Dual Executive/President
... creating an office for a foreign affairs executive is
simply realistic. Thus, the President is not only torn between domestic and
foreign responsibilities, but s/he must find time to campaign. A dual presidency
with a domestic and foreign leader could divide these campaigning duties. In
addition, a dual presidency is better adapted to handle simultaneous crises. A
dual presidency is a modern day answer to the realities of the American
presidency.

Court Case Number 15: Bowers V. Hardwick (June 30, 1986)
... dismissed by evidence seen through rights readily identifiable in the
Constitution's text involved much more that the imposition of the Justices' own
choice of values on the States and the Federal Government, the Court sought to
identify the nature of rights for heightened judicial protection. Such landmark
court decisions as Palko v. Connecticut stated this category includes those
fundamental liberties that are “implicit in the concept of ordered liberty,”
such that “neither liberty nor justice would exist if any fundamental liberties
were sacrificed.” In Moore v. East Cleveland, fundamental liberties are ...

Brown Vs Board Of Education
... Marshall had a large role in developing and arguing the case before the Supreme Court. The reason for this was that he had to plan how he would attack the Plessy decision. If he stated something that would hurt his case or not say something that would help it he could have lost and the decision would not be have been overturned. The NAACP also played a large part in the case because they provided funding for the many cases leading up to the brown case and for the brown case itself.

Alcohol Research Paper
... or blue, two-thirds of the American population sit down at least once a week to enjoy an alcoholic beverage (Med.unc.edu). Many of these people do not realize that drinking is what leads to uncontrolled behavior, drunk driving, and in the long run, addiction.

While the lasting negative effects of alcohol use are spewed daily through the media, the pr ...

The Edutained American
... In some ways, our modern information systems are helpful. They are, after all, informative. From these systems we learn, we process the information they bring on current events, popular culture, and every other subject known to man. But the information is tainted. It is filtered through the corporate sponsors and the agendas of those who bring it to us. Therefore we bow to the opinions of those who give us our knowledge on every subject they expose us to, from the clothes we buy, to the music we listen to, the films we see, books we read, politicians we vote for, religions we believe in. Our thoughts are not our own ...

Imperialism: And The Way It Took Away Tranquillity
... wrong, the secret police will shoot you right in
the middle of the street.
No matter how we look at it, it comes down to one of the deadly
sins; greed. The European countries were greedy. Greedy for money, greedy
for natural resources, for land, and for power. And the ones left to suffer
for their frenzied race was the rest of the un-industrialized world. In
1859 Lincoln said that the Republican party believed in the man and the
dollar, but that in case of conflict it believed in the man before the
dollar. This is the proper relation which should exist between the two. Man,
the handiwork of God, comes first; mone ...
