Representative Huffman Argumentative Essay

What if your best friend went on an adventure. They had everything they had ever wanted. They didn't tell you or their family where they were going or how long they would be gone. They just picked up and left. Would you respect their decision to not tell anyone their plans? Would you think that this was a good idea of theirs, or would you think that this was a stupid decision on their part? Well this is what Christopher McCandless did. In 1968 McCandless was born. He was born to a good, wealthy, and happy family. He had everything any child could ever wish for. He was smart, athletic, and had a good education. In June 1990 he completed collage. In July of 1990 Christopher McCandless left his family and almost all belongings, and didn't tell anyone where he was going, or how long he'd be gone. Three years later McCandless was found dead in a blue bus located in Alaska. He had died of starvation. He went off and, ¨lived his life.¨ McCandless went out and lived in the wild. While Christopher McCandless died peacefully, the question has arose on whether McCandless was a noble adventurer or an arrogant fool. The evidence from many stories and social media clearly states that McCandless was in fact an arrogant fool. Christopher McCandless was an arrogant fool because he was not prepared, he

When you see yourself living out your dream, the thought of what you're most passionate about pulls you in. Passions in one's life change based on what had affected that person. Dreams are defined to change. However, the benefits of these thoughts is that they belong to you and only you. Not one person's opinions matter but your own. Chris McCandless simply was living out his own ideal life, the way he wanted; not to the idea of his parents, his friends or of society. McCandless wanted to escape society and civilization which he felt was tying him down, while also trying to discover himself. McCandless is not by any means a wacko. He was simply defying society and its ideal expectation it holds upon us as a whole.

The 1920 presidential was a significant piece of history for many reasons. The roaring 1920 election had many rising issues in concurrence.

In these very difficult times, America encounters one of the most revealing elections in United States.

The congressional behaviors of Representative Maxine Waters, a Democratic representative for the 43rd district of California, and that of Democratic Representative Darren Soto are both inspired by the goal of reelection. This common goal of reelection coined by David Mayhew is achieved differently by each representative depending on the demographics, political leaning, and incumbency of the district. When comparing the legislative behavior of Darren Soto, the representative of Florida’s newly drawn 9th congressional district, and that of Representative Maxine Waters from California’s 43rd Congressional district, this holding becomes evident. This paper will argue that while both Rep. Waters, and Rep. Soto are inspired by the common goal of

Sadiksha Shrestha Professor Sherry Sharifian GOVT-2306-71001 26 Sept. 2017 I am running for Texas State Senate from District 16 for the upcoming election. For 2014 Texas State Senate election the candidates were Don Huffines and Mike Dooling. There were no representatives from my party for the election of 2014, hence this year I have decided to represent my political party to serve the people of Texas. Mike Dooling was an amazing candidate, who is a libertarian representative, but he did not appear for the general election. Don Huffines won the general election without any opposition. The map of our district was gerrymandered to benefit some special groups. For this election, I would like to stand up against Senator Huffines to

With 2017 quickly coming to an end, the congressional and governor races are heating up. One race that is flying under the radar is the New Jersey 5th congressional district election. Democratic incumbent Josh Gottheimer is bracing up for what should be a hotly contested seat. As a New Jersey native, I have a keen sense of the type of people that Gottheimer needs to reach out to. The New Jersey 7th district, where I am from, is not much different than that of the 5th. Both are wealthy areas that tend to vote Republican. The Democratic Party has had a setback, especially with the 2016 presidential election, but Gottheimer is one bright spot that they cannot afford to lose. In order to retain his seat, which I believe he will, Josh

The 2014 Congressional race saw the struggle of Democrats and Republicans to gain power of the two institutions as per usual. On a federal and state level, the power fight was apparent, with a number of close races. One of them was in California’s rural 21st Congressional District between Republican incumbent David Valadao who had been in office since 2012 and Democrat and newcomer Amanda Rentira. The district was won by President Barack Obama by 11.1 percent in 2012 and 6 percent in 2008, so the Democrats saw hope and potential for Rentira. The 21st Congressional District is considered competitive because of its voter registration numbers. Democrats hold a 17-percentage-point registration
