- 41: If Impeachment of Bill Clinton
- If Impeachment of Bill Clinton If president Bill Clinton is in fact impeached it will affect the future of this country very profoundly. The main affect it will have is on future politics. Probes into political leader’s lives will be more common and ... is in my opinion astounding because in the constitution it states that “high crimes and misdemeanors” warrant impeachment not sexual blunders. The amusing thing about this controversy is that it is not about how Mr. Clinton lied in court or with held information, it is about politics. The republicans have been out to get Mr. Clinton for years now and this is their perfect chance to dominate the presidential election ...
- 42: Bill Clinton and His Many Problems
- Bill Clinton and His Many Problems William Jefferson Clinton was re-elected as president of the United States in 1996. During the last 4 years Bill has had a lot of problems e.g. Whitewater and sex-scandals. Whitewater is a summerhouse-area where Bill and especially his wife, Hillary, a couple of years ago, made some suspicious money-transactions. Right now the case against Hillary Clinton is pau¬ sed, but the judge thinks a breakthrough might come if a good friend of Hillary and Bill is proved guilty. If he is judged it will be a lot easier to get ...

- 44: Machiavelli's The Prince: Views of A Leader
- ... can see clearly Machiavelli's exceedingly pessimistic view of man: he says "that they are ungrateful, fickle, dissembling, anxious to flee in danger and covetous of gain" (Prince 60). If Machiavelli were to advise President Clinton about lying under oath, he would probably say that President Clinton is hardly unique when it comes to temptation and dishonesty.

Machiavelli states that a man "must maintain ...
- 45: Health Care Reform
- ... were at a high, Ronald Reagan took office and pronounced that the federal government needed to take a lesser role in the lives of the American people. As Theda Skocpol comments in her book Boomerang: Clinton’s Health Security Effort and the Turn Against Government in U.S. Politics, the Reagan administration instilled a dislike of centralized government in the American people. This was a major reason, according to Skocpol, why the Clinton Administration failed to nationalize “Health Security”. It was this fear of centralized government and Clinton’s failure to reform Health Care that makes a more centralized social policy unlikely in the near future. There has been a necessity in the twentieth century (due in part to the Great Depression ...
- 46: America's Right Turn

Berman contends that Clinton could not find a viable political alternative to the GOP and eventually focused on the federal deficit and economics, the legacy of Reagan and Bush. Further, the author argues Clinton continued to shift his politics away from the left and more toward middle-ground, to the point of co-opting numerous issues of the Republican agenda while still supporting popular Democratic programs, "While rhetorically ...
- 47: The Clinton Scandal
- The Clinton Scandal As an American citizen who has become tired of your sordid personal affairs and the effect it has had on the Office of the President, I want to extend my opinion and criticism of ... people like you and I would call this abuse of power to influence sexual favor from an employee nothing less than sexual harassment, but in your world it’s called a "private matter?"

Your Presidency is a joke, your five minute "admission" last night is a joke, and this whole debacle is a black spot on the canvas of American social and political life that will take years to heal.

- ... of a drug charge, even a misdemeanor. The person must not have any reported mental illnesses. In other states these laws are different but, they are very similar.

Although this is a federal bill a problem arises with states not willing to accept this bill for some reason are using the 10th amendment to ignore the Brady Bill. The 10th amendment gives the ... a increase of 100,000 police officers. This is still being decided but it certainly couldn't hurt. What does the future hold for gun control? It all depends on who we vote for. President Clinton during the past four years signed two major bills for gun control. The Brady Bill which I discussed earlier and the ban on semi- automatic weapons. Both actions were criticized by the NRA and other ... In fact the NRA's lobbying efforts are the reason it took thirteen year to pass the Brady Bill and the why the ban on semi-automatic weapons was repealed.

According to The Odyssey, written by Homer, Odysseus was gone ... wouldn’t he have been trying to figure a way out of this predicament? But, still he sat on the shore crying, supposedly wanting his wife! In addition to Odysseus’s infantile, he, like Bill Clinton, had some affairs. His first affair was with an enchantress named Circe. Circe had turned some of Odysseus’s men into wild pigs, and the only supposed way to turn them back was if Odysseus ... murders, and continuing baby-style actions have earned him a first class ticket to the bottom of the hero’s list in my book!
