Democratic Elections -- Protection Against Tyranny
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page
report discusses how in the earliest days of the fledgling United
States, the leaders of the country were clear on their intention
to assure that the government they formed would be one with
safeguards against the forms of tyranny they had known in their
native England. The rules established by the Constitution were
designed to carry out the principles of limited government and
individual freedom that continue to be valued today. But
regardless of how such ideals are still valued, the fact remains
that modern Americans’ high rate of re-election of their
representatives to Congress may suggest that the citizens of the
nation are not exercising full democratic control over the House
of Representatives and the Senate. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Discrimination in Historic Immigration and Naturalization
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page analysis of historic immigration and naturalization laws which were designed to ensure a white majority in the United States. The author of this paper contends that the shortcomings in our current laws and policies are, in reality, just a continuation of the same bias and discrimination which have been in place for generations. The 1790 immigration law was the first of the legal biases which were put in place to ensure a continued white majority in this country. This law was reaffirmed throughout our history with such cases as Ozawa vs. U.S. Supreme Court and Thind vs. U.S, Supreme Court which reaffirmed that only select races and cultures were allowed to become U.S, citizens.

Edward Gibbons: Man's Historical Achievements Are A Farce
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. "History is little more than a register of crimes, follies and misfortunes of man" This famous quote from Edward Gibbons provides meaningful insight to what humanity's historical significance truly represents. When taken in its realistic context, one can readily support the validity of such a claim, inasmuch as the history books are chock full of war, strife, bungled peace efforts, political embarrassments, along with a whole host of other less-than-attractive accomplishments. That Gibbons sought to bring to light the reality of mankind's historical legacy concurs with his ability to see beyond the facade of dubious achievements. The writer compares this quote with real-life events. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
