Power in the Intergovernmental System
[ send me this report ]
Some analysts would claim that power in the recently established intergovernmental system resides with the big states, those with the highest populations and, hence, the most voting power. Others claim the main power in the intergovernmental system resides with those states smart enough to get the most federal monies in the form of block grants by putting in the best applications for those grants. Some say it resides with big business. This paper posits that the power, for the moment, resides with the federal government. Bibliography lists 4 sources. JVintgov.rtf

President Ford's Pardon of Richard Nixon
[ send me this report ]
A 10 page paper discussing the value of honest Presidential communication with the people of the country. This President, after taking office under the very worst possible of political conditions, approached the American people with honesty and an admission of a period of indecision, but then concluded with the reminder for us that the ultimate decision was his. That blatant honesty and commitment to doing what was right rather than what necessarily would have been politically advantageous most likely cost him a full election two years after the fact, but it gives the American people a standard against which to judge the veracity of Presidential rhetoric and also presents all those Presidents following with an example they could do worse than to follow. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

“Nixon, The Man, The Myth”: A Review of the Oliver Stone Movie
[ send me this report ]
A 6 page review of the Oliver Stone movie starring Anthony Hopkins, Joan Allen, Powers Boothe, James Woods and J.T. Walsh. The reviewer contends that, as unfortunately the case in this movie, Nixon is most often remembered for his weaknesses more so than for his accomplishments. Never-the-less, while it is the more questionable aspects of Nixon’s life which Stone chooses to capitalize upon, in doing so he has brought to life many other aspects of Richard Nixon which too many of us have forgotten. In all, in fact, Oliver Stone’s film is an excellent introduction to a very complex man. While Stone emphasizes some of Nixon’s more sordid moments in politics, he provides enough biographical detail to make his movie not only interesting but useful. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
