Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that the seemingly foundational aspects of universal suffrage, based on age, race and gender is often something many people in the United States take for granted as something that if not an innate semblance of the original Constitution, at least one that was worked out as a matter of coarse rather quickly in the history of the nation. The writer notes that this is clearly not the case as all the suffrage amendments to the Constitution were hard fought and hard won by the different groups that helped make them permanent additions to the laws of this land. In this work the 26th amendment is discussed, as the amendment that provided for universal suffrage based on the age of 18 it is often one that is ignored in the history books and among the people of the US.

From the Paper
"This amendment was actually the fourth to the constitution that enlarged the voting pool, as the 15th amendment (1869) gave blacks the right to vote at least in a legal sense, the 19th (1920) gave the vote to women and the 23rd (1960) gave the right for District of Colombian citizens to vote for presidential candidates. It would seem strange that such a change took so long, as it was clear much earlier that legal issues of responsibility, such as the age of consent and other responsibility for actions issues were, on a state and federal level clearly leaning in the direction of 18 as the key age. Yet, prior to this time states independently determined the legal age to vote, as barring a constitutional statement to the contrary this was within the rights of the state."

Abstract
The paper discusses the complex and controversial disaster relief efforts following Hurricane Katrina.

It was the sixth strongest hurricane within the Atlantic and the third strongest to ever record landfall within the United States. The hurricane displaced hundreds of thousands of resident stretching from Florida to Louisiana, with the majority of victims falling within New Orleans. Within the span of two weeks, more than 700 bodies were recovered. The nature of this natural disaster brought about one of the most complex and controversial disaster relief efforts in history."

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that in the past few years, international economic issues affecting world poverty, such as farm aid programs, have emerged as a growing concern among federal agencies, farmers and the common taxpayer alike. The writer points out that for the past seventy-five years, federal policy makers have taken an active role in agriculture and notes that every five to seven years, agricultural policies are evaluated and reauthorized through the federal Farm Bill. This paper analyzes the proposed 2007 Farm Bill policies from an economic standpoint related to issues involving poverty. It discusses both the arguments in favor and against the proposed public policy, and concludes with the writer's personal views and recommendations regarding the effectiveness of the Farm Bill.

Outline:
Introduction
Background of the Farm Bill Policies
Arguments in Support of the Farm Bill Policies
Arguments Against the Farm Bill Policies
Recommendations and Personal View

From the Paper
"As a result of the conflicts between poorer countries and the U.S. during failed WTO negotiations, federal agencies have analyzed the proposed changes to the 2007 Farm Bill policies. The proposed changes to the Farm Bill are predicted to be implemented late in 2007, by the WTO. Historically, the U.S. has been and continues to be, the largest food aid donor in the world. The Food Aid program was designed to remedy the problem of world poverty and hunger, as one of the public policies established in the Farm Bill. Although the Food Aid Program has helped address a number of hunger emergencies, the 2007 Farm Bill offers an opportunity to reform the much-needed Food Aid program to increase its effectiveness in addressing the public concern regarding global hunger."

Outline:
Recruitment
Selection
Training

From the Paper
"Different commentaries and reactions were received regarding the proper training police officers should undertake. Training courses should be focused on on-the-job training, programs in human relations, and grounding for the social service purpose of police officers. Later reports focused on the biases and prejudices in the training process that may affect police-community relations. Police officers seemed to be oppressors people were afraid to come near to, regardless of them being criminals or civilians. James Fyfe who made a transcript on police practices stated that a better way to define the police is to understand that they are there to maintain order and not necessarily to look for criminals. He recommended this viewpoint should pass through police training programs. James Fype also said that the avoidance of discriminatory behavior at the early levels of police officer training would make a significant impact since when these officers are still at the initial stages, they are more receptive and eager to learn."

Abstract
This paper discusses how, as the 21st century moves forward in America, socioeconomic and demographic trends emerging in the nation pose their own unique challenges. The paper explains that America is faced with an aging population, increasing costs of national defense and social programs, and the ongoing effort to balance the federal budget. With this in mind, the paper reviews the question of whether or not Social Security will be around in thirty years.

Outline:
Abstract
Thesis Statement
Reinforcement of the Argument
Conclusion/Recommendations

From the Paper
"There is also a public welfare dynamic that supports the argument that Social Security will be around in thirty years. Having shown that the American population is aging and will continue to do so, if Social Security is phased out, the welfare of the individuals who rely upon this program for survival comes into question, and someone will have to take care of these deprived individuals (Olsen, 2002). It would be nonsensical to take away Social Security, as the program, for all of its flaws, gives the government the ability to tax wage earners in support of the program. If this tax revenue is stopped, and the government still has to provide for those in need as it surely will do without Social Security in place, an attempt to solve one problem will be replaced with a much larger crisis."

Introduction
The Media and Government Corruption

From the Paper
"As globalization leads us towards a world economy, it becomes necessary to consider leadership in the world community. One of the most prevalent problems associated with leadership today is the problem of government corruption at every level of the spectrum. Corruption is not a problem that is unique to any one government, but often times depending on the resources at stake, such as conflict diamonds, becomes indicative of the corruption and level of the corruption associated with the resource."

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
This paper describes the steps necessary for policy analysis development, particularly in the case of the city of Waterville. The paper describes the deterioration of the social structure of the city and then goes on to analyze the underlying problems and reasons for this deterioration. The paper concludes by discussing some solutions to the problems faced by the city of Waterville.

From the Paper
"Another underlying problem is the diversification of the Waterville population, which is not twenty-five percent Hispanic. However, city and business leadership does not reflect this large population and there have been significant conflicts between the city leadership and the Hispanic community. Most of these conflicts are centered on the use of city parks, zoning, dances, hiring policies and police practices."
"Now that we have looked at the entire problem, the next step is to analyze their causes. Although Mayor Joyce Allen has stated that the decrease in local businesses can be attributed to the increase in drug use, there seems to be an underlying problem beyond the youth drug use."

Foreign Policy towards the Middle East, 2007.
This paper explains what must be the goals of the U.S. administration's future Middle Eastern policy.
1,247 words (approx. 5.0 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 42.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer maintains that the the goals of future U.S. Middle Eastern policy should be peace, the promise of a new United States image in the region, and greater independence from the nations that would cause harm. The writer then argues that the three main goals of the next administration should and must be to begin to bring the current conflict in Iraq to a successful or at least manageable political and diplomatic solution rather than a military conclusion, to facilitate new negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians and finally to reduce U.S. dependence on Middle Eastern oil. The writer concludes that diplomacy and acting multilaterally must be the goal, both of the U.S. policy in its phased withdrawal from Iraq and also in continuing to strive to broker an effective peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians.

From the Paper
"At present, Iraq is a failed state and American military policy is a failed policy. The Iraqi government cannot protect its people, deliver services, collect revenues, or administer its laws. Renegade Iraqi militias are the real legal powers. Embedding more U.S. troops will simply result in further U.S. causalities. A diplomatic solution is the only hope."
"The goal of the next administration must be to create a representational Iraqi government over the next four years that is able to exert control over its oil reserves, force the militias to transfer military power to the state regime, and enforce minority rights. In exchange for turning over arms there will be amnesty for all combatants, to avoid diverting important resources into show trials that will only further divide the nation, as did the trial and execution of the former dictator Saddam Hussein."

Patriot Act, 2007.
This paper looks at the Patriot Act versus constitutionally guaranteed rights.
6,085 words (approx. 24.3 pages), 12 sources, MLA, $ 143.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that the U.S. Patriot Act was passed in haste following the terrorist attacks on the U.S. in 2001. The writer points out that the act was reauthorized and amended in 2006. The writer claims that in its urgency, the United States Congress, fueled by extremely fearful times and the mushrooming nationalism spawned by those fears, appears to have launched its own attack on the United States Constitution in order to provide the legal clout needed to avoid another attack. This paper reviews the literature surrounding the Patriot Act's intrusion into the Constitution. The writer provides a review of the issues and the amendments and looks at how the Patriot Act conflicts with those amendments.

Introduction
Bill of Rights, Amendment IV
Background on Fourth Amendment
Generalizations

Senator Russell Feingold: The only U.S. Senator to Vote against the Patriot Act in 2001
Sixth Amendment
Generalizations about the Patriot Act, the Loss of Privacy, the Digital Technology Implications and the Fourth Amendment
Librarians Concerns about the Patriot Act

From the Paper
"A recent research piece in the Brigham Young University Law Review asserts that, to begin with, there are problems for 21st Century individuals involved in justice and law enforcement. Quite apart from Patriot Act considerations, the Fourth Amendment is tricky. That is because, Minert writes, the language in the Fourth Amendment "is inherently ambiguous." Indeed the Amendment forbids "unreasonable searches and seizures" and it certainly does not outline parameters for how a proper search warrant should be given to law enforcement by courts."

Public School Policy Making, 2007.
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate an understanding of the public school policy process, key policy terminology and policy concepts by examining the public school (K-12) policy for the state of New York.

Abstract
This paper explores various policy papers, which define public school policy ranging from illumination of the classroom to environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance to funding recommendations. The author points out that a systematic difference was found between the federal and the non-federal systems in policy performance including little indication that federal systems either equalize or redistribute the aggregate resources of society. The paper relates that the goals of the governor's 'Campaign for Fiscal Equity' are (1) a multi-year, massive infusion of school funding, (2) the creation of a clear cut system of accountability to drive funds to key educational strategies and (3) a fair and simple foundation formula to distribute school aid based on student need not politics.

Policy such as this is shaped by the stated needs of certain socio-political view and in one such case the need for facility alignment for quality education is upheld by educators."

Abstract
In this article, the writer points out that the National Security Council or NSC was created and established by the National Security Act of 1947. The writer notes that the NSC is the US President's principal forum for matters concerning national security and foreign policy. Further, the writer discusses that the establishment of the NSC has been the response to the need of each administration to develop and perfect a reliable set of executive institutions for managing national security policy. The writer notes that each President was guided by the deficiencies of his predecessors and wanted to set up a system that would reflect his individual or preferred management style. The writer relates that the NSC has, thus, been modified to suit the needs and preferences of each administration.

From the Paper
"The establishment of the NSC has been the response to the need of each administration to develop and perfect a reliable set of executive institutions, which would manage its national security policy. Each President was guided by the deficiencies of his predecessors and wanted to set up a system, which would reflect his individual or preferred management style. The NSC has, thus, been modified to suit the needs and preferences of each administration. The National Security Act of July 26, 1947 created the NSC with the President as Chairman and the Secretaries of State and Defense as its key members. Its principal function is to coordinate foreign policy and defense policy and incorporate diplomatic and military requirements. It also provided for a Secretary of Defense, a National Military Establishment, a Central Intelligence Agency and a National Security Resources Board. Because the NSC was several times modified to adapt to the preferences of each President, it came to be viewed as subservient to him alone. And because its role is to establish collegiality among the departments, it also came to be viewed as a means to controlling and managing opposed departments."

Abstract
This paper stresses that foods and beverages consumed on school campuses are becoming increasingly unhealthy, which leads to increased blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes and obesity in students across the nation. The author points out that school nutrition programs, which frequently are accountable to district management to sustain their operations financially, are often at the mercy of fast food sales to generate these revenues. The paper suggests various programs by which California schools can help students understand the importance of making good food choices.

One day might offer a scoop of mashed potatoes, heaped with gravy while the next day may provide macaroni lathered in cheese product. During those years parents, teachers and students accepted what was referred to as "cafeteria food" without complaint. In recent decades however, the focus has shifted to eating healthy nutritious foods for one's entire life ..."

Controlling Urban Congestion, 2007.
This paper provides an analysis of data from London, Stockholm, and New York City in order to discuss variable pricing as a means for controlling urban congestion.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that roadway congestion is a significant problem for nations with an active motorist population, especially in urban areas. The writer points out that traditional efforts to combat congestion have typically focused on increasing capacity through increases in roadway infrastructure. The writer then claims that research has shown, however, that these methods are ultimately ineffective for controlling congestion and its associated ills. Economists have long seen the value in associating usage costs with roadways in order to control congestion and encourage more efficient resource use. The writer relates that with technology finally catching up to this ideal, roadway-pricing schemes are becoming more popular in cities throughout the world. The writer concludes that a consideration of the pros and cons of pricing strategies implemented in London and Stockholm, and proposed in New York City, reveals that while there is still significant political and public resistance, the strategies are effective at achieving their stated goals.

From the Paper
"Congestion, both in urban centers and on connecting highways, has become a major problem for the transportation networks of cities throughout the world. In the world's major metropolises, the issue has become particularly acute, with congestion having profound negative effects on air quality, travel time, the cost of goods and services, and the general livability of cities. Congestion problems are literally becoming a liability for these cities. As the pressure of congestion increases, the capacity of a given city to function effectively is greatly diminished, resulting in hidden and overt costs for individuals, businesses, and public resources. The net effect, then, of congestion has been consistently deleterious."

It was a boat that traveled on Green Lake and deposited gallons of chlorine into the water in effort to purify the water supply to that area. At that time the Seattle Health Department and Water Department worked in tandem to try and provide the purest water supply possible in the interest of public health. For many years before World War II Seattle allowed the Public Health Department to supervise and monitor the water supply."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that if one examines the history of the American government's gun control policy, then one realizes that these policies have less to do with the love of guns and more to do with the political process. Further, the writer maintains that while one can continue to put forward strong claims both for and against gun control, American history verifies the dedication towards pluralism and incrementalism. The writer points out that gun control policy evaluation reveals use of language and symbols that conflicts with complicated methods of policy formulation and execution. Further, the writer notes that the trouble free access to a large figure of guns has been associated with the high crime rates throughout the country.

From the Paper
"The passing of Sullivan Law in New York in 1909, which legalized the possession of guns, opened the doors of gun possession to the general public. This law has been passed during the time when ban on drug-use and alcohol-consumption was being strongly advanced. The passing of Sullivan Law has been not only as an outcome of this but also due to fear of increase in crime rates and population of new immigrants. In the New York City the police had strict control over the use of guns and only the most influential were allowed to possess handguns. This successful control over possession of handguns was being used as a model by supporters of Gun Control; while the opponents were using this situation to unite its support."

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses the rapid economic growth of the United States. According to the paper productivity has been a key driving force behind the United States' rapid economic growth, especially in recent years. The paper further reports that this is also a key to future economic growth rates.

From the Paper
"Innovation is the single critical factor in economic growth and the source of US economic leadership as well as the foundation of its competitiveness in the global economy (Gates 2007).
If it must remain competitive, it must take two critical steps in creating and retaining a workforce of the world's brightest minds. One is to demand strong schools for Americans entering the workforce in the fields of math, science and problem-solving skills. The second is to make it easier for foreign-born scientists and engineers to work for US companies. Businesses must advocate for strong educational policies in science and mathematics for education relevant to the needs of business. Meanwhile, government should work with educators to reform schools and improve educational excellence (Gates)."

"Throughout the years presidential pardons have sparked intense controversy. Issues such as Richard Nixon deciding to pardon Jimmy Hoffa, and then the public later finding out that Hoffa had previously made several illegal contributions to the Nixon campaign fund gave rise to scrutinizing the pardon power of the president.
Later president Gerald Ford riled the public once again when he publicly pardoned Nixon for any federal crimes he may have committed while he was president. Ford did this when Nixon was not even under any indictment which sparked an angry outcry from public officials and residents alike. "

Abstract
The paper relates that inequalities in the American healthcare system present a number of challenges to American health care managers. The paper explains that health care managers manage the state of affairs and day-to-day operations of this extremely complex system. The paper discusses their problems that include universal access to healthcare for all Americans, use of modern technology in every aspect of healthcare, universal insurance coverage for all Americans, adequate staffing in all urban and rural areas and lastly, communication with the patient so as to attain consumer satisfaction on a daily basis.

From the Paper
"Current trends show that the American healthcare system has been consistently on the decline. A gloomy picture depicted by World Health Organization (WHO) is a mere reflection of the current state of affairs. For instance, in 2000, a pioneering WHO report, which assessed healthcare systems of each and every country, positioned American healthcare system at 37 squeezed in the middle of Costa Rica, at number 36, and Slovenia, at number 38 (Lander, 2000). This rapid decline has been taking place despite the fact that America's health care expenditures are by far the largest amongst the 191 members of W.H.O."

From the Paper
"Overall the interview process revealed no real surprises. The majority of individuals who actually believe in global warming do so because of media influence. Their understanding of global warming as a specter of danger rather than concrete scientific definition is extremely disturbing. It is also an accurate picture of the reality of the American public's perception of global warming. Only a very small slice of the pejorative population actually understands the facts behind global warming. Upon understanding these facts, few are inclined to completely thrust themselves into the mainstream understanding of the dynamics of the greenhouse effect and how such an effect will cause dramatic damage to the Earth. Through this interview and the survey, a vivid and diverse picture of global warming and its actual understanding on the populace has been painted."
