... honorable end" to the war. He let the
Democrats, badly split over the war, tear
themselves apart, further setting himself apart by
running on a "Law and Order" campaign that blamed
America's most visible, divisive problems on the
liberal Democrats. Nixon's appeal to the
"forgotten Americans, " who felt themselves
ignored in the upheavals of the sixties, brought
him a close victory over Hubert Humphrey. Upon
election, Nixon pledged that he would bring
America together, but his margin of victo...

George W Bush Commander In Chief
599 words
As expected, Governor George W. Bush of Texas has
won the Republican Party nomination for the
presidential election in November. All along, Bush
was the predicted winner for the GOP, but Senator
John McCain of Arizona gave the Governor a run for
his money. Although Bush was able to defeat him,
John McCain was, and still is, the best candidate
for the presidency. It was said that the New
Hampshire primary is often a good indicator of who
will succeed and who will fail in the race for the

Arrested Bar Year
1,053 words
If there is anything glorious or romantic about
being a cop I certainly do not know what it is. My
experience as a law enforcement officer lasted
only a few years, but in that time I nearly burned
myself out to a level of superior cynicism. For
me, enforcing laws was like being trapped in the
chaotic middle of a sociological chamber of
horrors. Coping with such a high level of
emotional disenchantment impacted me drastically
and threatened to chisel my psyche down to a dark
mute point. The respo...

Governor Of Texas Bush Believes
430 words
Bush or Gore? Will it be the vice president or the
governor of Texas to fill the presidency? Even
after election day, this is still a very
questionable topic. Because of the peoples's post
views, it seems the country has divided itself:
half for Gore, half for Bush. Their views differ
on issues such as taxes, social security, and gun
control. First, George W. Bush believes that
federal income taxes are too high and that a tax
cut for all Americans is the best way to achieve
fiscal responsibility...

Should Government Regulate Victimless Crimes
1,576 words
Throughout history, there have been moral rules,
enforced, which have been instituted by society as
a whole due to the nature of their ethical
shortcomings. These crimes against morale have
often been called victimless, vice, or even
consensual crimes. These offenses can hardly be
considered crimes. A crime is defined as being an
offense to one who is harmed by or made to suffer
from an act, circumstance, agency, or condition

Vice Versa Real World

Once in a person's lifetime, everyone finds this
one perfect person whom they fall hopelessly in
love with and live happily ever after. That is a
mere fallacy, in the real world, this simply does
not happen. Yes, people do have common interests
and therefore develop romantic involvement, but it
is basic common sense that these relationships
have a life span and simply cannot last. Real life
relationships are definitely more like "The Real
World" rather than "Romeo and Juliet." Romanticism

ter> Character study: Malvolio: Did he deserve the
punishment that he received? The
character Malvolio (meaning literally I mean ill
will) is immediately affected by the implications
of his name. His personage is implied directly to
be one of negative and somewhat disagreeable
nature, which is continued and supported
throughout the play, leading to his downfall and
mockery which both initially seem to be thoroughly
deserved, due to his numerous defects of
personality. The first evidenc...

Vice President Al Gore Trillion Dollars

Analysis: Effective use of debates to gain voters
The Vice president Al Gore and the Governor G. W
Bush are both in a rivalry to be the President of
the United States. The conventional wisdom held
that in their first presidential debate which was
held on Oct. 4 th, Mr. Gore showed voters a warm
and fuzzy side while Mr. Bush should seize a
tough, commanding tone. But neither candidate
could resist reverting to type: Mr. Gore is the
man who loves to show off how much he knows; Mr.

In the novel, Candide, Voltaire uses many literary
writing tools to prove the points in which he
believes. Some of these many literary tools are
irony, satire, and symbolism. Through these tools,
Voltaire proves that greed is a universal vice,
and usually ends in ones own destruction. Voltaire

Twelfth Night was the festival held on the night
of the 5 th January (12 th night after Christmas),
and the night before the Epiphany, the time the
Three Wise Men visited Jesus. This gives rise to
its French name, La Nuit Des Rois. In medieval and
Tudor times, this festival was by tradition very
rowdy (it is possible that 12 th Night was derived
from the Roman festival of Saturnalia, held in
December, which was renowned for its revelry). One
of the activities was a masquerade, in which
