Barack Obama, the President of the United States since 2009, proposed multiple bills during his speech, “State of the Union 2011”, to help improve the economy, education, job rate, and deficit (Obama). Obama Stated, “We need to out-innovate, out-educate, and out-build the rest of the world,” which was said to help encourage the audience to help improve the way we think, teach, and even learn (Obama). Throughout many years, the United States has become deeper in debt; therefore, Obama decided to help

The United States is not what it used to be. The United States was the moderator of the world. Every other country feared the U.S., but now it seems to be lacking the luster it once had. The United States of America’s success starts at one place. That is the president of the United States. The president controls and oversees all actions taken by the government. The United States needs a leader that can return this country to its former glory. Marco Rubio is that leader. What Rubio lacks in age and

Immigrant’s Life in the United States Living a good life as an immigrant in America is a big challenge. In fact, getting a reasonable life is not easy in many countries around the world, but as an immigrant in the United States that involves huge determinations. Thus, anyone who decides to move to another place or community should expect to face many challenges. Most of the time, an immigrant’s reason(s) for leaving their country is based on a hard life for some without figuring out that life in

United States' Boom of the 1920's In the USA in the 1920s there was a period of extraordinary prosperity. There was a feeling of richness and plenty - anything was possible. The 1920s was also known as "The Jazz Age", or the "Roaring '20s". Many factors contributed to this prosperity, and these factors were co-dependent, affecting each other and relying on each other. Many thought that life in this new, dynamic America had never been better - new buildings were erected

The functionality of America would not be the same without religion, it has been a monumental influence in the building of the United States. Over the course of American history, the ideas and influence of religion has played a significant role in shaping the lives of people and the culture of the nation. Throughout the 1600s, 1700s, and 1800s, groups such as the Puritans, Great Awakening preachers, and abolitionists left a lasting Christian legacy on specific peoples such as Native Americans, and

For many years there has been a discussion about the best decade and the best era in the United States of America. People are convincing each other that twenties were the Golden Age or 1990’s were the most influencing but there is no clear and nationwide agreement in that case. In fact, according to different authors and publishers there was no year that actually resolved all problems in the United States. From some people’s point of view, however, it is not a matter of which decade end all problems

On January 29, 2002, United States President George W. Bush blasted Iraq with these words, “Iraq continues to flaunt its hostility toward America and to support terror… States like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world.” [State of the Union] But as late as 1990, Iraq had received major military, economic, and intelligence support from the U.S. [Arbuthnot] This aide included “numerous items that had both military and civilian applications

settlers. After the Revolutionary War in the late 1700’s, matters only got worse for the Native Americans. Population was skyrocketing due to a great deal of immigration of white settlers in the early to mid 1800’s, and there wasn’t enough space for everyone. With this came expansion, and to reach the goals they had set out for it, the Native Americans had to go. A prime example of this is shown in Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States,” where in chapter seven he talks about the forced

black, white, male, or female, can enter any establishment, get a job, buy a piece of land, or vote in an election. However, this has not always been the case. Most of these people at one point or another had limited rights in the United States. Specifically, in the 1800’s, women had limited rights, especially after marriage. Once a woman was wed, she was no longer able to take in her own wages, sign a contract, or own any property. What were the rights that women were lacking, and where do we stand

To this date, the erstwhile colonised peoples are still calling for reparations to be paid to them, citing moral obligations of the colonisers and/or settlers, and this call is mostly being made to the white governments in Canada and the United States and to the British government in India. Let us look at three recent cases of such demands and examine how the governments in question have consistently failed to provide “adequate reparations” (as understood by the victimised populations) to the peoples
