... Governor Bush feels that college students will succeed more easily with advanced science and mathematical knowledge. He says that he proposes a $1000 increase in individual Pell Grants to encourage high school students to take advanced college preparation courses in both subjects. Bush stated that, “There’s no reason for us to be next to last in the world in math, and there’s no reason for us to be last in physics.� Gore too believes in the importance of college, but doesn’t say math and science are the key elements to attending college. He notes that money is what keeps kids away from college. He proposes ...

... and finance. Every morning was devoted to each council. Louis XIV feared the nobles, due to the Fronde early in his childhood. He secured the noble's cooperation when he built Versailles ten miles outside Paris. Versailles was used as an elegant distraction to keep the nobility out of political life. The House of Commons was composed of middle class workers who brought the peoples ideas to the government. The Stuart kings of England believed in their divine right to rule.

... religion, sexual orientation, or gender; hate offenses are directed against members of a particular group simply because of their membership in that group (Levin 4). Last year, a black man was brutally murdered in east Texas by three young white males. There are over a hundred homicides committed every year, but the manner in which this life was taken and the apparent motive of his perpetrators leaves no doubt that this crime was one rooted in hate. In this brutal murder, the motivation is obvious and clear-cut, the bigotry so blatant that it virtually hits you in the face. James Byrd Jr.’s death is Americaâ ...

... of the relationship between the Colonies and Great Britain. Through the paper, he hopes to educate his fellow Americans about this subject. In his introduction, he says he feels that there is “a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong� which “gives it a superficial appearance of being right� (693). He is alluding to the relationship, also calling it a “violent abuse of power� (693). This choice of words is similar to those of Jefferson, who asserts that the king had established an “absolute tyranny� over the states. Both men set an immediate understanding about their feelings towards the rule ...

... preceded expansion of participation. The result is that the rules, the practices, and the culture of competitive politics developed first among a small elite, and the critical transition from non-party politics to party competition also occurred initially with the restricted group.� This statement suggests that it is the fault of the elite, which represents only a minute percentage of the populations of Argentina and Brazil, that democracy has not had the chance to develop and flourish completely. Argentina’s oligarchy revolved around the Conservative Party, and “they were convinced that only the uppe ...

... by Kirk Makir, in the March 26, 1987 edition of the Globe and Mail, titled "B.C. MPs split on Death Penalty". The death penalty deters murder by putting the fear of death into would be killers. A person is less likely to do something, if he or she thinks that harm will come to him.

... driven upper class. With the introduction of the machinery, factory owners no longer needed “skilled� craft workers for production of factory goods. The machines performed faster, better and with more reliability. At most jobs in factories required neither great strength no special skills any more. The owners thought women could do the work just as well as or better than men. In addition, they were more “docile� and “compliant�. Therefore, many women workers were hired during the progressivism era. Even though the wage was low, working hours were long and working condition was less than satisfactory, ...

... to deal with is illegal immigration. Doris Meissner, Immigration and Naturalization Service Commissioner, announced the INS would pump 185 more agents and an array of equipment, including two new helicopters, seven more infrared scopes, eight miles of fencing and 172 additional sensors to detect and deter illegal immigration traffic along a 16-mile stretch between Otay Mountain and the Tecate Port of Entry.
