¶ … President: 1. The President's opening
The president's opening remarks functioned as a means of collectivizing his listeners, some of whom may not have voted for him or did not support particular policies or measures he has enacted. The best way of getting people who were not his supporters to listen to his address and to even consider taking him seriously was for him to emphasize the fact that he is an American just like they are. Hence, he cited a number of phrases that reflected the values which the country was founded upon, such as those existing in the Declaration of Independence and within the U.S. Constitution. Additionally, it appeared as though the president was framing his address and his own agenda as a continuation of these important historical American concepts.
The philosophy being suggested in some of the president's rhetoric in his inaugural address is that there needs to be unity and cohesion for America...
Therefore, he spent a lot of time talking about doing things "together" and referring to himself as part of the unit of Americans. This philosophy reinforces the notion that America faces a considerable amount of problems, and that the only way to get through them is to do so as a unit. This philosophy is essential in keeping the nation as a nation, for one, as well as gradually introducing the concept to political dissidents of the president that they are still needed, and that the challenge America faces is both greater than the president and his opponents .
In his quote about mistaking absolutism for principle, the value of the democratic process that the president is referring to is the notion that in a democracy, it is okay for people to voice their dissent and opinions to those that are held by the majority (which is how individuals get elected into office).

1 Theodore Roosevelt, elected as President of the United States in 1901 and 1904, was one of the most ambiguous characters in American history. His political beliefs and attitudes, both progressive and conservative, influenced and shaped many domestic and international events which took place in the early 1890's and into the opening years of the twentieth century. In the years prior to Roosevelt's presidency, two of the greatest social/political problems facing America
In this sense, White has underlined the fact that "the Social Security Administration remains solvent in large part due to deductions taken from the paychecks of illegal immigrant workers, yet Social Security will never pay benefits to those workers. The workers pay in, but they never receive back" (White, 2010). Therefore it can be said that the illegal immigration has a win-win situation. Overall it can be concluded that the
1 QUESTION 2: In rebutting the words of the historian in Question 1, an equally perceptive scholar argued, "The most damning force in America, 1900-1940, was the rise of business. Corporations produced little but hardship and despair, and gave us nothing. Indeed, this period was marked by the rise of large corporations, but it was the growth of the large corporation instead that doomed American society and destroyed democracy."

As the opening scene of "The Flea Circus" suggests, Texas's culture mirrors its landscape: a series of languishing monotony punctuated by the occasional prickle. Austin might have changed a lot since Brammer wrote the Gay Place, and in fact is one of the only places in Texas that can easily fit the title. However, Texas has changed relatively little since the 1960s. Especially in light of the ways oil
