.... he or she is in the lead. The results are needed within hours. After getting the results from the polls, it is then time to determine what action needs to be taken to aid your campaign (or more often hurt your opponent). The candidate then needs to create new television ads to make himself or herself appeal to the interests of the people or sometimes to counteract the bad things the opponent has to say. This fight between the television ads is often referred to as Spot Wars. While the Spot Wars help out the candidates (or harm the opponents with derogatory remarks), they can cost an enormous amount of money; and after being played on television the opponent will return ....

.... Many cases in the history of the supreme court have led to a significant change in the interpretation of rights in the united states. One important case involving the freedom of religion was Reynolds v. United States in 1879. Reynolds, a Mormon living in Utah had two wives. Polygamy was allowed in the teachings of the church, but prohibited by a federal lab banning the practice in the United States. Reynolds when convicted argued that the federal law violated his constitutional right to the free exercise of his religious beliefs. The Supreme Court did not agree with Reynolds claiming that congress was not without the power to punish violations of social duties o ....

.... within the telecomm act of 96 is just another step along the road to complete police state takeover. We are being treated like recalcitrant teenagers by those that think they know what is best for us, regardless of our feelings. Generally, it is later discovered that the proponents of these kinds of controlling maneuvers had something personal to gain. Be it power, control, money, sex or property. Those that wrote this bill, pushed for it, bargained away our rights in order to trade favors for something of their own, should be scrutinized closely, in every aspect of their own lives. If we continue to demonstrate, to march, to speak out, to make our voices and ....

.... with an IQ estimated at 65. When newspapers reported this several years later, one juror told the press she would not have voted for the death penalty had she known of his retardation. The accomplice to this crime was given a life sentence. II. Everyone has their own opinion of the Death Penalty. The problem is, most United States citizens do not have the facts. As long as the death penalty is a form of punishment, we all should be aware of this information…the correct information, and not just what crime the “Dead Man Walking” committed. III. Myself, Chandra, Steve, and Geoff have done extensive research on the subject of corporal punishment and will discuss those ....

.... on the problems facing governments in controlling public expenditure, I will look at the post 1979 conservative government as it in particular targeted controlling expenditure upon taking office. Under the societal system approach one reason why a growth in public spending can be seen to have occurred is due to Wagner's ‘law of increasing state activity.' Wagner's claim is that as per capita real income increases in particular nations, they will spend a higher proportion of national product through government. As Wagner's reasons for increased public expenditure tend to be centralised around industrialisation and its associated effects it is not surprising to find t ....

.... alone, decrease partisanship, and increase American involvement in politics. Often times, when a Presidential candidate is considered "weak" in an area (foreign policy, education, the environment, etc.) He nominates a running mate who is strong n the same issue. While most people believe that this will help make for a stronger Presidency, it really accomplishes very little. The presidential candidate's views haven't changed. All that is changed is how the people perceive the candidate's views. However, if a candidate must run alone, there will be a much clearer idea of where exactly each candidate stands on various issues. Secondly, by choosing the Vice President throu ....

.... some fourth world country is known to eat these animals does not mean that we should hop on this band wagon. This animal is not a delicacy in this or any other country. The people in these countries eat these animals because of economic slums and or food shortage. When these conditions are present horse is not the only animal these people resort to for sustenance they also eat dog and other animals that are uncommonly consumed in the United States. Our country should not stoop to the slaughtering horses for human consumption for sale and/ or export to foreign countries. Horses can also be bought without any history of the horse or its owner so there is no way to tell if the a ....

.... The woman urged her husband to take the children away, but to no avail. A truck full of stones was brought in to be used during the stoning. In the middle of the stoning, although her eyes had been gouged out, the victim was able to escape from the ditch and started running away, but the regime's guards recaptured her and shot her to death." From China comes the following observation. "Still in the streets an occasional old crone hobbling around on her miniature bound feet was a relic of the pre-Revolutionary, almost dead past. I also heard an echo of that past in a silk thread factory in Wuxi, China. A woman member of its Revolutionary Committee was introduced to m ....
