Barry M. Goldwater
[ send me this essay ]
( 9 pp.) What makes a conservative? Parents?
Upbringing? Past experiences, Or the ability to
put all of those things together, be aware of
history, and come to some personal conclusions?
In the case of Arizona Senator and basic maverick,
Barry M. Goldwater (1909 - 1998), we would have
to say all of the above. In his personal and
political memoirs, With No Apologies, published in
1979, Mr. Goldwater observed that his run for the
presidency in 1964"was like trying to stand up in
a hammock." He said he knew that his chances of
winning were slim and contended, that his fellow
Republicans cost him any chance he might have had
during the battle for the Republican nomination.
And in our description above did we mention,
Goldwater as a facilitator of tact? Bibliography

Bellamy's "Looking Backward" – The Problem With Nineteenth-Century Industrialism
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Edward Bellamy finds many things problematic about the rise of late nineteenth-century industrialism in Looking Backward: 2000-1887. The extent to which this rise of social progress served to economically stunt the masses while creating fortunes for a handful of savvy – if not unscrupulous – businessmen is both grand and far-reaching; that Bellamy's account points out this and many other social, political and economic inequities speaks to a time of American evolution that was not holistically beneficial as many believe. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
