Obama!!!

The biggest, most important thing to know is the idea of slavery around this election. I believe if Adam would’ve won presidency again, that slavery wouldn’t had been nearly as bad, that's without the creation of the cotton gin. Andrew Jackson was a slave owner himself, and believed that slavery was needed. The real source of all of Jackson’s money is slavery. He owned many slaves and also a cotton plantation, where cotton at this time was on high demand. So now you have a president who is for slavery, so wouldn’t you think that everyone else would be too? Nope. That’s not how it worked. The beliefs on slavery actually divided the north and south and later ended up creating a civil war in 1861.

Leadership is action,not a position”(Donald H. McGannon 1).On November 4, 2008, senator Barack Obama was elected as the first African-American of the United States of America. It was then on that he would lead the country for two terms and finally leave his legacy in 2017.Barack obama impacted most of the american peoples lives in a positive way like when he created more jobs. During the“ course of Obama’s two terms of presidency, he has shown multiple times through his actions on why he is such a great president.,Such as providing health care for the poor and helping the economy.For instance, obama averted an economic collapse.

November 4, 2008 marked a monumental moment in United States history. American presidential elections were revolutionized because of the 2008 presidential election between democratic candidate Barack Obama and republican candidate John McCain. After eight years, President George W. Bush., Americans were waiting for, what would be the key word of this election - change. The U.S. had the opportunity to witness history with either the first African-American president or first female vice president. It was a full year of pricey campaigning, nationally broadcasted debates, and party strategies, media controversies involving candidates and their families. It also was a year where America realized how the Internet can affect an election. In June

However, as stated before, over the recent years since candidates have been using the internet to reach out to the younger generations they are slowly starting to become even more involved in politics like voting. This causes the candidates to have a higher chance of being able to win. This also results in a change on the group of people who will most likely vote. For example, using the same example of the 2008 presidency Obama promised a lot to minority groups this caused the minority to vote for him. Like he promised to help fix the immigration process this caused hispanics who were citizens to vote. The reason this was truly remarkable is because people of color are usually have lower rate of voters but because of the promises it caused a good portion of people to vote. Currently, with this election that is occurring is going to be similar to 2008 because this election is really causing people of color to vote because this election is really going to change what happens to the U.S. Regardless, for which candidate people chose they have strong opinions which caused people friends and family to argue over the issue. As well as, because of the controversial issues both candidates Clinton and Trump said or done people are either voting against or for them. Especially the minority because of the comments Trump has

Most Americans are confident on who they vote for during elections. With the upcoming election people have strong opinions that they stand by when dealing with the candidates. We as proud citizens vote because we believe that our candidate should be in office and in charge of our country. That is why it is hard for people to hear that most people’s votes do not actually do anything. The Electoral College decides the candidate for us without the public even knowing. That is why the Electoral College needs to be fixed or disbanded.

Election Day is a standout amongst the most energizing days of the year. Our country meets up to choose a leader who will speak to us on the worldwide stage for the following four years. We will choose a leader that will remain for our rights as natives, students, representatives and businesses. We will choose a leader that will ideally stay faithful to their obligations. It is a major

The United States elected an African-American president in 2009. This election has been touted as the biggest leap for African-Americans and their place in society. There are others in the United States who dislikes President Obama solely for his skin color. The election did not solve the cultural diversity issues in the United States. The election did, however, open the door much wider to some of its citizens by making it socially acceptable to have an African American in a leadership role.

Barry uses a humorous tone as a rhetorical device throughout his essay. He uses jokes and sarcasm to persuade

One of the biggest adversity’s Barack has faced is racism. Many people didn’t believe Barak could not become president do to the color of his skin. He experienced this all throughout his life starting in early childhood to the present.While he was in his early childhood, he remembers being made fun of for the color of his skin, he was left out and disliked. (Michael Nelson,2017,p.np.)

Presidential elections determine who will lead the country for the next fours years. There will always be a winner and a loser but some candidate were remotely bad choices from the start. This has occurred with both Democratic and Republican nominees who will only be recognized for their great defeat. Some of the candidates who were clearly bad choices were George McGovern and Barry Goldwater.

Andre is eventually critiqued by his White co-workers for not being as distraught as they are. He’s told that it does not seem as if he cares about the country. Andre rants to his coworkers, saying that he loves America, even when it doesn’t love him. He then explains to them the history of racism for Black people in America, and how these tragedies have been normalized in his world. This is a direct reflection of the real word post elections, as people of color were indeed disappointed, but many were used to being let down by the system. Many of them are perceived as unconcerned about the election results because they did not react the same way that privileged communities have reacted. The fact that Andre had to state whether he loved America or not in order to justify his emotions reinforces the ideologies of respectability politics. Respectability politics is a loose term that essentially “involves impression management behaviors” as they are believed to be a “presentation of self for African Americans as a necessary or useful strategy to be safe and successful in a racist society” (Lee, Hicken. 2016). By definition, this sounds realistic, but in execution, it

The first quotation expresses John Howard Griffin’s problems that he faces just because of his color of skin. Whites show pure hatred to certain Blacks because of what other Blacks did. “I glanced back to see the boy halted at mid-block, leaning against the wall. ‘I’m in trouble,’ I said to the couple. They ignored me” (Griffin, 38). The reason why the couple completely ignored him was because of the color of his skin. During this time period, Blacks were not treated equally to whites. It was unfair because they were not treated as individuals, they were treated as an inferior race to whites. John Howard Griffin experienced the racism towards him as soon as he went into public, just because of the pigmentation of his skin.

The Presidential Elections in the United States have gone on since the year 1789. Having citizens vote for a president is an essential part of democracy in the U.S. and the founding fathers knew this,so they created a voting system.This system is known as the Electoral College and is still used to this day for Presidential Elections. This system has had modifications, but it still has the same basic elements as it had in the beginning. Throughout the years, the Electoral college has been proven as a very effective way of electing a president. However, there has been certain election years where there were many controversies because of it. Take the most recent election year 2016 for an example. This has been a controversial election year

Elizabeth Chang’s perspective of Obama is filled with hope and progressive movement for America, since he became the missing piece to help our country become accepting of diversity. She starts off appealing to the readers ethics, which in turn helps persuade the readers. “I knew Obama self-identifies as African American, but I was disappointed when I read that’s what he checked on his census(Chang 330).” Saying this, she lets the audience realize that Obama’s morality does not include pride. Though people believes he is only African American, he should be proud of being more than one race. By the author stating an opinionated statement, it makes the reader think about how the simplest thing can affect the world in a big way, and shows that

A Presidential Election, determines how the next four years would be. The election is a fight between different political parties, and they fight to win and represent the political beliefs and values of their followers. In the 2016 Presidential Election, there are many candidates who ran for president. There are main two main parties, the Democrat party and the Republican party, there were also many Third-party candidates. Donald Trump the primary candidate for the Republicans ran with no political experiences and won while Hillary Clinton the primary Democrat candidate who was the former sectary of state ran and lost. Not only was there a fight between the different parties, there also was fighting among each other and in individual parties. Many parties had many different views on the issues of today world. They both made many different promises on each issue.
