Global Issues In Presidential Elections

The word ‘terrorism’ can be traced back to the French Revolution and the reign of terror committed against the population of France in the 1790s. During this time, thousands of people were killed and the general population was severely oppressed. Also, some of the first instances of terrorist tactics, such as assassination and intimidation, were witnessed in the killing of prominent officials and other opponents of the Revolution. In general, terrorists aim to incite fear in the population through pre-meditated violent acts and gain publicity as a medium in achieving their goals. Such acts include taking hostages, bombings and assassinations, all of which create fear and compliance in a victim or audience. Terrorism can be distinguished from other types of political violence through its disregard for and intentional harming of innocent civilians. Also, terrorists usually adopt a state of mind where one side is always good and any opposition is bad and deserves to be punished. As a result, terrorists will always have some supporters who share the same radical thoughts as them and thus terrorism, as a whole, will always be accepted as a legitimate use of violence. This is the reasoning behind the famous phrase by Gerald Seymour, “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter”(QUOTE

Terrorism is an act that threatens or carries out violence with the intention to disrupt, kill or coerce against a body or nation in order to impose will. This means that a lot of groups use this method to get what they want. The groups use a variety of methods, groups such as:

In addition to solidarity, America must establish good and reliable foreign relations. This would form peace and safety in America and globally. In hopes that there will be no nuclear war and avoid our soldiers and civilians from harm, it is crucial for our President to establish strong relationships with foreign leaders; to listen, communicate and negotiate in ways that will benefit the entire country and avoid any rivalry.

Terrorism has been conducted throughout the world on numerous occasions. The groups that perform these actions come from multiple countries from all over the world. The United States even has some forms of terrorist groups and individuals. One of the biggest terrorist attacks was the destruction of the Twin Towers carried out by Al-Qaeda. Also recently there has been attacks in Paris and Great Britain, which were ISIS’s plan. The biggest terrorist organizations include the Taliban, Al-Qaeda and quite recently ISIS. The Taliban was founded in 1994, by Mullah Mohammed Omar, and they kill people in the name of jihad. Al-Qaeda was founded by Osama Bin Laden and also kill for jihad. Finally ISIS was founded recently hand continues to grow rapidly. They kill indiscriminately and how they see fit (Ppcorn, n.d.).

The policies brought by the two Presidential Candidates have both positive and negative consequences. Candidate Hillary Clinton’s policy towards Isis includes taking out Isis strongholds, work with allies, and strengthen defenses at home. Presidential Candidate Donald Trump’s foreign policy toward Isis is to eliminate them with full military force. Isis is a growing problem in our world and should not be overlooked by the Candidate elected to be the next President of the United States.

Terrorism is defined as an act of violence that is committed by an organization or a single person in order to be heard. Terrorist acts are usually based on a couple factors such as, historical grievances, foreign policy decision, poverty, and religion. Terrorism is not a new act amongst the world but something that has been around since the beginning. To understand a criminal you must think like a criminal, and understand why they committed a crime or a violent act, then you can prevent and conquer.

Including presidential elect Donald Trump, America has experienced forty four different presidents since being founded. Every one of those presidents has brought a different, attitude, political ideology, and worth ethic into the single seat that serves the most power in America. Growing up, students are taught about these so called “equal” branches of government. However, when the United States government is actually broken down, it is clear that one branch, or even one person, hold a majority of the power in America. The president is responsible for a wide range of things stretching across all aspect of government. Being commander and cheif, one of the most important duties is leading the Unite States military and handling national security

America has had many great leaders throughout its rich history. What is a president, is it not just another word for leader? George Washington was a military leader during the american revolution and later became the first president of the United States of America. He was a magnificent president and he set the bar for what the president should be like. Throughout history we have had many presidents some good some not so much. This upcoming election will decide our forty fifth president of the United States, and may be the single most important election we will ever have. All the presidents of the United States have had a problem that they had to deal with and that they would talk about in their campaigns to help them to be elected. The two candidates either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will have more than just one problem to deal with. Our nation is not in a very good position so the president we choose has to be able to think on his or her feet and be a strong leader we can trust. A lot of things come into effect when voting for the new president such as the way the battleground states vote. The battleground states are Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin. These states have a major impact on who will be the next president for the reason that most of the time the candidate that wins the election wins the majority of these states. With this being such a huge election that is so close in the polls we need everyone who can vote to

Being the leader of the free world is an accomplishment that citizens of the United States see as job with a vast amount of responsibility. Along with the responsibility comes great scrutiny. Presidents have come and gone, leaving a legacy that either creates a lasting memory of great leadership, or leaves a bad taste in the mouth of American voters. Leading the way in the land of the free is judged by three points: how the president chose to conduct themselves during controversial times, critical situations, and most importantly how they plan to help the citizens of the United States.

Every presidential election in the United States is different, but what makes this election stand out more than others? The candidates, obviously. But more importantly, it’s the economic and cultural issues that intensify this 2016 election.

During presidential elections in the United States, it has become customary for the main candidates (almost always the candidates of the two largest parties, currently the Democratic Party and the Republican Party) to engage in a debate. The topics discussed in the debate are often the most controversial issues of the time, and arguably elections have been nearly decided by these debates (e.g., Nixon vs. Kennedy). Candidate debates are not constitutionally mandated, but it is now considered a de facto election process. The debates are targeted mainly at undecided voters; those who tend not to be partial to any political ideology or party.[2]Presidential debates are held late in the election cycle, after the political parties have nominated

There you are, standing in the booth looking at the screen and all the candidates to choose from. You have entered all your votes except for the most important one. Who will you pick to be the president of the United States? You have been thinking about this decision for months. Who do you want to vote for? That is the question that plagues Americans every election year. The problem is most people do not have a complete understanding of the issues our country is facing. As well, they do not understand the plans each candidate has to deal with these issues. Another issue we face is that one out of every 10 Americans does not care about politics at all. This begs the question, how can we elect a president when so many people in our country are

One of the most important qualities that our president must have is the ability to be both goal and achievement oriented. I think this is an important quality because all the different aspects of our country that candidates base their campaign around and promise to improve mean nothing if they don’t take initiative and make these changes happen. There are so many things in the American system that are defective for instance, the immigration system, foreign policy, and health care to name a few. We need a president who has clear plans to reform and will then apply this initiative and set goals and achieve them. Another important quality our president must have is respect. I believe respect is one of the most vital qualities one can have. With

Commander-in-chief is the most powerful position to hold in the world. It involves making the most important decisions that will impact each citizen, other countries, and future generations to come. It takes someone who will be tough, commanding, and assertive. Our country needs someone who will fight for us, being pro-active rather than being all talk. They must defend and enforce the laws of the land which our founding fathers enacted. The 2016 presidential election is one of the most crucial elections yet. Decisions will be made that will have permanent consequences on us and on our country as a whole. Most importantly it will determine the direction of the Supreme Court. Our country certainly cannot go on as it has. Our country must act now and put the correct candidate in office before it is to late. We need someone with a lot of stamina. We must vote for someone who is fit, whose polices are in favor of this country, and who will work to benefit every American. The candidate and person we must elect as our president is Donald Trump.

Terrorism in the twenty-first century has some similarities and differences from terrorism in the twentieth century. Terrorism is, in its broadest sense, the use or threatened use of violence in order to achieve a political, religious, or ideological aim. Also useful to remember that because the two entities involved, the terrorists and the terrorized, are on the opposite end of the political, religious or ideological continuum, the same act is viewed by them differently. There is much sense in the phrase one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.
