He Issues That Concern Young Voters Most Have Assumed a Prominent Role in the 2004 Presidential Election As Both John Kerry and George W --:---.---.~.--- -~------ STORY BY MADDIE HANNA AND JOE HETTLER he issues that concern young voters most have assumed a prominent role in the 2004 presidential election as both John Kerry and George W. Bush strive to secure the youth vote. _ T "Younger voters are particularly interested in what the future might hold," American Studies professor Robert Schmuhl said. "Whether the candidates have addressed these concerns in compelling ways is an open question. .. Historically, economic issues tend to assume dominant importance in a presidential campaign. This year is different, with the war in Iraq and the threat of terrorism vying for voter concern."

Today, this still happens. But, today, most of the decisions that affect WHITEHOUSE.GOV Americans’ day-to-day lives are made by entities known as federal agencies. The reason for their existence is simple. Congress’s job is to draft and pass legislation. Much of the legislation that they pass is broad in scope and affects millions of people. Because our country has become so populous and increasingly diverse, it would be impossible for Congress to be experts on every piece of legislation it passed. Likewise, the President, who is tasked with enforcing the laws that Congress passes, cannot by himself do everything that is necessary to make sure that all parts of a law are being followed correctly. Finally, the Supreme Court and federal courts are far too busy hearing and deciding cases to worry about such matters as how many judges are needed, how much the budget will be for the upcoming year, and how to supervise the thousands of federal court employees.

  • Faith Without Funding, Values Without Justice
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FAITH WITHOUT FUNDING, VALUES WITHOUT JUSTICE: THE BUSH CAMPAIGN’S SUCCESSFUL TARGETING OF AFRICAN AMERICAN EVANGELICAL PASTORS AND CHURCHES IN THE 2004 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION Tamara Wilds Lawson, Ph.D., 2009 Directed By: Professor Sheri Parks, American Studies This dissertation examines the impact of the Black church on electoral politics through an analysis of the role it played during the 2004 presidential election. By examining this particular election, I illustrate both the complexity and political import of the Black church and how neither can be taken for granted by presidential candidates or major political parties seeking to win elections. Paying particular attention to the strategies the Bush campaign and Republican Party used to target a certain segment of the Black church, I focus on faith-based initiatives and same-sex marriage as two specific issues that connected Black churches to the 2004 presidential election in critical ways. I collected data from historical and political texts as well as newspapers and published reports. My interviews with a cross-section of clergy, party operatives and political activists also provided critical information. This dissertation will examine the significance of the role faith-based initiatives and values centered wedge politics played in impacting Black pastors and churches during the countdown to the general election of 2004. The Bush campaign targeted and successfully reached evangelical Black pastors and congregations across the nation by appealing to their conservative moral values. This is significant for two reasons. First, because in expressing their support for President Bush, these Black churches represented a clear departure from the perception that all Black churches support Democratic candidates.

  • Women Leaders in Global Health Conference 2019 Proceeding Report
    KIGALI The University of Global Health Equity presents the; CONVENTION CENTRE RWANDA WOMEN LEADERS IN GLOBAL HEALTH CONFERENCE 2019 PROCEEDING REPORT In affiliation with conference participants, delegates, sponsors and academic partners 9-10TH NOVEMBER HOSTED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF GLOBAL HEALTH EQUITY 9-10TH INTRODUCTION NOVEMBER INTRODUCTION The University of Global Health Equity (UGHE) partnered with Women Leaders in Global Health Initiative, now renamed WomenLift Health, which is an initiative of Stanford University to address challenges to better health outcomes, and increase investment in health and education through promoting women’s representation in leadership globally. Through this initiative, two consecutive conferences were undertaken in 2017 (hosted by Stanford University) and 2018 (hosted by London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine). The WLGH conference series rotates every year in other regions. Building on the experiences from these Conferences, the 2019 Women Leaders in Global Health Conference (WLGH19) was hosted in Rwanda, Kigali Convention Center across November 9- 10, 2019, by the University of Global Health Equity (UGHE), to continue the global agenda for better gender equity in health research in academia and in clinical fields. The organization of this conference required identification and recruitment of relevant speakers, panelists and mentors to share leadership experiences, lessons, and best practices. As with previous WLGH Conferences, UGHE organized an international conference committee, a scientific committee, and a national conference committee to facilitate the preparation and implementation of the Conference. Organizers of the event included an operational team at UGHE, and external advisory groups below. a) International Conference Committee: This group was composed of highly esteemed professionals in Global Health who volunteered their time for activities including liaising with key contacts and developing the conference program.
