Who: The president of the United States, Barack Obama. What: The “National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016” is a defense spending bill. It will “direct funding for procurement, research, and operation of defense technology, establish military policy, and address other matters pertaining to national defense.” However, President Obama used his veto power for only the fifth time during his term as president to veto this bill. Obama is confident, based on considerable Democratic disapproval to the defense spending, that the Congress will uphold his veto.
I couldn't verbally express at this point because depends upon factors of which we ken nothing: the genuine candidates, the condition of the economy, the state of the world. As others have noted history gives the opposition party an edge. People incline to tire of a two-term president and his party toward the cessation of his tenure. The best one can verbalize of Obama is that his record is commixed. He certainly didn't live up to all the hype of his 2008 election campaign; the exaltation that was lavished on him then makes painful reading today.
The 44th and first African American President, Barack Obama, in his Inaugural Address, promotes a call to action. Obama’s purpose is to express his gratitude for his opportunity to become president and discuss his plans for economic advancement. In order to reach the American people of the U.S., Obama adopts a serious and thought-provoking tone to urge them to support his plans for advancement. During this time of economic crisis, Obama clearly conveys to the American people through his use of metaphor, allusion, and anaphora, that it is time to take a stand and make a change in America.
First, there are several similarities and differences in former President Barack Obamas budget message. First, his budget in 2015 focused on various factors such as, the working families, middle class families, Americas youngest learners, college students, the workforce, returning hero’s (military personal), businesses owners, security threats, infectious disease, modernizing alliances, opening new markets, climate change, the management agenda, immigration reform, and affordable health insurance. The economic situation during 2015 supported his reasoning to focus on these major components. In his message, he described the current state of the economy as growing rapidly. Jobs have been created at the fastest pace since 1999, and in 58 months
A researcher looked up a quote and world book said… “Barack Obama helped the U.S. out of an economic crisis( Encyclopedia 1-1).” this proves he lives by the quote because he loves the U.S. enough to get us out of an economic crisis. This is important because he wouldn't let anything happen to the U.S. A researcher looked up a quote and ebsco said… “Obama broke with many of the Bush administration's war on terror(Encyclopedia 1-1).” I believe this means Obama is tired of terrorist attacks.
Barack Obama The Man with a Hope Barack Obama once said, “If we aren’t willing to pay a price for our values, if we aren’t willing to make sacrifices in order to realize them, then we should ask ourselves weather we truly believe in theme at all” Many people know Barack Obama as the first black U.S President but he is so much more. Barack Obama changed the world by becoming the first black U.S President, and his hardworking international efforts. He showed America that people can do anything no matter what background. He left a legacy with the power of hope, anything can change.
Barack Obama has brought jobless and high-er taxes to our country. Over 11 million Americans have left the work force and the number of Americans on welfare is at an all-time high. He has tripled our deficit and has created a health care system that is flawed in its very foundation. He has made outrageous deals and has weak-ened our image as a world power. His disapproval rating is depressing to see and painful to real-ize he was two term president.
The use of technology portrayed Obama as a man of future intentions; he wanted to impact the future of America, not the past of America. He was everything they never had; black, internet-friendly, and strategic. These qualities painted him to be a man of the future. No American viewed him as a man of the past or present, everything he offered was something that would benefit the nation in the long
We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek". From my point of view, I believe Barack Obama had set a very beneficial and superior example for his audience. Barack Obama is someone who most people look up to because of his achievements and also because of his way of thinking, his beliefs etc. He clearly made wise decisions for his country and had hoped for a change.
By the end of World War II, big changes in American race relations were already being made. In 1n the 1930s integration of labor unions were being made by the Fair Employment Practices Commission and the desegregation of the armed forces by President Truman in 1948 made the necessary steps toward racial integration. Segregation was formally established in 1896 by the courts decision on Plessy v. Ferguson was being discredited and pulled apart. The National Association of Colored Peopled repeatedly challenged , the law which states that “separate but equal” was beginning to fall apart. At the start of 1938, the Supreme Court, demolished laws where segregated facilities were proved to be unequal.
President Obama embodies everything that America means to me and everything that I love about it and in this one simple gesture, he elicits an undying loyalty and re-commitment to the truly revolutionary ideals of America that he represents: equality, justice, opportunity, evolution, freedom and democracy. Barack Obama is a potent symbol for anyone who has ever belonged to a minority race. Mr Obama is a symbol of some of the best things in America. Given his family history, he is also a symbol of what a person can achieve if he works hard and has the support of people who love him. I over love
Obamacare: If you like your president you can keep him As President Obama remains accused of broken promises, an interesting irony is developing. Every meaningful comment regarding Obamacare can be applied to Obama himself. The policy represents the heart of Obama’s beliefs.
Ex-President Obama was successful in becoming a politician celebrity, and a public figure- with his many endeavors as mentioned above. He has been largely successful in his communication effort because he used the new media, and the ‘trends’ of popular culture to connect to the younger generation, and the different groups by shaping his persona into a highly desirable presidential candidate whom was able to then connect better to the public. Because he was Harvard educated he could connect with the white, blue collars and because of his upbringing as a mixed race with an african father whom was alcoholic and left his family at a young age and a white middle class working mother whom died of cancer, and the fact that he was a scholarship student and that he was able to beat the odds and come out on top, his photogenic family, his smart sophisticated supportive wife, his chicago accent. His life story, upbringing, ethnicity, education, his persona and charisma connected him to the public; and the use of ‘social’ media and various channels of communicating to the public and the connections that were made depending on different causes that communities felt strongly about were the reasons for Barack
Barack Obama’s win for President in 2009 was a historical moment for the United States. His inaugural speech was much anticipated, because this was going to set the tone for his presidency. His speech told the American people that improving the economy is one of his priorities, but there were also other areas he would like to improve like healthcare and the education system. This was a speech that was meant to persuade the American public to take action for them to rise as a nation again, and for them to put their trust into him. His message addressed a couple of specific points like his gratefulness to the American people, the different crises America is facing, how America will overcome these crises, replying to his cynics, addressing the world, and then he reminded America again to be brave like they’ve always been to overcome the hard times (5 Speechwriting Lessons from Obama's Inaugural Speech, (n.d.).
