Rudy Giuliani Is The Embodiment Of An American Dream?

It is amazing to know how a person’s reputation is important! It is interesting to know how many important people can easily lose their reputation. Senator Richard Nixon did something unique after being accused of stealing money from a campaign fund. This accusation was heard everywhere and General Dwight Eisenhower was about to make a decision in dropping Nixon from his choice for Vice President. Richard Nixon then delivered a thirty minute speech instead of trying to clear his name in going to interviewers and journalists; the speech Richard Nixon gave, saved his career and it also took him beyond congress. It is good to hear that his speech worked and making his speech the top sixth speeches of the 20th century. Probably Richard Nixon and his family went through hard and difficult times throughout the accusation but Richard Nixon and his family was very strong to overcome it.

The American dream is the idea that success is available to all regardless of family background or social status. It is achieved through hard work, talent, and ambition. However, in The Mice of Men, the American dream is not possible. Steinbeck shows this through the actions of Curley’s wife as she represents women of that time. Curley’s wife is a very lonely person and not very hard working. She even antagonizes the men on the ranch because she thinks she can get away with it, which shows just how weak she is. According to Steinbeck’s novel Of Mice and Men, the American dream is not possible and this is demonstrated through his use of the character Curley’s wife.

“The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position,”(Adams OL). The American Dream is a dream where a person lives a better, richer, and a fuller life, the American Dreams is not a dream where a person is after material prosperity, such as wealth, fancier cars, lavish homes. There is much more to the American Dream than property, wealth, and a perfect spouse and Jay Gatsby, a character in Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald novel, The Great Gatsby learns about the American Dream the hard way. Jay Gatsby of West Egg, New York was notoriously known for being extremely wealthy. Mr. Gatsby was also recognized by his extravagant parties with more than hundreds of guests. Jay Gatsby was not always known as Jay Gatsby, he was previously known for being James Gatz. Mr. Gatz was not a wealthy person and Gatz left his parents because they were poor and unsuccessful farmers to pursue a dream. James Gatz changed his name

John Proctor was a respected member of the town’s society because he was a farmer. Proctor did not want the town to separate and fall apart due to one lie. “Proctor was a farmer in his middle thirties. He need not have ben a partisan of any fraction in the town,but there is evidence to suggest that he had a sharp and biting war with hypocrites. He was the kind of man—powerful of body, even tempered, and not easily led who cannot refuse support to partisans without drawing their deepest resentment.”(Miller892). Farmers back in the day, were one of the most respected in the

Fiorello LaGuardia was born on December 11th 1882 to immigrants of Italian and Jewish ancestry in New York. He served as the mayor of New York City from 1945-1945. He is considered to be one of the mayors who redefined New York City politics. Fiorello had a very long career in politics before serving as mayor. After graduating New York University law school in 1910, LaGuardia practiced law and was appointed Deputy Attorney General. He also served many terms in Congress as a republican. LaGuardia lost his first try at the Mayor's race to Jimmy Walker in 1929, but was successful on his second try in 1933.

One of the things Clinton is most famous for, but not the proudest of, is his affairs. The issue of Clinton having an affair with Monica Lewinsky is purely personal. It should have been discussed within his family and in his family alone. Many people seem to forget that Presidents before him have done the exact same thing. John F Kennedy is probably the best known with his affairs. This doesn't diminish the fact that Clinton took it one step farther and lied about the affairs.

Since Proctor is kind of like heroic figure in Salem, this places Proctor in a situation where he thinks reputation is the most important principle, even wealth and family cannot compare with his

Across the planet earth, there are some 196 sovereign countries that each have their own independent ways of ruling the people of their land. Whether it be a monarch, a dictator, or a president, no one in the world beckons such a large power as the President of the United States. This man or woman is in charge of one of the most powerful countries in the world, and that person makes vital decisions daily that could change the fate of their nation they lead so graciously. Through 44 presidents, the United States has seen its share of wars, problems, fights, and scandals. Whether international, continental, or national, these 44 men have gotten through the toughest of times to lead the nation toward prosperous times and even more prosperous futures. One of these presidents, though, has caused what has come to be known as one of the biggest scandals to ever rock a presidency to its core. Richard Nixon was an adored man, but when he got caught trying to secure success for his campaign, it ended disastrously for him

John Proctor has an excellent reputation in Salem of being a loving father, husband, worker, and Christian member. He attends most of the town meetings and gives his godly input. Proctor, however, had not attended church very much over the winter before the Salem witch trials began. When confronted about this by Reverend Hale, Proctor reasons that he

John Proctor in the Crucible has a novel background what having a novel background means is that he can be of a higher social class but regardless of that he has to be someone that people look up to. John Proctor was not of high social class he was actually a farmer but he built the one church in the entire puritan community. John Proctor was respected by his neighbors even though he was not wealthy because building the one church in a society where religion is one of the most important if not the most important thing in the community and having built the place of worship for the whole community is something that the people respect him for that and being novel. Building the church was one thing that gave John Proctor

This was one of the first major setbacks Giuliani went through during his time in office. Rudy Giuliani was known for being a “great mayor, but not a great man”, which was evident in his personal life. Giuliani had a girlfriend outside of his marriage for most of his time in office. His wife, Donna, was not a well-known figure in NYC, but his girlfriend Judith created a lot of

In examining the political life of Bill Clinton, five major scandals stick out: his draft record; Gennifer Flowers and Infidelity; the Marijuana controversy; Whitewater; the Lewinsky Affair. Any one of these scandals could easily – and have on numerous occasions– ruin a political career. Yet, in each of these episodes Clinton was unusually adept at surviving and restoring his image.

While both works, Bob Roberts and “A Cool Million” can be hyperbolic, they show the ineffectiveness of the American Dream. The “documentary” shows the erroneous priorities of the political leaders running for senator, especially when it comes to image and likeability. Robert presents himself as a morally superior, relatable, country singing conservative. “A Cool Million” demonstrates the allure and trap of the American Dream. Lem manages to maintain his optimism until the point he is shot, and even after his death he is used as a martyr and also as a figurehead of the National Revolutionary Party. The American Dream is useless because the opportunity is crushed by the greed of a few individuals. There are also parallels between the movie and current events today.
