Kim Kardashian
On the Issues

For the first time since the brave Hilary Clinton, we have another woman running for president. Ladies and gentlemen, Kim Kardashian. Kardashian has plenty of prior accomplishments she has already made including things like her families reality TV show which has lasted eight seasons with three spinoff shows. Kardashian and her other two sisters also have their own chain of stores named “DASH” which have three locations, the first in Los Angeles, the second in Miami and the last they opened in New York City. Kardashian also recently got engaged to one of the richest rappers in the US, Kanye West. Their engagement took place on her birthday at Giants Stadium where Kardashian, of course, said yes. Their child North is now 4 months old. Kardashian started her campaign later than most which made her nervous and she was doing anything she could to catch up. Kardashian has been traveling all week to different malls all over the country handing out pamphlets, free makeup and nail polish. The three main things she strives to fix with the US and Americans are childhood obesity, racism and having people improve their image when they are out in public. She worries that these are the three things that are tearing our country down.
We got to talk to the only woman candidate Kim Kardashian, yesterday, as well as her mother Kris. Kardashian, 33, from Los Angeles, CA, has been a socialite all her life. “It was hard growing up in the spotlight but it has made me who I am and I wouldn’t have had it any other way,” she told us. She made it very clear that she was extremely thankful for her parents and that she would not have been able to come anywhere near this goal of hers without their support and money. “Ever since I was a child I had always wanted to be president. My friends always told me I was bossy enough to run the country, since I was usually running the class anyway,” Kardashian says while laughing. “Kim was always an outgoing child,

She said, “I think you all know me well enough to know I would document the process if I got a surrogate. Everyone’s body is different, every pregnancy is very different!

Defining this term, Televangelist Rick Warren explains the principal of “seed faith”, or “sowing and reaping” as sending money to his church -“planting the seed”- whenever you might have or ask for a need from God. Given time you will “harvest” the benefits and gain what you originally asked for with blessings (Warren). Oliver, however, has a different view about such prosperity gospels and made…

    Although that may not necessarily be a bad thing, we need a form of change in our country. Something to unify the people and give ourselves a reminder of why this country is supposed to be a leader of the world, and how we earned the title “land of the free, home of the brave.” Hilary, maintaining most of what rang as gospel in the Obama administration, may find herself in the most amicable of spots. A position of power that no woman has ever held before and a nation she can shape however she wants. For that, I applaud her. However, she’s never quite made a clear and unequivocal stance. Changing her ideals and propositions as it becomes the “popular” thing to do. She panders and she caters to whatever takes to be commonplace in the eyes of the people and despite her recurrent insistence of being revolutionary in her opinions she never quite suffices to live up to such a title of grandeur. Don’t even get me started on her moral ambiguity according to what she has presented to the…

Dr. Gail Saltz, a psychoanalyst says that Clinton appeals to the American audience because she is calculative, diplomatic, formal and aware (Chozick, 2016). Clinton’s calculative nature can be seen on her speeches, which are rehearsed and spoken with conviction as she uses more complex language. She is also diplomatic in her speeches, avoiding insults and questions, not name-calling, raising her voice and going out of focus in delivery of her message unlike Trump. Lastly, she speaks with a more formal register, appealing to the knowledgeable. It is her pure intellect and awareness on diplomacy that attracts Clinton’s psychology in her voters. One target audience Clinton appeals to is female voters in particular is also because she is the first female presidential nominee. Feminists say that Clinton’s win can help empower women, showing that that they can be equal in strength (Chozick, 2016). Secondly, Clinton’s supporters are also the working middle-class generation, as many agree with her diplomacy as they believe that America is operating efficiently as of today. Many of her supporters are college graduates, well-informed and believe that Trump is not a politician, merely a businessman. Thus, voters believe that Clinton has more logical and emotional…
