“Late term abortion methods have been one of the most divisive issues of this Congress and has figured prominently in debates over party platforms in the Presidential election year” . This issue is very important because often many people base their votes upon the position the candidates take upon it. The Democratic and Republican view are completely different. The Democrats are pro-choice and the Republicans are Pro-life.

President Bill Clinton expresses his views clearly, when hr recently vetoed a bill which would have banned late term abortions. “Advocates of abortion rights called the ban the first step in a campaign to out law abortion again, but the ban s advocates say that this method is a gruesome procedure that borders on infanticide”. An accomplishment The Democratic party has had on Abortion was, when they made it a federal crime to threaten or force to intimidate women entering abortion clinics. President Clinton feels a woman has a right to choose no matter how far along she may be in her pregnancy. He thinks everyone has the right to his/her opinion on the topic of abortion.

These were the three main issues that were discussed by President Bill Clinton during his 1996 Re-election Campaign and after his re-election. What he had promised the public before he was re-elected is slowly being enforced by him now. Making him the true president he was set out to be.

American History

CLINTON ADMINISTRATION

Every election year, candidates come and go with all sorts of different issues. This year re-elected President Bill Clinton came up with the three main issues that every one wanted to hear about, Tax, Education, and Abortion. All through out his campaign he discussed ways on reforming these issues and we finally get to see what reformations have actually taken place since his re- election.

Through out our great country s history, the Presidential candidates have debated over taxes. The issue of taxes has become a part of this country s history in that not one presidential election has gone by, with out the candidates discussing their plans on how to improve the tax issue. All of them say they will lower taxes but none of them actually ever do this. In order to lower the taxes the government would have to borrow money, highering the national debt. If the national debt gets larger, then the President doesn t have a good chance of being re-elected again.

It is relevantly obvious that candidates would say anything to make the people happy. Which in return would help the candidates receive the votes they needed to get into office in which in most circumstances they won t do as promised, during the election.

This year, another presidential election in which the two parties reside on this issue all over again. The 1996 re-elect President, Bill Clinton came back with the tax issues that he maintained four years ago. Four years ago, when Democrat, President Clinton came into office, he promised middle-class income tax payers a choice between tax credit for each child and a reduction of their income tax rate. Instead when he came into office, he stated that lowering the deficit had to be the nations first economic priority. He pushed it through Congress, and it passed with out a single republican vote. But when the president tried to get the “Middle class bill of rights” passed, it didn t pass because of the Republican majority in Congress. The bill would have established a thousand dollar annual tax deduction for the college or voc
