Former Texas Governor Rick Perry has dropped out of the race to be US president. He dropped out because his campaign was struggling in the polls and he failed to make the cut into the main Republican presidential debate. He dropped out last month. Perry also ran in 2012 but dropped out after a series of gaffes. Rick Perry certainly possessed a resume to be a top-tier contender for the Republican nomination.However, he has been quickly eclipsed in the polls by political outsiders like Mr.Trump and former neurosurgeon Ben Carson. Just 4 years ago, in his first bid, Perry had a widespread support and seemed a real threat to Romney. I think what Perry did was actually smart, because if you know you're running behind in the polls then you should
Throughout the 171 years of Texas’ statehood, it has ran under a numerous amount of Constitutions (Braden 1). The Texas constitution is among the longest of state constitutions in the United States. The constitution had been amended 483 times since its adoption in 1876 (Braden 1). Amending the constitution is a lengthy process and even led to efforts of a constitutional reform during the 1970’s, which in the end had failed.
On March 15, Marco Rubio was embarrassingly destroyed in his home state’s Presidential Primary against Donald Trump, 46%-27%. After that, he decided to drop out of the race, and has still yet to actually endorse Mr. Trump. With Rep. David Jolly and Lt. Gov. Carlos Lopez-Cantera floundering in the campaign, the Republican Party started pushing Marco Rubio to reverse his decision and run re-election because he would be a much better candidate.
No, Governor Quinby was not correct when he stated that Lieutenant Governor Smithers did not have the power to assign the abortion bill to the Health and Safety Committee. The Lt. Gov. has the complete authority in deciding which bill is assigned to which committee because he is the President of the Senate. In the text it says that “by not accepting his committee recommendation he was abdicating his LT. Gov. responsibilities,” however, that is not true because his responsibility as the president of the senate is to assign bills to the committee who he sees best fit. It also states that the LT. Gov. thought that the bill imposed the Governor’s religious beliefs on the people of Texas therefore he thought that the bill was not something he wanted to pass. He assigned it to the Health and Safety committee so that the bill would not pass and that is okay because he has the power to do so.
Texas senator, Ted Cruz, won Iowa’s caucus vote for the Republican’s presidential race. Ted Cruz is in strong opposition in what Obama has done and has rallied voters who agree with him. His campaign promises to defend against terrorism and repeal Obama’s healthcare program. Many other candidates found it difficult to get a caucus vote and have decided to drop out of the presidential race. Former Arkansas governor, Mike Huckabee, dropped out of the race. Many of the other governors barely got support according to the recent Iowa
Chris Christie just endorsed the Donald. Even after Christie is on camera saying he doesn't want an entertainer as a president and also they evidently ran against each other. John Harwood which seems to be a Federalist said the reason for the recent endorsement is “The both really like the spotlight.” They say that they also have the same view on Hillary Clinton and Christie thinks Trump has the best plans to beat her. The next topic of discussion was Trump and the other two Candidates Rubio and Cruz. Rubio and Cruz during the last debate kept throwing punches at Trump. Susan Davis a Congressional Reporter for NPR which is leading to the left side of the room says “This needed to be happening five to six months ago.” The majority of the speakers
Perry is a conservative and has many conservative views. I believe in the same things that he does. I think that Rick Perry would make a good president. He has worked hard to get where he is today and that is good to have in a leader. While serving in Texas, Perry was a good leader and I believe he would be a good leader of this country. We need a president that is hard working. This country needs a president that has a good political background, and very intelligent. Rick Perry is a prime example of a good politician. I think that Rick Perry would be a good candidate for president in 2016. I would definitely vote for Perry. He has made many jobs, cut taxes, and helped with immigration. He has made a huge difference while being governor of Texas, and he could make a huge difference as president of the United
European immigrants were sometimes pushed out of their homelands, and other times, came in hope for a better life. The German immigrants, the largest group of European immigrants to come to Texas, came for affordable, fertile land, but they were also forced out of the overpopulated Germany that had become overrun by industry. The Irish came simply for economic opportunities, and because an Irishman by the name of William Kennedy wrote a book encouraging (Texas: The Rise, Progress, and Prospects of the Republic of Texas) immigration to the prosperous Texas. France was also encouraged by a piece of writing- The Republic of Texas’ Treaty with The Kingdom of France, signed in 1840. This treaty communicated the amity between the two countries,
First, I will begin by discussing the major and third parties of the Georgia Senate. David Purdue is a republican member to the U.S. Senate from Georgia. Perdue was born in Macon, Georgia and was raised in Warner Robins, where he grew up working in his family farm. Coming from a family of school teachers, Perdue learned the importance of hard work and valued a good education at an early age. Perdue attended Georgia Tech and earned a degree in industrial engineering. Some people asked “Why should I vote for David Perdue?” One of his major concerns was for a nation’s national debt, which is around 17 trillion dollars and is continuing to grow more and more each day. The federal debt is now higher than our entire GDP (Gross Domestic Product.) Perdue’s

The government and the Catholic Church have not always had a great correspondence. Out of the many parties that have been created for the government, through time, the Democrats and the Republicans have taken precedence. The Democrats lean more to the liberal side of things, while the Republicans lean more towards the conservative side. The Democrat party is the oldest existing party, and called the ‘party of the people.’ The Republican Party came into the existence just before the Civil War, mostly because of their stance for the abolition of slavery and their candidate’s win, Abraham Lincoln. Both parties have their pros and cons, and both parties have their problems with the Catholic Church.
The Top 5 Reasons Why He is the Best Candidate to take on the Democrats.
“The 2nd truism that we must understand is that our poverty does not create our social problems, our social problems create our poverty,” stated Republican party candidate, Marco Rubio. He was the senator of Florida. Rubio is 44 years old. He has been interested in politics and volunteer work since he was a juvenile. U.S. citizens should vote for Marco Rubio because he is against gay marriage, he is against abortion, and is for legal immigration.
The birds flutter their wings and soar from tree to tree. A shallow pond gives life to the fish, turtles, and frogs within it. The woods beyond my house are my refuge. Everything is still and calm, bringing me a sense of peace and tranquility. In the summer, the woods are lush and plentiful. Vibrant colors catch my eyes in every direction. The scene is so glorious and soothing, that it overwhelms me. To me, even though the sunset is splendorous, watching the sunset makes me depressed because it means that the day is ending. Lily says in the book The Secret Life of Bees, “Sunset is the saddest light there is.” The smell of flowers and grass brings a fresh scent to my nose. Nothing in the world can compare to the aroma released by the delicate daffodils among the green floor.
