“We’re back, and now we have Miss Georgia who is a Journalist for the New York Times, and she has had a lot of achievements for her new book coming out about our world. She has traveled the whole world looking for the perfect story for the perfect time and ocasion. How are you Georgia?” “Well Jimmy I am doing pretty good right now, except for the fact that Donald Trump is our new president.” I sayed with a dissapointed look on my face. “Ha Ha, say how do you feel about our democracy now days?” “Well as a democrat I believe we should be a communist county, and we should have equal rights.” “Yah why didn’t Hillary become president? It is so stupid.” “I totally agree she should have become president, I dont think she did because of …show more content…
I will pay you $2,000, and I will pay for the first class ticket.” “Sounds good when do you want me to go.” “Could you leave tomorrow afternoon?” “ TOMORROW!” Now I was not going to pass on this opportunity, I mean who would pass on that, plus I needed the extra money. “Ah sure, I will be at the airport at what time?” “2:00, does that still work” “Ya sounds good” “Ok I will tell the airline, good night.” “Good night.” The next day I got out of bed and started to brush my long red locks. When my phone started to buzz, it was a text from the Miss. Raliff, which stated… “Hello Georgia, this is Miss. Raliff again and I wanted to let you know that we are all set and ready for you to go to Rome the fight leaves at 2:00 today hope to see you then.” “2:00, that is two hours from now and I live on the other side of New York!” So I rushed to my closet and through a bunch of accessory items into my suitcase and called it good, to be honest the thing that took the longest was putting on my makeup that is probably the most important thing. I through on some clothes and rushed out of my apartment as fast as I could. To be honest I was really excited to get out of this horable country I mean I would go anywhere except for America. With the airport as my target I ran to my car and pushed on the gas. When I got to the airport I rushed in to gate 35B with my phone in my hand, not knowing who this ladie was or how this ladie looks. When I got to
“I know you’re sore about not collecting the reward, but you could still catch a ferry to St. Louis. I’d pay the fair for you.”
On August 2, 1923, Calvin Coolidge was vacationing at his father's home at Plymouth,Vermont when one night he was awakened by the tragic news of Warren Harding's death. Harding ,who had been on a public speaking tour of the West, when his health began to deteriorate, tried poorly to alleviate the scandal that have been plaguing his presidency. Praying by candlelight, Coolidge descended the stairs to the plain living room of his father's house, lighted only by two kerosene lamps. Upon an old wooden business desk, a copy of the US Constitution was found and Coolidge took the oath of office, as his father
Since the creation of the United States of America, the power of the President has increased dramatically. Specifically, regarding foreign affairs, the power of the President has greatly increased. According to foreign policy specialist Michael Cairo, the Constitution originally gave Congress the majority of war powers. While the formal powers of Congress include the power to declare war, raise and support an army, and regulate commerce, the President was only meant to mainly be Commander in Chief and negotiate treaties in regard to foreign affairs. The President’s role of leading the armed forces may seem like it would give him the authority on all issues regarding foreign affairs, but this power was granted to the President so that he could react quickly if a national emergency occurs. Although Congress was originally given the majority of war powers, Presidents have begun to utilize unilateral authority in the realm of foreign policy. In the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and more recently in Iraq and Afghanistan, the President deployed troops without a declaration of war from Congress.
Theodore Roosevelt was one of our greatest presidents. He created the FDA and improved the position of the presidency greatly. Before Theodore came to be president, the position of presidency was slow and wasn’t very interesting so he made the executive branch more powerful by starting new reforms and a strong foreign policy. The life of a president is hard. It is full of stress, responsibilities, and a strong dedication the welfare of your country. Theodore had to deal with all of these presidential stresses, taking up much of his time. Do you know, though, that despite being a president, he led a life of excitement and freedom that many other presidents had never before experienced? Theodore, “Teddy” as his first wife Alice called him,
“Don’t worry, Allie Mae. Charleston is not yet in the hands of the Yankees- I’m sure we can rustle something up.”
“I’ve been saying that even before he announced he was running. I just like the things he was saying. I like the way he talks.”
“No. They won’t start any official business until tomorrow morning. The only thing that will be on tonight are the talking heads and analysts opining about the Liberty Amendments. I don’t need to watch them; their opinions are meaningless.”
Days later, i made my decision to fly. It was risky for me but I wanted to get there as fast as possible. I was packing my bags day after day, night after night. When everything was done and over with, I got the rest of my things and said goodbye, I’ll
"Let's start by, you guys brought me here to talk about Iowa politics and the caucus tonight not to talk about my kids and that was a promise. But as things go in the world of media you guys don't always keep your promises evidently."

Presidents of the United States of America have been around since the country became it’s own. Each president is given certain responsibilities and rights. Presidential power is listed in the Constitution but since then, there’s been room for more responsibilities to come into play. The powers exercised in the modern world surpass those included in the Constitution. Today, the president has a number of offices and departments serving under him. These institutions help keep the government together and everything running smoothly. The presidents rely on a number of other things. Some include elections, political parties, interest groups, the media, and public opinion. There are different kinds of powers granted to the president. While some
As soon as the door opened, the heat hit me. It was like putting a hot iron in front of my face. But it felt even worse as there was a slight wind which pushed the heat towards me. My body was surrounded in a blanket of heat and I even started to sweat slightly. My uncle told me to wait by the lift as he went to collect the car so I wouldn’t have to walk as far and drag my suitcase along. While I waited, I took time to look around at the surroundings. I could see mountains which stretched towards the clouds and the airport behind me. There were a vast number of people walking around from their flight looking drowsy and with no energy. The frequent red double-decker bus also came and a few planes flew above my head. I didn’t even have to look, but I could hear the planes departing and arriving. The planes all looked the same in the sky, big and white with some sort of logo. During the wait, I took a few steps to take away the cramp. Although I had trainers on, I could feel and see that the floor was new. The concrete looked
The name of my President is Bill Clinton, the 42nd President of the United States of America. Bill Clinton was born on August 19, 1946, in the small town of Hope, Arkansas. Bill was named after his father, William Jefferson Blythe II, who had been killed in a car accident just three months before he was born. Bill’s birth name was William Jefferson Blythe III. His mother, Virginia Cassidy Blyth, moved to New Orleans, Louisiana, to study nursing and find a way to support herself and Bill Clinton, and he stayed with his grandparents in Hope. Eldridge and Edith Cassidy taught Bill strong values and beliefs teaching him that everyone is created equal no matter how different of skin or race they seemed. His mother returned in
Although it is often said that the President of the United States holds the most powerful office in the world, this does not mean that he is able to decide very much for himself. The American Constitution, which was adapted in 1789, clearly states the Separation of Powers. Thus, the president makes up only one third of the government, namely the executive branch. He is also controlled by a complex system of checks and balances, which makes sure that he (or any of the other branches, for that matter) does not become too powerful. We will now have a look at the different problems which may be facing a recently elected president, and then discuss to what extent his powers are important.
