America 's Crime Against Hillary Clinton Essay

Condoleezza Rice’s dedication is evident by her many hours of work per day. Not only does Rice stay with her ridiculous schedule but, she always puts her duties first. Rice tends to only put most of her time towards her job, not her personal life. Once Condoleezza Rice settled in as secretary of state, she began to looking at her job in a whole new perspective. For instance, she works hard to keep her private opinions to herself so she can keep her image as an enigma (First Black Women to Hold Post). Whether Rice is working as a ‘Spokesperson’ or Bush’s ‘Eyes and ears’ she serves solely as intermediary, never as an

The Kids in the group were accepted to a white school about 60 years ago. Those kids were, Maurice Soles, Anna Theresser Caswell, Alfred Williams, “Poochie” Hayden, Regina Smith, Latham Gail Upton, JoAnne Boyce, Robert Thacker, Bobby Cain, Minnie Jones, and Alvah McSwain were all part of the Clinton 12. These 12 individuals changed the thought of themselves by going to 1 school. Bobby Cain, said in his in words, “The only thing I was thinking about was my saftey of entering the school”. I bet that was pretty scary for that whole group not just Bobby.

When George Washington was elected President in 1789 by members of the fledgling United States of America, he was setting into motion a tradition that has stood the test of over 225 years - the presidential election. Even as the United States has seen dozens of wars, made hundreds of scientific advances, and selected thousands of politicians to seats everywhere from small town councils to Congress, the principles of the election have remained the same; the people band together to determine who will best protect their interests at home and assure that the US will always remain on top in foreign policy. Oftentimes, this is found to be a difficult decision, as public opinion is constantly wavering. One sees this in action particularly during the 1992 election - a battle of wills between Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Ross Perot; complete with lead changes, major vote swings, and Perot’s unprecedented initial success - ultimately a false alarm to the bipartisan establishment.

President Bill Clinton began an affair with Monica Lewinsky, a White House intern, in 1995. Later in 1998, when confronted with questions in regards to an affair with Monica Lewinsky, Clinton lied under oath in front of a grand jury. This, however, was not his first lapse in judgment as viewed by the Senate and Congress. The President and his wife, Hillary, found themselves involved in the Whitewater scandal beginning in 1978. In addition, during his campaign, Clinton was accused of draft dodging and rumors were spread in regards to his possible marriage infidelity. President Bill Clinton continued to find himself caught in the middle of scandals involving: Whitewater, Paula Jones, and most notably, Monica Lewinsky. The way Clinton handled

The government of the United States controls countless affairs in the world. They control everything from the currency to the court systems. Individuals are suppose to be able to trusting your government system, which has not been the case in many different circumstances. From Richard Nixon to the Whitewater scandal, the government has been everything but honest.

Presidential nominee, Hillary Rodham Clinton, in a recent speech at a private fundraising event geared toward LGBT rights supporters, addressed her political opponent, Donald J. Trump and his supporters. The fundraiser was hosted by singer and actress, Barbra Streisand and her wealthy counterparts. The former Secretary of State argued that half of Donald Trump’s supporters can be put into a “basket of deplorable” and alluded that the other half are simply anti-government. Clinton supported her assertion by using logical fallacies by making hasty generalizations, faulty cause and effect, and bandwagon appeals. She also solidified her reasoning by stating, the supporters in the “basket of deplorable” are racists, sexists, xenophobic, and many

Born in Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A., she attended Wellesley College, then earning a J.D. (Juris Doctor) from Yale Law School in 1973. This hardworking presidential candidate is a woman who’s been fighting for children and families for over forty years. Someone who has provided her best works in reaching over the limits of a woman and providing millions of children with health care. This person is Hillary Clinton, and these are the only some of the biggest accomplishments she has made during her lifetime, there can and will be more if she gets voted as President of the United States of 2016-2020. She has been through many experiences in government, such as being an American lawyer and politician, U.S.

James Madison, in writing the US Constitution in 1787, intended that the system of checks and balances would separate the powers of the government branches and counter a “tyranny of the majority”. He carefully sought to distribute powers in a way that prevents any one faction from dominating. Under this system, the President can appoint federal judges, grant pardons, veto bills, propose laws, reject part of bills, etc. Equally, the Congress can override presidential veto, impeach the President, ratify treaties, etc., and the Courts can declare laws and executive orders unconstitutional. The contemporary system of checks and balances isn’t working as Madison intended as illustrated by the impeachment of President Clinton, the government

Author of The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness and an associate professor here at Ohio State, wrote an article “Why Hilary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote.” This article not only touches on how Hilary Clinton is only using black people as her “winning card (Alexander, 2)” in the 2016 Election, but also her past decisions she made as the wife of the 42nd President of the United States that should be taken into consideration by black voters. Mrs. Clinton and Bernie Sanders are the two Democratic Party presidential candidates. Although Bernie Sanders promises “a political revolution that will bring universal healthcare, a living wage, an end to rampant Wall Street greed, and the dismantling of the vast prison state...(Alexander, 5),” Hilary Clinton seems to be receiving all of the black votes, according to recent polls. Alexander explains that because many African Americans believed (and still believe) that Bill Clinton was the first “black president,” Ms. Clinton will receive several black votes.

My research about why Hilary Clinton lost the presidency seemed to lead me to all the answers. She was unprepared. Despite that I see the data and the numbers, I still believe she should have won. She had the majority vote. It was minor mistakes that she made, but I assume that the price she must pay. I am a firm believe that if it is meant for you, then it will be yours and no one can take it away from you. Unfortunately, it was not meant for her. She lost because she assumed that prior voting behavior would swing in her favor, she assumed that just because she was the well know experienced candidate that that would lead her to win, and she assumed that it was all secure. She expected it to be handed to her because she did deserve it because

According to President Bill Clinton, “We have a chance to pass the toughest, the smartest crime bill in the history of the United States,” and this was the California residents ' belief at the time the Three Strikes and you’re out law took effect in 1994.The purpose of the Three Strikes Law is to punish habitual offenders upon receiving their third conviction of any felony. Initially, if an individual receives a serious or violent felony conviction, this is a first strike; subsequently, the second serious or violent felony charge is a second strike and the individual will serve double the time originally assessed for the first felony. Finally, upon the third felony conviction an individual receives a minimum sentence of twenty five to life in prison. Even though twenty-three states, including the federal government, several politicians such as, Senator Bob Dole, and President Bill Clinton supported the passage of the Three Strikes Law. Undoubtedly, the Three Strikes bandwagon happened during a time in society when fear of crime was at its peak; as a result, law enforcement and other government officials went to the extreme in promising citizens to end habitual crime. Therefore, if the Three Strikes Law is to be a fair and impartial punishment for all criminals’ committing serious and violent crimes; then the crime committed must fit the consequences. Thus, is it fair to condemn a man who has two previous serious felonies for stealing a one dollar item on his third offense,

Jon Cozart begins his satire of the 2016 political campaigns by targeting on Hillary Clinton first. In order to understand the claims, he makes in the piece it is necessary to have an understanding of all of the different events that were happening during the campaign. Without an understanding of the political climate throughout the campaigns, Cozart’s claims are not as potent. Specifically, in Hillary’s section he uses her focus on women’s rights and her reputation as shifty as the foundation for his argument. Jon Cozart believes Hillary to be power hungry and egotistical and uses rhetorical tropes and schemes to paint this picture of Hillary.

Hilary Clinton has been called many slanderous things: controversial, a cheater, and a corrupt emailer . However, American voters should take into consideration her potential as a grandiloquent leader. Hilary Clinton has several years of political experience due to her being the first lady during her husband’s 1992 presidential run . In addition to this, she has served as the United States’ Secretary of State from 2009-2013 , Arkansas First Lady , and as the United States Senator for New York from 2001 to 2009 . Her political influence can be compared to numerous female political figures such as Madeleine Albright , the first woman to be appointed as the United States Secretary of State or even “the Iron Lady”, Margaret Thatcher, who was Britain’s

After one of the most unprecedented campaigns, the polls declared Donald Trump as the forty fifth president of the United States leaving the glass ceiling within the javits center intact. Donald Trump’s victory concludes one of the most bitter election the country has ever experienced. How did a man with no political background defeat a candidate with years of experiences such as being the first lady, holding a spot in the senate, and being former secretary of state appointed by president Obama. There are countless reasons to why Clinton lost and why Trump won throughout after the bitter two year campaign but, Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign as not for nothing. She did not shatter the glass ceiling but left a big enough crack to allow the light through.

At the same time, Hillary was the First Lady of Arkansas, then First Lady of the United States, and became the United States Senator of New York before her campaign for presidential candidacy in 2008. Perhaps the hardest striking fact against Hillary’s campaign comes from Bill Clinton’s 1998 Lewinsky scandal during his presidency. Even years after Bill’s time in the White house, Hillary is in recent news for casting Miss Lewinsky as the scapegoat to save Bill presidency (Sanchez par. 10). In Sheehy’s article “Hillary’s Hamlet Moment”, she emphasizes Hillary as a strong advocate for women’s rights (par. 26-30). But even as a feminist, why was it that the woman was victimized and why did Hillary not stand up to her husband? With such a long history of both Hillary and Bill’s involvement in the government, perhaps if a new candidate ran for president, America would be more inclined to vote for a fresh face, thus leading to her potential defeat in the next
