Essays on Democrat

Which of the two major political parties in the United States is most likely to face alignment in the coming years and why? In the USA, many voters tend to identify with one political party. It can be because of the party’s political ideologies or identifiable group factors such as ethnicity, religion, and socioeconomic classes. However, the loyalties may be changed and the voters gravitate towards the opposing party (Brooks). Party realignment occurs when a big bloc of voters who previously voted for one party does a massive shift to the rival party and remains with it for ...

1) Theories are to concepts as hypotheses are to variables. Hypotheses depend on tests that suggest multiple variables. On the other hand, theories are made up of concepts ("Theory and Practice of Social Research" 4). 2) Does a hypothesis propose a relationship between dimensions or variables? Yes. A hypothesis depends on the link that exists between two or several variables. Whereby, a slight change in variable ‘A,' leads to a change in variable ‘B.' In this case, it can be almost predictable that if the first event occurs on the first variable, then we expect variable ‘B' to ...

A Personal Opinion In the United States, local government plays a vital role in the development of counties, municipalities, and districts. These governments work below the state level and usually serve as the “middleman” between the state government and the local residents. Besides the all- purpose local governments, there may be unique purpose local governments which serve a number of purposes; such as maintaining the sewerage system across a municipality or township, overseeing public transportation, establishing districts for fire protection and engaging in other public works. In Texas District 9, the local government manages district ...

I LIKE IKE BY DWIGHT EISENHOWER

Introduction

The ‘I Like Ike’ cartoon ad that was used by Dwight Eisenhower was one of the first campaign advertisements to be done on television. The advertisement was made for Dwight’s presidential campaign in the 1952 elections. Ike was President Dwight’s nickname. The ad was very instrumental in drumming and garnering support for the former army general as it helped him become the 34th president of the United States of America. The ad was written by one Irving Berlin and was produced by Roy Disney. Initially, the animation had appeared in one ...

The political ideologies present in Texas, like most states, localities, and towns in the United States, run the full range of the political spectrum from anarchist to fascist. However, the dominate political ideologies, that is to say those political ideologies that find the most support among the state population range from social liberal and progressives, on the left, to neo-conservatives and “tea party” conservative on the right. Based on the framework of American politics, what this means, practically speaking, is that most people in Texas are either members of the Democratic or Republican Parties with a growing number of ...

Within the article, Media Bias – Is Slanted Reporting Replacing Objectivity by CQ Researcher, it is discussed as to whether media coverage is biased within the United States, particularly in the realm of political parties and their affiliates. While this argument does sound outlandish to many, if one were to grow up in one of the more liberal parts of the United States that does not follow Fox News religiously, they would see a clear pattern of news programming both on the liberal and conservative side that tends to favor United States politics rather than relevant international issues, domestic policies, ...

Creativity Fails: How To Wreck The Housing Market

On June 5, 1995, at 11:50 A.M., in the East Room at the White House, President Bill Clinton delivered his speech “Remarks on the National Homeownership Strategy”, in which he stated: “The goal of this strategy, to boost home ownership to 67.5 percent by the year 2000, would take us to an all-time high, helping as many as 8 million American families across that threshold” (Peters, G., & Woolley, J. T., 1995). To facilitate such goal, President Clinton eliminated regulatory barriers and stimulated the financial sector to find creative ways of increasing home ownership of low-income Americans (Rajan, 2010, p. ...

For this comparative research, we selected Spain and Germany, two countries of the European Union with similar political parliamentarian systems. Personification is a distinctive feature of presidentialism and it seems reasonable to examine to what extent this trend occurs in European parliamentary systems today.

The position of political leaders in parliamentary systems is different from the position occupied by them in the presidential republics. Lijphart identifies three characteristics that distinguish essentially presidentialism and parliamentarianism (Lijphart, 2000). Firstly, in a presidential system the executive chief is elected directly by the electors by popular vote and therefore without legislative intervention, so ...

Introduction

The 2016 Presidential race for the White House is occurring during a time of increased polarization between the two dominant American political parties. Republican and Democrat political candidates, as well as registered voters, are sharply divided on issues such as tax reform, public services and programs, income inequality, military spending, women’s reproductive rights, and the civil rights of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. While the common perception is that Republican candidates and voters tend to be more religious than their Democrat counterparts, the majority of polled Americans indicate that an Atheist candidate is a problem. Although ...

Introduction

There is abundant evidence that the United States government should take action on problems such as the number of handguns and automatic weapons in circulation around the country. It is important that gun owners register their weapons in order to control the problem of gun-related killings and violence. The United States has repeatedly and steadily reduced the funds for public agencies that manage gun control and that monitor gun-related laws. American policies, politicians, and pro-gun supporters approach the situation from such opposite perspectives that all discussions about gun control legislation seem to devolve into hysterical rhetoric. Many countries around ...

A political party is a grouping of individuals who come together to compete in elections and hold authority in the government. Often, political parties agree on specific policies and programs that are intended to enhancing the collective common good of their supporters. Despite the fact that there are many international commonalities in the organization of political parties, there are a lot of differences concerning the ideological cores. In modern democracies, the political parties are elected by the citizens to form a government. Many nations in the world have various party systems. For instance, China has a one-party system while ...
