This series is part of
the Politics series As an English word, the term was originally used to refer to the presiding officer of a committee or governing body in Great Britain. Early examples are the President of the Exchequer ("presidentis" in the original Latin, from the Dialogue concerning the Exchequer, 1179), the universities of Oxford and Cambridge (from 1464); the founding President of the Royal Society William Brouncker in 1660. Later this usage was applied to political leaders, including the leaders of some of the Thirteen Colonies (originally Virginia in 1608); in full, the "President of the Council".[1] The first President of a country was George Washington, the President of the United States. In America the title was "upgraded" from its earlier use for the President of the Continental Congress, the "officer in charge of the Continental Congress" since 1774. As other countries followed the American Revolution, and deposed their monarchies, president was commonly adopted as the title for the new republican heads of state. The first European president was the president of France, a post created in the Second Republic of 1848. (The First Republic had begun with no separate executive, then established five directors, and finally echoed the ancient Roman Republic by appointing three consuls at its head.)

On February 27th, 1951, the 22nd amendment was ratified which made permanent a tradition that has profound influence on the philosophy of government in the United States of America.

4. Search Engines and Socialism
November 19, 2008
It would be shocking to me, at this point, if Barack Obama is not elected as our next President. It reminds me of the phrase … “be careful what you ask for … you might just get it.”
Consider what Obama and a certain large majority of Democrats in both parties will surely do:
1. They will raise taxes for BOTH income and Social Security taxes for those earning over $250,000 while providing tax cuts for those earning less. But what he doesn’t tell you is those who pay little or no federal income tax, will receive a check from the government. As he told “Joe the Plumber” in his own wo... (read more)

5. New President, Classic Shades: Ray-Bans Return to the White House
November 21, 2008
The message of Barack Obama's successful presidential campaign may have been "Change", but with his no-drama persona and careful wardrobe selections he didn't rock the boat. The classic suits, no-nonsense ties: the liberal looked pretty conservative most of the time. Still, the nation's first African-American president was bound to become a style icon, and he wears the sunglasses favored by dozens of famous icons: Ray-Bans. In most photographs he appears to be wearing Ray-Ban 3217s, a rimless style that isn't among the brand's best-known models.
The most well-known style of Ray-Bans is th... (read more)

That’s pretty much how affiliate marketing works. Through these online programs, you sign on with a partner that markets your product or service, often through a link or banner ad you place on their website. The affiliate then gets a commission based on sales, visits, or customers that result from those efforts. It’s the ultimate in pay for performance. “An affiliate partner will do a lot of the marketing for you. And you only owe money if they provide the outcome you want,” says Marty Fahncke, president of FawnKey & Associates, a consulting firm with expertise in affiliate marketing.

13. Barack Obama Becomes First Black Man In Oval Office
November 18, 2008

15. A Brief History of United States Presidents
November 17, 2008
There have been many Presidents of the United States since the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, but few people realize that the Presidential history also includes a series of Presidents who lead the Colonies long before the United States was founded as a free nation. Even though the colonies were controlled by King George III, the Congress which governed the colonies under the King was lead by a President. By the time July 2, 1776 rolled around and the Declaration of Independence was signed, the colonies had already had two Presidents, Peyton Randolph and Henry Middleton. Joh... (read more)

16. The History of Presidents Day
November 17, 2008
Few young folks today recognize that "Presidents Day" was actually a holiday created to specially recognize George Washington, on his birthday.

20. Time for Justice
November 17, 2008
Before leaving the White House, President Bush should pardon U.S. Border Patrol Agents, Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean.

21. Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation by Ronald Reagan
November 17, 2008
In 1983, President Reagan wrote an essay for the “Human Life Review” entitled, “Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation.” This brief writing of his pro-life philosophy was published in book form a year later.
