Developing Presidential Tabletop Game Summary

The President is a special position with special powers especially the US president. My initial wonder has always been why would someone run for the president of a country and what actually made someone like President Obama run for the presidency of the US. Even though none of this week’s reading focused on that. Nevertheless, there were interesting dimensions to the readings on the topic.

Many of them campaigned for Barack Obama, harnessing the power of the internet to cultivate new online communities and to disseminate the message of change that he espoused and many of the young embraced. Just before delivering his acceptance speech in Chicagos Grant Park, president-elect sent bulk email to his young-adult supporters, a fitting communiqué for this technologically advanced generation.” We just made history.” he

Then, Barack did love basketball, and he tried his best to be cool at all times. One day in the early spring both were met and begun walked the direction of the stone bench at Punahou’s campus. That place was called the senior bench. A few month were passed, Barack has gathered books from the library like Baldwin, Ellison, Hughes, Wright, etc. Barack has wrestler with words and suddenly desperate some argument and tried to reconcile the worlds as he did found it with the terms of his birth. Then, every book has given much information and Bigger Thomas has called as an invisible man. Then, Barack had kept found the same doubt like a self-contempt that neither irony nor intellect seemed able to deflect. Then, Baldwin’s love and Langston’s humors

Meet The President, written by Zadie Smith, is a story about a teenage boy, Bill Peek, living between two realities, virtual and actual. The story, set sometime in the future reflects many prevailing world issues of the time it was actually published 2013. The story provokes the reader to think about the effects on humanity of economic inequality, globalization, advancements in technology and governmental abuse of power. The reader must consider the effects of these world issues on the future while also considering them in light of the times when the story was published.

In a country founded and built upon diverse people, cultures, and beliefs, citizens of the United States of America often have varied opinions on what makes an honorable leader to guide this nation. With the 2016 presidential election well under way, both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump face the daunting task of convincing the general U.S population how under their leadership, he or she will recognize both the strengths and flaws of our country, but promise to “fight for us” and “make America great again.” In John Heilemann and Mark Halperin’s novel, Game Change, the reader gets an insider perspective of the 2008 presidential race to the White House and what makes a successful or failing campaign. As a political consultant for Donald Trump,

Another trick Obama tends to utilize in his writing becomes clear when we notice finely shaped patterns among his usage of wording. “White and black, too black or not black enough, on the streets and in the courts;” all of these statements reference two polar opposite ideals. When Obama attempts to break apart the current system of society and explain the rights and wrongs behind it, he digs to a deeper level to make

In his State of the Union Address for 2016, Barack Obama uses logical and ethical arguments to emphasize shared ground rather than partisan disputes. He also taps into the audience’s desire to feel better about themselves and their country. By using humor and irony, Obama paints his opponents into corners, out of which it would require outrageous extremism to effectively squirm away. At its best, this approach demonstrates how much Americans actually have in common in a culture dominated by ideologically polarized cable-news channels, Facebook, and cultural tribes that increasingly live and socialize apart from one another. The president's technique throughout the speech is to frame issues through a rhetorical jujitsu to persuade his opponents,

November 8, 2016. As the clock ticked from day to dust, the American population sat down to the conclusion of the forty fifth presidential election. Within moments, the fate of the nation was broadcasted into the homes and hearts of millions. For the some, the results of the election bought upon a sense of joy and excitement. However, for the other half of America’s citizens, hearing the call for Trump to presidency emitted feelings of sadness, disappointment, and above all else, confusion. How did a multi-billionaire businessman defeat a former First Lady of the United States and Secretary of State to become the president on the United States? In fact, how did a man of such little constitutional knowledge obtain the amount of political attention

President DJ Brackish stood behind his desk in the oval office staring out the window at the white house lawn. He was tired and felt old, but he refused to show it. His triumphs and personal sacrifices had become two mile-long lists that intertwined too often over his past term as president. He had done what no other president could accomplish before him. He stopped wars worldwide, ended terrorism, and helped to create an economic boom as great as the 1920’s except without the political corruption and the possibility of being long lasting. However, with his success as president came losses in his personal life. His wife had divorced him right after winning his second turn and he aged faster from the constant stress of running an entire country.

Every four to eight years Americans go through the long presidential elections process. With every presidential election comes new stories, secrets, and learning more about presidential candidates personal live than most Americans want to know. Jennifer Wiener wrote an article in the New York times called, ‘The Love Story Primary,’ saying that America’s should know everything about candidates’ personal lives. Candidates have made their personal lives America’s business. The politicians have used their spouses and children, incorporated them as part of the story they sell to American’s by putting them in their ads and brought them on debate stages. But Americans do not need to learn everything about presidential candidates and their personal lives.

It is easy to glance at the 2016 Presidential Election and paint it as a looney bin with unpredictable results, wacky campaigns, and erratic candidates. However, after studying the election closely, I have discovered quite the contrary. In fact, I would even go as far to suggest that each candidate was a master of their craft—rhetoric. Looking back, it is entertaining to see how each candidate enhances their credibility, evokes a fusillade of emotions, and presents certain calculated policies. If asked several months ago, I would have provided an entirely different answer which would have compared the election and its candidates to a circus and its intricate members. My enlightened grasp on the election was elucidated through various readings, weekly blog posts, and three term projects which allowed me to thoroughly analyze the campaigns. Although learning about the strategic ways to employ presidential rhetoric was the focal point of my class, I finished with new skills and experiences that will benefit my writing abilities. The adversity I faced because of late nights and unsatisfying grades has provided me with a sense of clarity and humility that has made me a more attentive and refined writer.

In a photograph taken early in President Obama’s first term, the most powerful man in the country bows before a solemn African-American five-year-old, the visitor’s tiny hand resting gently on the President’s head. “I want to know if my hair is just like yours,” the boy had asked. “Touch it, dude,” Obama responded. The image captures the powerful symbolism of Obama’s boundary breaking role as the first African-American president. In a country where African-Americans are more likely than their white peers to be unemployed, attend substandard public schools, go hungry and be incarcerated, the idea of a little boy seeing something of himself in

Obama established logos as she mentions how a six-year-old has more understanding,“So even a six-year-old knows better. A six-year-old knows that this is not how adults behave. This is not how decent human beings behave. And this is certainly not how someone who wants to be President of the United States behaves.”. Not only did she appeal to the logic of those who want to vote for the more logical, qualified candidate but she used parallelism to emphasize the age and the point. Additionally, when Obama emphasis “It has shaken me to my core in a way that I couldn't have predicted.” This use of hyperbole shows the magnitude of impact on Obama due to the controversy on Trump's sexual assault towards women, attributing to the audience a share of

Today most of our presidents are people who know nothing about the History of our county or if they do they choose to ignore it and instead make their decisions to usually their own gain but that needs to change. The candidate is a teacher, the goal is set as the office. Now all that’s needed is the best means to get there. For this candidate, Christina Maciel, a middle school teacher in Irvine,CA, the best propaganda strategies are , stacking the deck, and plain folk.

"You don 't get the chance to make America great by getting rid of everything that made America great,” Stated by Hillary Clinton during her campaign rally in St. Louis, Missouri to attack candidate Donald Trump from his previous diverse rhetoric. Political Rhetoric has been very popular in today’s society. Politics use this as a platform to criticize other candidates about important points that are essential to the United States and its citizens. Not only does others believe that political rhetoric is out of control but it is a negative form of art. During election time, the media and the internet are critical for candidates because it gives them easy access to the younger audience. Although social media is enormous in today’s society, this is the best way for young voters to make their voices heard. Scott Keeter a research analyst and exit poll analyst for NBS News stated that “Young voters have given the Democratic Party a majority of their votes, and for all three cycles they have been the party’s most supportive age group” (Keeter, 1). According to U.S. Census Bureau over the course of time the rate of younger voters “Dropped from 50.9% percent in 1964 to 38.0 percent in 2012” (U.S. Census Bureau, 2).However, the media continue to evolve with modern society. I believe that rhetoric such as visual political rhetoric helps the youth to get more involved with the political arguments while being educated and entertained at the same time.
