.... Environmentalist fear that pollution will spread across the continent. Farmers fear that produce grown in Mexico will be contaminated from pesticides banned in the United States. These are but a few of the arguments for and against NAFTA. What does NAFTA mean A Free Trade Area is, by definition, an area where all barriers to trade are lifted. This is not the case with regards to NAFTA at this point. Currently most of the trade barriers between the United States and Canada are lifted but those with Mexico have largely been kept in place. This is an obvious disparity on the part of the Mexican government but is due largely .....

.... is part of the checks and balances of our government. The power of impeachment allows congress to remove the president out of office. In this particular case if Bill Clinton is convicted, he is thrown out of office, and Vice President Al Gore replaces him as President. The U.S. constitution explains impeachment as the removal from office for , and conviction of treason , or bribery , or other high crimes and misdemeanors (Gerberg ,28 ). Impeachment protects the citizens of the nations from a chief executive that is involved in criminal activities . A committee in the House of Representatives brings forth allegations .....

.... gasoline prices were expected to soar to a national average of as much as $1.80 a gallon and likely reach $2 a gallon in some places by July. So what’s changed between now and then? A key international oil meeting in Vienna, Austria. The EIA in its latest forecast assumed additional oil would begin hitting the U.S. market by June as a result of a decision March 28 by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. OPEC agreed to boost production by as much as 1.7 million barrels a day. Other non-OPEC producers also have said they would increase production. And production increases mean refilled petroleum stocks and low .....

.... in the concept of a plural executive. Back in the time of the writing of the Constitution, some anti-federalists wanted a weak executive. This weak executive was called a plural executive or an executive council. (Storing 49) The purpose of such a plural executive was not only to weaken the executive, but also to prevent a monarchy from ruling. In fact, an anti-federalist named Randolph opposed an executive-of-one so much that he believed it to be the “foetus (fetus) of the monarchy.”(Storing 93) Yet today the threat of monarchy is laughable. The proposed dual executive has no intentions of weakening that branch. Rathe .....

.... religious freedom. This tradition was clear even in the early colonies, like Plymouth, which was formed by Puritan dissenters from England seeking religious freedom. Roger Williams, the proprietor of Rhode Island, probably made an even larger contribution to this tradition by advocating and allowing complete religious freedom. William Penn also contributed to this idea in Pennsylvania, where the Quakers were tolerant of other denominations. In addition to the tradition of religious tolerance in the colonies, there was a tradition of self-government and popular involvement in government. Nearly every colony had a governmen .....

.... This allows the advertisers to continue their scam and trick even more people with their dishonesty. People have to try to figure out if advertising is legitimate and plausible. For example, shopping via Internet, consumers usually disappointment and being cheated when they receive the goods by Mail. 2. One of them is the appeal to an authority. This is clearly seen when companies use celebrities to sell their products, such as Michael Jordan selling phone services. The underlying message here is that people who use this service or buy this product will be living the high life of a celebrity, but usually these famous peopl .....

.... yield to the government of Georgia. This was an attack on State's rights and Jackson quickly reacted. Jackson made a statement saying that Georgia could take the Cherokee land and that the Cherokee's would have to move to the west. The Trail of Tears followed, during which many Cherokee died, not even reaching their undesirable destination. Jackson said something to the effect of "John Marshall has made his judgement, now let him enforce it," but there was no way Marshall could enforce it, because the only individual with the power to enforce legislation was the Head Executive, (Andrew Jackson). This left Marshall powerless .....

.... to be any competition from Republicans in these non competitive states (Mulcahy p.56). A poll taken in the 1960's showed that " the southern states were the obvious stronghold of Democratic identification. The extreme case was Louisiana, where 66% identified with the Democratic party"(Black p.44). This all began to change as the Democratic party became more liberal in its national policy views. The Democrats became too liberal in their policies concerning civil rights for the white Southerners to continue voting for them. (Mulcahy p.40). This reason along with others is what drove the Southern whites to change there voting habit .....

.... wrestler and football player, those words inspired me to always to obtain my goals no matter the obstacles standing in my way. I believe a person that quits a sport or drops a difficult class in high school will do the same when a difficult task is in front of him in the real world. My father has guided me to be myself and not to live my life as a follower, but to be a leader. As a senior football captain, my leadership must be great. Many young teammates look up to me as a student and athlete. For me to provide poor leadership would be a disappointment to them and to myself. Encouraging others to be better makes one also wan .....

.... so ingrained that eventually most members drifted or were driven, away. Some continued the struggle on other fronts and some basically cooled out altogether. The BPP limped on for several more years, then died what seemed a natural death. History will be the ultimate judge of the BPP's place in the Black Liberation Movement (BLM). But in these troubled times African people in the U.S. need to investigate both the positive and negative aspects of the BPP's history in order to learn from those hard lessons already paid for in blood. In particular we need to learn the reasons for the BPP's rapid rise to prominence, the reason fo .....
