Term Papers on History
History In my paper the Democratic Candidates are Al Gore and Bill Bradley. They both have a lot of the same views on issues that have come out in the campaigning. For the Rebublicans it is George W. Bush and John McCain. Both of these guys have different views on their issues. The debates between these two men have really been heating up and it will be interesting to see the outcome of this election. But also on the other side of this the Democratic battle has also been a though one but I think Bradley will drop out. He feels and knows he is over matched. Al Gore served in the U.S. Army in Vietnam. He worked for seven years as a newspaper reporter and then was elected to Congress from Tennessee. After eight years in the House of Representatives and eight years as an U.S. Senator from Tennessee, he was elected Vice President of the United States. For almost seven years, Al Gore has been a central member of President Clinton's economic team -- helping to design the program that has led to our strong economy, casting the tie-breaking Senate vote for the plan in 1993, helping to pass the first balanced budget in 30 years. He has helped to usher in the longest peacetime economic expansion in American history -- with over 18 million new jobs, wages rising twice the rate of inflation, the lowest African-American and Hispanic poverty on record, the highest level of private home ownership ever, more investment in our cities, and the lowest unemployment in 29 years. Since his days in the House and Senate, Vice President Gore's environmental record has been unparalleled. He leads the Administration's efforts to protect the environment in a way that also strengthens the economy -- such as working with the Big Three auto makers to support the development of a new generation of fuel- and energy-efficient vehicles, and working to combat global warming in a way that also creates new jobs, by helping America lead the estimated $400 billion worldwide market for new technologies that clean up the environment. Bill Bradley was born on July 28, 1943, in Crystal City, Missouri, the only child of Warren and Susan Bradley. The Bradleys lived a comfortable, middle-class life in a small, multiracial, multiethnic town on the banks of the Mississippi River, thirty-six miles south of St. Louis. The Crystal City of Bill's youth was a blue-collar company town with a single stoplight and a population of 3,492. With the support of his family and the close-knit community around him, Bill developed the values that have guided him as a leader, athlete, writer, U.S. Senator, and presidential candidate. While Bill was growing up, Warren Bradley was a respected small-town banker. He had been forced to quit high school at age sixteen to help support his family, taking a job with the St. Louis-San Francisco Railroad. A few years later, he began what was to become a long and fulfilling career at the local bank, first "shining pennies," and working his way up to become assistant cashier, cashier, and eventually president of the bank. He gave Bill his first job as a janitor at the bank during school breaks. A reserved man, Warren Bradley had a clear sense of ethics and lived by a strict code of conduct. Warren's proudest achievement was that he never foreclosed on a single homeowner throughout the Great Depression, something that earnedhim the admiration and gratitude of the local community. Bill's mother was an energetic and strong-willed former schoolteacher. Susie Bradley taught Sunday school classes at the Presbyterian Church across the street from the Bradley home, which the family attended every week. She also doted on her only son. Susie kept Bill active and involved as a child, enrolling him in piano, trumpet, French, swimming, basketball, boxing, and French horn.
