How Dole Could Have Used The Issues To His
Advantage In a more or less conservative country,
the more or less conservative candidate, Bob Dole,
should have been a lock for the presidency; the
only problem was President Clinton. Clinton had
moved rightward positioning himself between Newt
Gingrichs zealous revolutionaries on the right and
liberal democratic barons on the left. Clintons
speeches started sounding like a Republican was
giving them. Bob Dole had followed the Nixon
ideology of going s...

Death Penalty Capital Punishment
912 words
The state murdering people because of their crimes
simply does not equate to justice. It is real easy
to hear about how the government is doing this
wrong or that, but the death penalty is abounded
with so many injustices and faults that it? s an
embarrassment to our entire due process of law.
Supporters of capital punishment subscribe to
religious and ethical points of view rather than
facts, and when they do offer facts it? s always
the same argument: " It? s a deterrent.

People In Power Gay And Lesbian

If our society decides to have censorship, we
compromise our freedom of speech and are left with
the chore of deciding where to draw the illusive
and unstable line between what should be censored
and what should not. When the issue of censorship
needs to be addressed question arise such as? Who
will enforce it? ? and? Who will decide what is?
right? ? ? Ironically, the people who censor
materials to protect the common people do not have
the common persons best interest in mind. It is

Themes In This Play End Of The Play Caliban
897 words
Prospero, of course, is the play. He is the exiled
duke of Milan and the father of Miranda, as well
as a powerful magician ruler of a remote island.
The play revolves around him. He has more lines
than any other character. His presence is felt
continuously, even in those scenes in which he
does not appear personally. He is the manipulator
of the action in the play. The sometimes-godlike
character is well rounded and full of
contradictions, making him a difficult character
to evaluate. In his jud...

Streetcar Named Desire One Can Understand

Tennessee Williams was once quoted as saying that
symbols are nothing but the natural speech of
dramatic purest language of plays (Adler 30). This
is clearly evident in Williams A Streetcar Named
Desire. As with any of his major characters, any
analysis of Blanche DuBois much consist of a
dissection of the plays dialogue, supplemented by
an understanding of the language of symbols in
which Williams often speaks. Before one can
understand Blanches character one must understand
the reason why she ...

Sexual Abuse Child Abuse

Michael Stiefvater Sexual Abuse At one time I
thought about how child sexual abuse was growing
concern in our society. Stories and interviews on
TV and in the paper would keep me aware, but I
always thought about how it was always happening
to everyone else. One figure that lingered around
in my mind was that one in six children would be a
victim of sexual abuse. Having six children of my
own I thought of these statistics. Knocking on
wood so to speak, until it happened in our family.

Donne Holy Sonnet
821 words
As a young poet, John Donne often utilized
metaphors of spiritual bond in many of his Songs
and Sonnets in order to explain fleshly love. Once
he renounced Catholicism and converted to the
Anglican faith (circa 1597), Donne donned a more
devotional style of verse, such as in his Holy
Sonnets (circa 1609 - 1610), finding parallels to
divine love in the carnal union. In many ways,
however, his love poems and his religious poems
are quite similar, for they both address his
personae? s deep-seated f...

Mustapha Mond Puts Fordian Society Utopian John
1,373 words
Brave New World illustrates a world where
everything that is morally right in our society,
is wrong. Monogamy is sinful, massive orgies are
not. Serious thinking is unnecessary because life
has already been planned out. Hardships and stress
can be solved with a few tablets of soma. This is
the world which John Savage and others in the
novel foolishly came to hate. All of the things
that John Savage desires are the things that make
our society unstable. Huxley uses John Savage to
