Presidential Prep-Time: Obama's Gotta Go Captain Planet.

During the 2008 Olympics, China's horrible environmental policies were second only to calls for Tibet's independence. Indeed, much of the world looked at China, and renounced their atrocious record for pollution.

While the United States is no China, nor an India, or another superproducing nation, going green and energy-efficient should be at the top of Obama's political agenda for the first 100 days. Whether you believe in Global Warming or not, there are too many advantages in going energy eff… Continue

Presidential Prep Essay

Since the attacks against the World Trade Centers in 2001, a lot of people have been angered in the name of safety. This includes the world abroad and the world at home. The current administration has taken very drastic steps to ensure the safety of the American people, and in doing so has severely harmed the image of the United States. The biggest challenge President-elect Barack Obama will face is how to repair the American image, because without a good image presented to the world the country… Continue

"War on Terror" (Presidential Prep)

The War on Terror—albeit not the best name—is one of the most important issues that President-Elect Barack Obama will have to face. This is an issue that has been plaguing America since the September 11 attacks, yet it is an issue that currently isn’t as important to the public compared with the economy and health care. A CNN opinion poll from December 19-21 2008 ranks terrorism the fourth most important issue to Americans, below Iraq and above illegal immigration at 6%. This does not diminish t… Continue

Presidential Prep-Time for Transparency: So Far, So Good

With recent allegations against Rod Blagoyevich still in the works, the Illinois people are beginning to become fed up. If Blagoyevich goes to jail, 4 out of the past 8 governors of Illinois will have found themselves in jail (50%). As Jon Stewart quips, considering that 48% of all murderers go to jail, you are more likely to go to jail for being the governor of Illinois than for killing someone. Illinois isn't the only place people are being frustrated by government. In fact, it's been t… Continue

Presidential Prep Essay

President- elect Obama will have to enter his Presidency with a very large problem riding on his shoulders; the economic crisis. Our nation is in the midst of what most people are referring to as another Depression, and for good reason. In 1929 the Depression was triggered by a crash in the stock market, frequently referred to as Black Tuesday. Our current economic crisis began with bad bank loans for home mortgages. Americans are pleased that gas prices are low, but to think that the reason beh… Continue

Well he successfully led us through one of the worst terrorist attacks in our history, dethroned a dictator, and lowered taxes. In my mind Nixon and Clinton were much worse presidents

I think it is a terrible way to spend mine and my children's tax dollars. Obama in his first 100 days has spent more then all 44 presidents combine
