analytic observation that I made was simply that the tone portrayed in the reading was cold and dry. I observed that it carried no real emotion‚ merely explaining what real life is in America. The problem is that this passage is Richard M. Nixon’s voice and perspective. Mind you that our 37th president served during 1969-1974 a time when the inequality of race‚ color‚ creed was still a progressing issue‚ and also a time when we were involved in war. The point is the opinion on freedom is biased and

Abstract: The Voice Within The ‘loud or quiet’ political behavior shows understanding‚ and results in true effective thought and change.

The political compromise during the period of 1820 to 1860 was unable to reduce sectional tension during this time period. According to Tom Meltzer and Jean H.
