I Solemnly Swear, shows a new way of reforming leadership in politics and in keeping with the solemn vow taken on oath when entering public office. The need for political reform is a necessary first step to maintaining democracy in our government system. With a new way of thinking and doing business, reform politicians can become leaders that wouldn't compromise their ethics, not even under the prestige of power and politics. Instead, achievement can come out through hard work, commitment, and perseverance as an emerging theme for the United States. Developing reform politicians may seem like unlikely candidates, but sometimes even the most unlikely become some of our greatest leaders.

We, as a country, elect our presidents and vice presidents every four years. Our first election was held in New York in April of 1789. History books explain that event to its fullest. This article explores the methods, the voting structure, the rules, and some of the unusual elections we have had in the last 100 years. Its theme is the Electoral College, the electoral vote, and the popular vote. The major question is why, out of 24 elections, have there been 18 of which the western half of the country's votes counted for nothing? . . .The subject material about to be presented is complex and very confusing to grasp and understand. The material is not new, and I can only conclude that anyone that has studied American history in high school is vaguely familiar with the subject. It came into use in 1789 and has been used until today. It is the Electoral College, and it is embedded in the writing of the Constitution. The timeline for this dissertation will cover the years from 1787 to 2022. The reason this topic is important to study is because of the events that came out of the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections.

We're accustomed to seeing humour as a diversion from the serious side of life, but humour also permeates some of the most troubling political developments in recent years. From the resurgence of white nationalism to the erosion of democratic norms, jokes force-feed us objectionable ideologies while we gasp and splutter at all the side-splitting shenanigans. This book explores the relationship between humour and offensiveness in contemporary society. Drawing on examples from philosophical thinkers and popular culture, it invites readers to consider the dark side of humour. Weaving together cultural analysis, political discussion and philosophical reflection, the book provides an antidote to positive thinking about laughter and a roadmap for navigating different types of offensive humour.

Incumbents enjoy many advantages when they seek reelection, but their distinct disadvantages (such as not fulfilling promises or staying within the status quo) are ripe weaknesses for opposing candidates to knock them down. Studying the US's Barack Obama, Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky, and France's Emmanuel Macron, among many other candidates, political strategist Louis Perron, PhD, describes tactics to assess the strength of the incumbent, the quality of the challenger, and how to control and win a campaign. Readers interested in running for office or in assisting a political campaign will learn how to build a top-notch team, define your target audience, increase your media presence, develop your message, advertise effectively, deliver great speeches, and prepare to win debates. For relatively new challengers, Perron demonstrates how lack of experience has become less important and how these weaknesses can be neutralized. When campaigns turn ugly and play dirty, he instructs candidates how to combat against character attacks and how they can make a comeback if they lose the election. With over a decade of experience orchestrating political campaigns around the globe, Perron's Beat the Incumbent is the essential step-by-step guide for any level of political office to challenge an incumbent and, once victory is claimed, how you can avoid the same traps to effect change and win reelection.

Democracy is on the run, and elected governments are suffering from a legitimacy crisis. Legislatures are increasingly seen as unrepresentative. To give legitimacy to democratic government, experts argue that we need more democracy and more opportunities for direct citizen participation. Representative democracy needs to be complemented by forms of direct engagement, such as referendums, popular votes, the recall, citizens' juries, eDemocracy, etc. This is what we term Complementary Democracy. In this book experts from the worlds of practice and theory come together to explain - and occasionally critique - these complements to representative democracy. The volume provides an invaluable starting point for anyone who wants to know more about the new directions of democratic governance, and hopes to inspire those who seek to build stronger democracies.

The question Americans asked in 1844 was, "Who the hell is James K. Polk?"Polk, of course, was not unknown, but was a highly unlikely presidential candidate given the availability of better-known options. Among the Democrats, this included Martin Van Buren, John C. Calhoun, and James Buchanan. Among the Whigs, Henry Clay was the clear frontrunner. Complicating the election were three other candidates: President John Tyler, a man without a party; Joseph Smith, the self-described prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the first presidential candidate to be assassinated; and James G. Birney, head of the antislavery Liberty ticket. On top of this remarkable cast of characters, the stakes of the election were high as the United States was undergoing a tumultuous political transition.James K. Polk's ascension to the White House over more notable politicians was a pivotal moment in propelling the United States towards civil war, and the 1844 election expanded the vigorous campaigning that had been growing since 1824. In Who is James K. Polk?, Mark R. Cheathem examines the transition from traditional political issues, such as banking and tariffs, to newer ones, like immigration and slavery. The book also captures the Whig and Democratic parties at a mature stage of competition and provides detailed descriptions of campaign tactics used by the candidates, including rallies, music, and political cartoons.Cheathem has written the definitive account of this important election in this volume for the esteemed American Presidential Elections series.

Both the Democratic and Republican parties are dysfunctional and no longer serve the American people adequately or fairly. Congress has an approval rating of less than 20 percent for a reason. With a few bright exceptions, Congress is a morass of self-serving, hypocritical elected officials. Wise & Reasoned addresses topics of deep concern-inequality, health care, the economy, water, prisons and jails, agriculture, infrastructure, immigration, government red tape and size, the tax code, unions, the welfare state, education, foreign affairs, global warming, abortion, guns, and LGBT-that both mainstream parties cannot or will not address in a proper fashion. It is time to hold both the Democrats and the Republicans accountable. Wise & Reasoned will inspire Independent voters, unregistered qualified voters, or unhappy Democratic and Republican voters to hold those in Congress to higher standards by taking action to form a new ombudsman third political party. Now is the time.

This book provides poetic portals into the year 2020, peering at humanity, the pandemic, patriotism, politics, prejudice and prayer.

Modern pundits give Donald Trump little credit for anything even though he is clearly The Greatest Man in Our Time. I would say it is because the bulk of the news media simply do not like him as he does not want to have anything to do with a Marxist agenda. Before Trump set the world on fire from 2017 to 2020, the five highest rated presidents, according to a C-SPAN survey, for example were Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt and Dwight D. Eisenhower. I do not contest the fact that they showed greatness in office but when you look at all of Trump's accomplishments and the complexity of our times, the 45th president deserves much more consideration. That's why I wrote this book. You may never choose to invite Donald John Trump over the house for breakfast or even a holiday gathering, but looking back at his four years in office, whether you like him or not, most Americans admit those were some of the most prosperous and warless years we have had in our lifetimes. We have the chance again to have the Greatest Man in Our Time as President in a few more years. Let's do our best to assure it. . After you read this book, I hope you feel as comfortable as I do to place Donald J. Trump on the top of this venerable stack of great presidents. With all of the flack Trump received as president, there are clearly a number of Americans who would not cast their vote for Best President his way under any circumstance. But there are a lot who would. I am glad you are reading this book as it will help you know what a great man and a great president we can have again as our leader.
