Recommended: James Dean biography

The allure and glamor of old Hollywood have captured many including myself. Given the opportunity to spend a whole year with anyone I’d pick James Dean. James Dean was born February 8th, 1931 in Marion, Indiana. He was an actor and considered a cultural icon for teenage disillusionment and social outcasts. Although he was only in three big name films, all three of them he was awarded for and he was the first actor to receive an Academy Award posthumously. James had a love for art, cars, and life and I think a year with him would be exciting, to say the least. If I spent a whole year with James Dean I’d want to ask about conspiracy theories surrounding his life (I personally believe he didn’t die in the car crash but, physically deformed

While others believe that Nixon didn’t make the right decisions; however, this should not change the way the people look at our government. The government and the people need to keep a strong trust.

    Political leaders of the United States were, at one time, thought of as crucial members of our society. Ideally, their main goal was to represent and satisfy the needs of the American people. Unfortunately, over the last fifty years, our trust in our administrative representatives has drastically declined. Beginning with the great conspiracy theory that President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in 1963 was actually planned by political leaders, America had, for the first time in history, begun to question its faith in its very own government. Consequently, the American people became extremely hesitant when it came to electing officials into office. Despite his loss to JFK in the 1960 presidential election, in 1968, Richard M. Nixon was elected as the thirty-seventh president of the United States. He was praised by many for his comeback after previously losing an election and seemed to be an admirable man. While in office, Nixon made many achievements and followed through with all of his promises made during his campaign. For the first time in what seemed like forever, the American people had finally elected a leader who seemed unquestionably trustworthy – or so they thought. Unfortunately, shortly after Nixon was elected to his second term of presidency in 1972, the Watergate Scandal changed America forever by creating a sense of mistrust toward the government for the American people because of The Nixon Administration’s actions.
