deal with critical challenges. This is because its effects are far reaching and having an adverse impact on middle class Americans. Moreover, there is less opportunity for young adults who go to college and earn degrees. Yet, they are finding a job market that is unwilling to hire them. To deal with the issues, the President believes that Washington should have a stimulus program that is focused on: improving job growth, reducing taxes on the middle class, encouraging small businesses to innovate, supporting state / local governments and discourages outsourcing. (Killough, 2012)

Health Care upsets me greatly. He encouraged reform of health care by talking about China improving its economy, which is… not really happening. I feel like he never really answered any objections about the bill and just stated the benefits that the Democratic Party has been hawking the entire time. I feel like nothing is really being offered by the Democratic Party in response to the Republican assault on the bill, just more and more complaints about the Republican complaints. The fact that the Democrats are saying the Republicans aren’t providing suggestions as they lock the Republicans out of the discussion stages of the bill. Health Care absolutely needs to be fixed, but I don’t think that what the Democrats have should be implemented this quickly. Why not start with the necessities like malpractice reform and no denial for customers with the money and then build up to the free government healthcare for everyone?

The financial bailout on Wall Street rescued the economy from total collapse from faulty mortgage loans. Obama’s plans include reworking and changing the way the economy works for the better. George W. Bush gave tax cuts to Americans who earned over $1,000,000. A large sum of people don’t believe it was a fine idea. Obama will give tax cuts to working class people and small businesses, not to the wealthy. He will create tax credits of $500 per person and $1,000 per working families. Obama will also eliminate income taxes to senior citizens who less than $50,000 a year.

We must do what no generation has had to do before. We must invest more in our own people, in their jobs, and in their future, and at the same time cut our massive debt. And we must do so in a world in which we must compete for every opportunity. It will not be easy. It will require sacrifice, but it can be done and done fairly, not choosing to sacrifice for its own sake but for our own sake. We must provide for our Nation the way a family provides for its children."(William J. Clinton: "Inaugural Address," January 20, 1993. Online by Gerhard Peters and John T.

In his speech he states that it’s his “duty to tell us what should be done”. He reminds us that we are under the Great constitutional charter, This defines our powers. The people will be responsible for how often people the power delegated by the fifth article of the constitution. It will be up to the people who decide if at any time they should change to constitution. He is give the people the chance to decide for the government.

Lastly, the most worrisome of all, there was no mention of global climate change within Trump’s speech. Not mentioning the issue of climate change means that he is not concerned with it, and therefore by association, neither is America. Furthermore, the neglect of mentioning climate change within the speech means that he has no future intentions of addressing the issue, and that we will have to wait for our next president to act. This is time that we do not have to

Though Nikki Haley’s speech wasn’t as long as President Obama’s State of the Union address, it had a few ideas of changing the United States of America in a better way. Some of the changes she mentioned in the speech are fortify United States of America’s military and not letting illegal immigrants in the United States and welcoming legal immigrants.

The State of the Union Address given by President Barack Obama on January 12, 2016, has a confident tone. Throughout his speech, Obama references the strength and influence America has on other countries. The dominant and assertive diction and sentence structure used by Obama is confident, which leads to a powerful climax, “The United States of America is the most powerful nation on Earth. Period...when it comes to every important international issue, people of the world do not look to Beijing or Moscow to lead — they call us” (Obama). Tone is a speaker’s attitude toward the subject and audience.

Trumps speech has sparked controversy on whether he is fit to be president. Trump’s Inaugural Address conveys a negative tone of fear, making clear that freedom and justice are not his concern because his speech portrayed darkness, included a significant amount of bashing, and did not mention significant topics in his speech.

The most critical area of President Obama's approval rating has to do with the economy. To get America back to work as quickly as possible I proposed he immediately create new venture economic opportunity zones throughout the U.S., concentrating on those areas hardest hit by the recession. I'd focus specifically on Ohio, which has lost hundreds of thousands of jobs. My plan would be to roll out entrepreneurial assistance to new ventures with a solid business plan, and also a strong management team. Creating and fostering entrepreneurialism is critical for the overall successful functioning of a complex economy such as the U.S. (Trimi, Berbegal-Mirabent, 463). I would tell him that he also needs to become known as the Entrepreneurial Candidate, concentrating on small business and immediately removing the many barriers

Barack Obama’s second inaugural address was given in 2013 before his second term as president of the United States. The purpose of an inaugural address is to inform the people of the president’s plans they hope to accomplish during their term. Obama’s address was effective because Obama stated what he hoped to accomplish, but what made this speech effective and memorable. Some of the main points Obama hoped to tackle during his second term were reclaiming the spirit of the founding fathers, gay rights, climate change, and immigration, and he effectively addressed these issues through the use of several rhetorical tools; specifically parallelism, alliteration, and antithesis. Parallelism is the use of components in a sentence that are similar

Policy adoption - President Obama has tried to change the way the government spends its money and has made changes to keep it within its means.
