However, because Margaret Chase Smith set aside the Republican Party norms telling her to leave McCarthy be, and spoke up for her own individual ideas to benefit society as a whole, she gained tremendous respect throughout nation. This newfound respect allowed Margaret to run for, and win, a seat in the Senate for a continuous three more six year terms. Although Margaret Chase Smith displayed political courage to the greatest extent when she stood up to Senator McCarthy, she continued to take risks; she advocated for women's rights, and helped to crack the rather low glass ceiling that existed in the former half of the twentieth…
Thatcher Eulogy Revisions At times of tension, a country requires a leader who will not only protect his country men but work will other leaders to dissolve the tension. In her eulogy to the American public (June 11, 2004), Margaret Thatcher -- the former prime minister of Great Britain-- honors former United States President Ronald Reagan for his success as president. Thatcher’s appeals to pathos and descriptive diction lionizes Reagan for his success as a president, global leader and beloved friend. Thatcher’s appeals to pathos portrays Reagan as a significant patriotic figure to the American public.…
She started her work career as a Director of a day nursery on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. This experience gave her an acute awareness of her social surroundings. She saw first-hand how minorities were in substandard housing, inadequate schools, subjected to drugs and police brutality and no basic civil rights. This was when she determined that bad government had a connection to the fate of these minorities. She joined the Bedford-Stuyvesant Political League and gained lots of experience and political insight. She helped her neighbors to register to vote, unemployed to get jobs, students to get scholarships and fought with the league for 10 years and gained lots of respect and connections.…

Queen Elizabeth was a great ruler but had to deal with sexist stereotypes that believed women should follow their husbands and should not have any power. They believed men were chosen by god to rule the world. The people who fought for the queen said that the queen would never take attention from God and that it was the duty of the people to follow the ruler, and the ruler was Queen…
Thatcher offered different and better ideas for the country and government which many people believed an improvement, gaining her a lot of popularity amongst the public but before the Conservatives were in government with Thatcher, the Labour party had a few difficulties (such as the winter of Discontent) whilst in power, which is possibly why the Conservatives won the General election. However this win could be purely down to the conservatives and their new policies or it could’ve been down to the failure of the Labour party. I believe that it was combination of the two that led to the Conservatives win but the win, as much as it seemed likely wasn’t indefinitely certain.…

Although, it took as long as 14 years after her speech for women to have the lawful right to vote and exactly one hundred years after her birth, she campaigned and petitioned all over the nation and was part of several organizations against slavery, women’s suffrage and the labor movement. She fought and petitioned for the thirteenth amendment which was to outlaw slavery. She was threatened by many people and humiliated but nothing stopped Susan from continuing to fight for everyone’s rights. I define effective as being helpful and successful, in Susan’s case, it wasn’t successful right away, but her intelligence throughout all the years after her arrest, made her stronger and that’s what made her goal become a success, she never gave…
