Trump had, first among Republican voters in the primaries and then among American voters in the general election. National polling had the Democratic nominee, leading Trump by a significant enough percentage for the media to assume that Clinton would end up winning the election. Despite winning the popular vote, though, she failed to carry several states that had voted Democrat for more than three decades, and those electoral votes gave the ...

Entente powers, first of all the United Kingdom, desired to weaken Germany — then the most powerful state in continental Europe — permanently, especially in ...

Question 1

Since time immemorial the political arena of the United States has been pre-dominated by two major political parties, namely the Republicans and the Democrats. The two parties share almost equal political powers in the country. Usually, a democratic country is expected to have more than two parties, but America has a two part system mainly because of plurality voting. In the nation, a candidate wins the presidential elections only if they have more votes than any other participant. Therefore parties strive to be as large as they can, smoothing over disparities between voters and candidates. There is no point ...

“Et tu, Brute?” Many people recognize this pithy question as Julius Caesar’s last words upon seeing Roman senator Marcus Julius Brutus, with whom he had a relationship akin to that of a father and son, among his murderers on March 15, 44 BC.

However, there is no historical evidence these were Caesar’s last words; more likely; they were popularized by William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar in the sixteenth century. Known as the Ides of March, Caesar’s death is one of the most famous political overthrows in all of ...

In this video, Leonard Mlodinow discussed the incorrect conclusions about events that many people make because of the misunderstanding of randomness.

People’s perceptions are also influenced by expectations. Because you may expect one thing to happen, you may think it does, even ...

This is an important issue in the field of education, as educational leaders must take into consideration those matters that have a direct impact on the performance of their students. Some educators argue that academics should not be mixed with athletics because college “should be a place for cultivating the mind, not the body” (White and Billings, 348), therefore, educational institutions should not be turned into a recruitment place for individuals interested in professional sports. This is based on the premise ...

The cohesive and all-sided education policy in the U.S. and some other Western countries includes a strong focus on the ‘holistic’ development of young individuals, which means combining development of not just mind alone but also body. Therefore, athletics has been literally embedded in the academic culture in multiple levels (Sitkowski17). However, given the nature of the issue, the correlation and impact of both athletics and academics on the individual’s performance and development outcomes have been debatable. Supporters of athletics and especially intercollegiate sports typical for the U.S. education system argue that sport is extremely helpful in building ...

Almost US, but still Latin America. This is the brief definition one can give to Puerto Rico.

The range of human conditions is, indeed, limitless and can ...
