Recommended: Relations of US&Russia after post war

Approval Rating Zogby: B+ Rasmussen: 49% Approve, 50% Disapprove. 27% Strongly approve, 39% Strongly Disapprove. Gallup: 46% Approve, 50% Disapprove. Based on the three polling outlets, more people disapprove of President Obama’s actions as the leader of the United States. Furthermore, in analyzing more previous polls produced by Gallup, it is evident that the trend has been in the direction of more disapproval among the American people. This occurrence is likely due to the President’s implementation of stricter gun regulation, and also the Affordable Care Act. However, Zogby gave the President a relatively high job performance rating due to a recent spike in job creation. ISIS Zogby: C Rasmussen: 49% want formal declaration of war, 51% do not. Gallup: 53% oppose use of ground forces, 43% support. …show more content…

Considering Gallup’s finding and recent events, it is clear that Americans understand and realize the threat of terrorist group, however, likely to war weariness produced by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, they are not willing to send their own soldiers into battle. Furthermore, the majority do not want to formally declare war, this may be another product of war weariness, or it could also be an attempt to ensure that Islamic State is not recognized as a sovereign state. However, Zogby rates the response to the rise and danger of the organization as a C due to the lack of strategy other than air

  • Irrational Terrorism Essay

    646 Words  | 2 Pages

    In today’s society the word “terrorism” has gone global. We see this term on television, in magazines and even from other people speaking of it. In their essay “Controlling Irrational Fears After 9/11”, published in 2002, Clark R. Chapman and Alan W. Harris argue that the reaction of the American officials, people and the media after the attacks of 9/11 was completely irrational due to the simple fact of fear. Chapman and Harris jump right into dismembering the irrational argument, often experienced with relationships and our personal analysis. They express how this argument came about from the terrorist being able to succeed in “achieving one major goal, which was spreading fear” among the American people (Chapman & Harris, para.1). The supporters of the irrational reaction argument state that because “Americans unwittingly cooperated with the terrorist in achieving the major goal”, the result was a widespread of disrupted lives of the Americans and if this reaction had been more rational then there would have been “less disruption in the lives of our citizens” (Chapman & Harris, para. 1).

  • Z For Zachariah Character Analysis

    403 Words  | 1 Pages

    In class we read the book Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O’Brien. I chose Ann Burden as my character because she portrays different personalities throughout the book. At the beginning of Z for Zachariah, Ann was generous and kindhearted, but at the end of the book, you saw her tough and courageous side. The three adjectives I chose to describe Ann were clever, courageous, and generous. I think these three adjectives accurately describe Ann Burden throughout the book. Generous describes her at the beginning of the book when she welcomes Mr. Loomis into the valley and generously takes care of him. Clever describes Ann in the middle of the book when Ann is hiding from Mr. Loomis and plotting to steal the suit to leave the valley. Courageous describes

  • Does the Public Have Unrealistic Expectations for the Presidency?

    1493 Words  | 3 Pages

    The president has a significant amount of power; however, this power is not unlimited, as it is kept in check by both the judicial and legislative branches. The president is held responsible for passing legislation that will improve the lives of everyday Americans, even though he shares his legislative powers with Congress. The sharing of power acts as an impediment to the president’s ability to pass legislation quickly and in the form it was originally conceived. However, Americans do not take this into account when judging a president, as they fully expect him to fulfill all of the promises he makes during his campaign. By making promises to pass monumental legislation once elected without mentioning that Congress stands as an obstacle that must be hurdled first, the president creates unrealistic expectations of what he can fulfill during his time in office (Jenkins-Smith, Silva, and Waterman, 2005). A president is expected to have the characteristics that will allow him to efficiently and effectively lead the nation and to accomplish the goals he set during his campaign (Jenkins-Smith et al., 2005). There have been a handful of presidents that have been immortalized as the ideal person to lead the United States and if a president does not live up to these lofty expectations the American public will inevitably be disappointed. Since every president is expected to accomplish great things during his presidency, he is forced to created and project a favorable image through unrealistic promises. The combination of preconceived ideas of the perfect president and the various promises made by presidential candidates during their campaign create unrealistic expectations of the president by the American public.

  • Presidential Power

    450 Words  | 1 Pages

    Richard E. Neustadt, the author of Presidential Power, addresses the politics of leadership and how the citizens of the United States rate the performance of the president's term. We measure his leadership by saying that he is either "weak or "strong" and Neustadt argues that we have the right to do so, because his office has become the focal point of politics and policy in our political system. Neustadt brings to light three main points: how we measure the president, his strategy of presidential influence, and how to study them both. Today we deal with the President himself and his influence on government action. The president now includes about 2000 men and women, the president is only one of them, but his performance can not be measured without focusing on himself.

  • Scars Left from the War in Afghanistan

    662 Words  | 2 Pages

    Here in America there is little tangible evidence of the war in Afghanistan, no visible scars besides the ones involving processions of caskets coming from Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. The mentality though remains. People are tired of this war; they have lost the patriotic spirit that had been created after 9/11. With the war reaching a decade people are losing hope and faith in the government. They are losing the desire to continue in their support for the war. People have taken negative viewings to Muslims as well because of this war and have become very aggressive over those coming from the Middle East and of Islamic origins even if they have been citizens of the United States before 9/11. “We kid ourselves if we think we can be a people at war for a decade without suffering consequences” states James Carron (Hampson).

  • Success: Presidential Success, Success Or Influence?

    714 Words  | 2 Pages

    Understanding and evaluating presidents’ performance often poses challenges for political experts. The nation votes one president at the time and each presidency faces different tests. The environments surrounding a presidency have a tremendous impact on the success and failure of that presidency. In addition, the president exercises his power through a check and balance system embody in the Constitution. As stated in (Collier 1959), the Constitution created a government of “separated institutions sharing power.” As a result, a president works with others institutions of the government to shape the nation’s agenda. Thus, determining a presidential performance becomes difficult, especially when it comes to comparing the performance among presidencies.

  • Zeitoun Analysis

    1579 Words  | 4 Pages

    In the years after 9/11, sentiment toward American Muslims has become hostile. In 2002, violence against Muslims in the United States went up an astonishing 1600 percent (Lean 3). Statistics give a good idea of the overall effect of 9/11 on Muslim violence, but narratives can provide a much more personal and compelling account. Zeitoun by Dave Eggers present a frightening (yet real) story of dramatic injustice against a Muslim Syrian American during Hurricane Katrina. Zeitoun, the main character, is profiled, embarrassed, and jailed unjustly. In the text, we see that islamophobia manifests itself in the form of violence and discrimination. Kathy, Zeitoun’s wife, even says in Zeitoun that “any trip to the grocery store or mall presented the

  • 20th Century Research Paper

    Barack Obama, who campaigned in 2008 on a platform of extricating America from its unpopular and exhausting wars, has drawn criticism for disengaging too much. Under both presidents - the first an impulsive unilateralist, the second an instinctive multilateralist content sometimes to lead from behind - America's global standing has been diminished. Polls regularly show that Americans recognize that their country's international standing has waned. Among the young, this trend line has fallen sharply. Only 15% of 18-29-year-olds believe that America is the "greatest country in the world", according to Pew, down from 27% in 2011. Tellingly, however, there has been no great public outcry. No longer is there much appetite for America playing its long-standing role of global policeman, even in the face of the rise of the group calling itself Islamic State. The cost, human and financial, is considered too great. Americans increasingly think that other countries should share the

  • Reluctant Fundamentalist: The Role Of Capitalism In The United States

    1136 Words  | 3 Pages

    The unprecedented terrorist attacks at the key economic, political, and military power centers in the United States on September 11, 2001 led to immediate restrictive measures among states in the global north and the international community as a whole. The perceived unprecedented threat of international terrorism had to be confronted with nothing less than a global “war on terrorism”. As a nation, Americans were born fighting; therefore, Americans will stop at nothing to protect their rights in the nation. Citizens who condone this type of patriotism – those who condone violence inflicted upon other nations other than their own show that they are complicit with a terrorist regime. The Reluctant Fundamentalist, written by Mohsin Hamid, resonates
