Richard M. Nixon Summary

Our history of out country developing was very, very rocky. It took a lot of courageous people with a strong belief in independence and freedom to break away from one of the most powerful countries in America at that time. Strong leaders are elected her fairly and under the direction of a Republic, where people vote for representatives to decide what is best for our country. Throughout our entire history, presidents have done their best to improve our country the best ways they think they can. Despite all of this, and despite the fact I think all of our past presidents we're great, the one I believe was the best was our president, Barack Obama.

He had refused to let his people down and reminded them that this-their liberty-was worth fighting for. As a result Washing and his colonial army were victorious, and because of his great leadership we are free. The Articles of Confederation was our first form of government, though it clearly wasn’t successful. The national government had no control over the states; it was very chaotic.

King Arthur was a very powerful and intelligent king. From childhood, he learned many virtues and lessons, but he didn’t know that the lessons he was learning had to do with becoming a great leader. Ben Carson is very similar to king Arthur in many ways. Ben learned several things from childhood as well as from reading literature of the world around him which made him a great man later on in life. I will be talking about Ben Carson and why he is a great reincarnation of King Arthur.

Cyrus the Great’s legacy began over 2000 years ago and nevertheless, people are continuing to learn from his successes are a leader. Today, his legacy remains a part of history as his leadership skills set a precedent for his decedents and other numerous leaders in history. Though known as a successful leader among his subjects and peer, he was no perfect being and had his failures throughout his rule. He exuberated XYZ, which affected his reign. Though thousands of years have passed since Cyrus’ reign, leaders are still studying his past leadership characteristics to learn from him.

Also in Act 4, he was highly conflicted over whether or not to confess to working with the devil to escape death. In the end, he decided lying was a sin he did not want to commit and chose to die a honest man rather than survive as a deceptive man. So in the end it is clear to see that John Proctor still is a good man despite his short-lived affair with Abigail. He was an honest, good-hearted man who wished for nothing more than to live a good life with his wife and children.

When it was the right time he humbly claims that he did lie about the treasure. He accepts that he should be punished for lying to them, but right now they should still trust him so they could together find and stop Everett’s wife from marrying someone else. This shows that he knows of his faults, but focused on the main goals. Everett lies, but he lies about something that does not harm others, but does it in a way so he can also benefit. His companions did not loss anything that they had instead they were freed from jail.

Like every ruler Peter did make mistakes, yet Peter the Great had a way of evening out or overcoming his failures with success. Peter the Great was an extremely impactful and productive ruler; he completely reformed his country, and established foreign policies to strengthen

We have seen this occur in history numerous times. Take the Jimmy Hoffa case, for example. He was one of the most influential people who brought about great change. With all the popularity and support he gained there were also those who deeply resented him too. It wasn’t just a few people, but dozens of people who engaged in ruthless acts on him to try to achieve their

In a life or death situation do you play it safe or take the gamble? Will starts by being naive but persevered through the attack and became more grateful and a stronger person in the end. John was a very strict business man and is competitive just like Will by the end he is happy with everything he has. The little asian woman, Ting, was weak and shy at the beginning but by the end of the book she was more tolerate and became friends with Will and his father. In the novel We All Fall Down by Eric Walters, during a crisis people become their strongest and best self.

The first example of this was that King Arthur was not an ordinary person but he had no special ability over anyone else. The reason his story was made into a story is because he was such a great leader, and the story of how he came to be leader gave people hope and something to strive for. Everyone knows the story of King Arthur and the knights of the round table and it just goes to show you even after all these years King Arthur's story is still affecting modern life. It can be assumed that King Arthur was a great leader and very compelling one  because he had so many loyal fighters with him at the last

Patrick O’Brien Mr. Natoli Civics and Economics Honors 17 May 2016 When mentioning founding fathers, not many people think of John Adams first, but his unique views had an important impact on our history and culture. Even in his early years John was in a class of his own coming from a humble background to become a prominent lawyer while seeking his passion for education and justice. Later in life, John Adams went on to do even more incredible things as a vocal political figure which led him to become an incredibly successful and influential politician during the development of our country. Throughout his life he was incredibly passionate about his values and ideals that influenced our countries development.

I agree Andrew Jackson 's presidency was during a perfect time.   Andrew Jackson was a very strong war hero and political leader during his time. His presidential race and terms changed several ideas in America about politics. He was a self-made man who faced many challenges during his early life but he was able to overcome and to become a successful man. I think these difficulties helped to shape his character and to contribute to his resilience to keep achieving.

This chapter covered a lot of information and lots of history in comparison to the other chapters thus far. The background of the Oneida Community was proportionally more of a biography on John Humphrey Noyes, the founder of the group and his beliefs. He had an interesting history including getting his license to be a preacher taken away, but he was a proud man and didn’t not lose confidence in himself. After this happened in his life the Putney Perfectionism Association begin. His ideas were radical and communist in nature, but his community found itself growing and quickly developed into a success after certain members were accepted.

Weems receives the credit for the cherry tree myth that so many of us know to this very day and use this to give an exaggerated reason for Washington 's honesty. He used this wild story to gain any small amount of wealth he could grab from the unsuspecting people of this time. He weaved stories to teach lessons on behalf of Washington to further his point that he was such a great leader. President Abraham Lincoln admitted to reading the stories as a young boy to help shape him into the great president he had later become. By making up these stories to heighten Washington’s stature, people admired and perceived him as a religious man, even though there is no evidence to support that he was a devout Christian.

Striving for success brought out the best in me. Though I didn’t receive a promotion, I am seen as a leader due to my additional duties. Volunteering was also beneficial, as I learned respect, and humility. Today I have successfully used my failure as a catalyst to achieve my goal of retraining to be a K9 dog handler in the Air Force. In a way I am glad I didn’t receive the promotion; I learned that failure is the composition of
