Recommended: Social media and election influence

From anywhere from marketing to politics there are winners and losses. To insure that one's a winner not a loser they need artifice. Artifice is the most important aspect on being successful. Some people think that there are other rolls at play like being “competent, sincere, or honest” on the political stage, or having the best product in sales. But these will only get you so far, clever marketing is much more important.
In the 2016 presidential election, it was going to come down to two candidates, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Clinton was spending a huge amount on advertising and was clearly the more experienced candidate. But everyone was talking about trump. Trump was saying these crazy and extremely disrespectful comments that would

  • The Celebritiy Sam Patch

    705 Words  | 2 Pages

    Elusive companies where making very obtainable money and power. This creating the three social classes we live by today, upper class, middle class, and poverty. Thus this begins to bring us into a common modern day America; where the reactions of the American people are to in some way find common ground amongst one another and give power to, celebrities, and support someone with a similar life styles and beliefs to help give that group of citizens’ a voice and the ability to possibly change to change something; this was also used in reverse where one person with power looking for more support would familiarize and make himself a celebrity with a specific group. Whether this is on the behalf of political, racial, economical, and or religious the American people would idolize someone to be their mascot so to say. This tactic can come to be brought about with the actions of the everyday working man “Sam Patch, a factory hand who, in the 1820s, became America’s first professional daredevil. Patch jumped from high places beside waterfalls. Journalists wrote about him, crowds came to see him, boys imagined being him, and… he was a mill boy who became a celebrity.”(1)

    What the majority of people think of success and fame as distinctive qualities that are only attributed to a specific group of “special people”, turned out to be inaccurate. It is as Watt considers it a common sense myth that we embrace. Therefore, the only unequivocal explanation of the outstanding outcome of thousands of nowadays trends is based on a process of social contagion of small influential or “special” group of people.

  • Why Is Artifice Important In Politics

    628 Words  | 2 Pages

    Politics can be a stressful topic all over the world for a variety of reasons. The most obvious is whether the people elected will actually fulfill their promises and show that they are being honest and trustworthy. Unfortunately, it is more likely than ever that they will deceive the people instead. Artifice can be essential in political theater as well as consumer culture so I agree with Chris Hedges’ statement. A myriad of people have used it to gain fame, money, or power, and eventually abuse it. This can lead to disastrous situations because they might not be qualified for the job. They just need to capture the audience’s attention and woo them into believing their facade. The audience looks for that story in political leaders, waiting for the promises of a better future in their country.

  • Deciphering The Misfit: A Character Analysis

    953 Words  | 2 Pages

    Lambert 1Lambert, Brandi(put course and section number)(put instructor’s name)18 September 2017A Characterization of The MisfitIn Flannery O’Connor’s short story “A Good Man Is Hard to Find,” the character of The Misfit is not easily understood. At times he is gentle, at times harsh. Some of his statements and actions show him to be wise, and some show him to be clueless and out of touch with reality. He is at times moral, and at other times completely amoral. His character is a combination of opposites. The Misfit first appears a little more than halfway through the story. His actions and words show him to be both gentle and harsh. He is gentle with the grandmother, saying “Lady, don’t you get upset” (147) when her son curses

  • Deconstructive Analysis: The Yellow Wall Paper

    1365 Words  | 3 Pages

    Deconstruction or poststructuralist is a type of literary criticism that took its roots in the 1960’s. Jacques Derrida gave birth to the theory when he set out to demonstrate that all language is associated with mental images that we produce due to previous experiences. This system of literary scrutiny interprets meaning as effects from variances between words rather than their indication to the things they represent. This philosophical theory strives to reveal subconscious inconsistencies in a composition by examining deeply beneath its apparent meaning. Derrida’s theory teaches that texts are unstable and queries about the beliefs of words to embody reality.

  • Donald Trump Informative Speech

    This created much disbelief and shock across the grid. To summarize his entire presidential campaign in one word, it would simply be “different”. It is worth noting that Trump has taken an extreme approach against what is normally expected, and that resulted in one of the most divided political stances up to date. “David Robinson, who performed a statistical analysis of the President-elect's Twitter account in August, said Mr. Trump's tendency to tweet like an "entertainer" meant he was able to garner the “interest" of the American people, which in turn boosted his chances of election success”(Independent.co.uk 1). His appeal to emotion has personally benefited himself to the point where he remained a key subject of interest throughout the entire election. Whether or not he was favored, he was the most focused on topic for widespread

  • Ronald Reagan's Use Of Propaganda

    743 Words  | 2 Pages

    Propaganda is a strategy used by many politicians running or competing for an official office to gain positive attention of the public. Although, not all types and uses of propaganda are negative for the person using them, “Stacking the Deck,” and Negative or “Attack” Ads, can be very unfavorable for the opposing candidate, meaning the majority of propaganda can be negative or postive, depending on how they are used. Things can also go very wrong in a country if the President’s actions do not match their publicity gaining advertising, for example, the 1988 presidential election. The election, between George H.W. Bush and Michael S. Dukakis, is a prime example of poorly used propaganda. The republican candidate, George Bush, claimed to do

    Hillary Clinton responded aggressively, raising her voice and jabbing her index finger at Resnick-Day. She was clearly extremely annoyed. She had become more and more frustrated with protesters and Bernie Sanders supporters. For example, when a group of protesters interrupted and shouted during her speech at the college, “If she wins, we lose,” Hillary Clinton responded "Oh, I know. Bernie people came to say that,” with a smile on her face. She then goes on bragging, comparing herself to Trump and Sanders.

  • Good To Great Essay

    1438 Words  | 3 Pages

    In Good to Great, Jim Collins discusses major key points companies have used to go from a good company to a great one. He did this by discussing seven characteristics companies should listen and absorb to transition from being good to becoming great. These characteristics included: level 5 leadership, first who…then what, confront the brutal facts, the hedgehog concept, a culture of discipline and the flywheel. Companies who can approach these successfully are the ones who enable themselves to separate from other competing companies. Furthermore, the statement Jim Collins said, which caught my attention immediately, was not in these seven characteristics, but in the first chapter of the book. He stated, “Good is the enemy of great.” This sentence consisting of six words I believed was most powerful throughout the book. Having said this, he discusses how typically companies are satisfied with just good, good is good, no one ever tries to take another step to try and become great. While this book is discussing businesses, it also applies to everyday life; am I doing everything to be great, or am I too just satisfied with good? Reflecting back on past work, school and overall experiences, it came to my attention not all the time did I try and be great, for I was content with good, good was good for me. I never took an extra stride to try and become great at what I was doing. Chapter 1, I felt to be the most influential, it truly grasped my attention and made me think to never settle for just good because someone else out there is taking extra steps to be great. Moreover, while all the characteristics have a significant meaning in the text and assist one another in transitioning companies from good to great, the Hedgehog Concept is on...

Because I want to run a company where we are moving too quickly and doing too much, not being too cautious and doing too little. If we don’t have any of these mistakes, we’re just not taking enough risk.’”

  • Definition Essay: The Price Of Success

    708 Words  | 2 Pages

    The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.” As you watch mainstream media you notice that the rich and successful are always joyful and confident. This eludes you from the hard work it takes for someone to become successful. Main stream media has falsely popularized the true definition of being successful. Many people start to believe that you’re only successful if you own an enormous house with multiple rooms that you can sleep in a new room each night, or having luxurious cars, owning expensive items, traveling anywhere you want at any given time, but in fact the true meaning of success is far from that.
