progressives, libertarians and most non-conservative democrats would allow refugees in. Well, surprisingly enough, Republican rhetoric has been quite different, emphasizing a potential national security risk from refugees. President and businessman Donald Trump said Syrian refugees could be “the greatest Trojan horse of all time,” and he urges banning them all. Jeb Bush, former Florida governor being a bit less obnoxious says, “We all have sympathies for people who have been uprooted. But we have a

What is life, who sets the rules, who tells us what is right from wrong? One important question I always ask myself, which is my place on this planet earth. A lot of time, as a female that comes from a country that values men more than they value a woman, I feel as though, I am constrained to act a certain way for the fear of being singled out as a bad seed. Even though we all feel that as humans we have the free will to do whatever we want, a lot of times culture and religion might get in our way

Immigration has been a major issue in the 21st century, especially since 2015 when then presidential-candidate Donald J. Trump spoke on building a wall. In 2015, there were an estimated 11 million illegal immigrants living in the United States (Krogstad). With an influx of immigrants everyday, no wonder it is such a critical topic. America was founded on the principles of freedom and acceptance, and many families today can trace roots back to someone who immigrated to the United States. Today, the

The Internet and social media has become a great way for people to get news, but it has also become a way for rumors, scams, and false political stories to spread. These things have all become classified as ‘fake news.’ Fake news started with the internet, and it has evolved through social media to become a real problem. People are being tricked by fake news into giving up personal information or being led to believe in false rumors about people or politics. Fake news has become such a ubiquitous

Sanders, and Donald Trump all seemed to have faithful supporters. Nevertheless, Donald Trump had the most attention with his famous phrases "make America great again" and "deport 'em all". Phrases which soon had him portrayed as a racist. Over 11 million of undocumented immigrants began to fear for their lives, here in the United States. (Park & Griggs) Along with undocumented immigrants, Muslims, people from the LGBT community, and others were attacked by presidential candidate, Donald Trump. During

Teenagers have friends every where they go, but the true colors of them are determined in difficult situations. As Maya Angelou once said, “When someone shows you who they are believe them; the first time.” People are always going to try to sugar coat their words in order to say what you might desire but that isn't truly the “first time” you meet them. High School would be the perfect place for this quote to make the most sense. Teenagers are always on the hunt for new friends and this might lead

similar; they underestimate how difficult their assignments are, lack readiness and skill needed for their task, as well as the ability to stand up for what is right so others are not affected by their decisions. In a recent interview with Reuters, Donald Trump stated: “I thought being President would be easier…”. Easier than what? According to later conversations, our President believed becoming the leader of one of the most advanced countries in the world would be significantly easier than his

Fourteen years ago my parents and I immigrated to this country. I was only three years old; therefore, I had no say on whether or not I wanted to come here. My parents were young when they made the decision to move from Mexico to the United States. They knew the sacrifice they were making by coming to this country, but they did it so I could have a better future At the age of 16, I was fortunate to be eligible to apply for DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), since I received DACA it improved

“Of course!” I yelled as I leapt over the glass and onto my bed. I had ran into my bookshelf that held my 30 pound mirror, which was now in pieces all over the floor, my bed and everything else. It wasn’t the first time I had broken a mirror so I wasn’t very surprised. It was just my luck. “How am I going to clean this up?” I ask Meaghan. I facepalm and sigh as loud as possible to show how annoyed I am, but then I realize that there is blood on my hand. I see a cut on my knee, just a scratch, no

Politicians are notorious for skilled uses of rhetoric. Donald Trump is no different. From his debate speeches, to his Inaugural address, Trump demonstrated mastery of rhetoric time and time again. With a passionate, emotional voice, Trump wrote an American-centered political address that was broadcasted to millions of Americans across the country. In order for his people to believe he would benefit the country, Trump knew he had to make an impact in their heads, and in their hearts, and he knew
