The two Mr. Clintons

Article Abstract:

President Bill Clinton by many accounts is a man of two faces, one of substance and one of scandal. He revolutionized the way a politician wins the trust of the public and the presidency. He is credited with such accomplishments as lowering welfare rolls and crime, enabling poor workers to earn more, making community colleges virtually free, passing gun control laws, helping American businesses, and reducing the federal deficit. However, history will also remember him as a president who lowered the standards of presidency when he carried on a sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky and then lied about it under oath.

The picture the world sees

Article Abstract:

Pictures of Vietnam War and the Iraq war, which the world sees, represent the policy failures and the hatred that the people of Vietnam and Iraq have towards the people of the United States. The damage, which has been done by the wars, can be repaired only under the right leadership that the United States should try to achieve, which will result in the cooperation of the other countries in fighting terrorism and help in regaining the lost respect and prestige.

Don't break the China

Article Abstract:

Chinese President Jiang Zemin and Prime Minister Zhu Rongji are not democratic leaders, but China is a more open country in 1998 than any other time in recent history. Hong Kong remains a democratic nation under Chinese rule. China is a closed country of forced labor, constant repression, and a corrupt system. However, America has traded morals and ethics for cash.
