Hillary Clinton’s hair choices have been relentlessly examined throughout her political career. Check out Google to read the non-stop (typically negative) commentary about her hair styles (Search: Hillary Clinton hairstyles). While this trend hints at sexism, Donald Trump also suffers from extensive negative hair analysis. What seems to be a silly obsession points to a larger problem regarding what matters to voters. A 2007 Princeton study revealed that surface wins over substance with most voters. Researchers found that 70 per cent of political races in the U.S. could be predicted simply by showing voters photos of two candidates. Why do you think voters care more about superficial traits than meaningful leadership qualities? Do Canadian voters exhibit the same tendencies as U.S. voters?

  • Hillary Rodham Clinton, “Remarks on the Release of the 10Th Annual Trafficking in Persons Report” (14 June 2010)
    Voices of Democracy 10 (2015): 1-19 1 HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON, “REMARKS ON THE RELEASE OF THE 10TH ANNUAL TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS REPORT” (14 JUNE 2010) Karrin Vasby Anderson Colorado State University 1 Abstract: On June 14, 2010, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton released the State Department’s 10th annual Trafficking in Persons Report. Clinton used her speech to expand the neo-abolitionist frame that dominated anti-trafficking discourse, presenting human trafficking as a global human rights issue rather than as a problem primarily of law and border enforcement. Clinton’s speech also asserted the continuing moral authority of the United States and showcased her pragmatic sensibilities and presidential gravitas. Key Words: Hillary Clinton, Human Trafficking, Abolition, Modern-Day Slavery, Rhetoric and Diplomacy, Gender and Leadership. The problem of human trafficking has a long history, as does the record of oratorical opposition to it. Historically, abolition discourse not only condemned slavery and the transatlantic slave trade, but also offered radical reformers the opportunity to promote universal suffrage, expand the meaning of citizenship, and challenge dominant power structures.1 Contemporary anti-trafficking rhetoric often is less radical, having emerged from faith-based opposition to both legal and forced prostitution, and from governmental efforts to police borders. Much of this discourse is shaped by a “neo-abolitionist” understanding of human trafficking as “modern-day slavery”—a crime that Western governments and law enforcement agencies could prosecute and eradicate. Neo-abolitionism also posits that people with economic and political privilege are duty-bound to rescue those being “victimized” by traffickers. This view of the problem of human trafficking is challenged by a contrasting “human rights” perspective, which asserts that labor and sexual exploitation is a systemic problem—an outgrowth of poverty, misogyny, globalization, and technological change.

  • Part C Webster L. Hubbell's Billing Practices and Tax Filings
    PART C WEBSTER L. HUBBELL'S BILLING PRACTICES AND TAX FILINGS I. INTRODUCTION Shortly after their former partner Webster L. Hubbell became Associate Attorney General of the United States in January 1993, Rose Law Firm members in Little Rock found irregularities in Hubbell's billings for 1989-92. In March 1994, regulatory Independent Counsel Robert Fiske, received information that Hubbell may have violated federal criminal laws through his billing activities. Mr. Fiske then opened a criminal investigation. In the wake of these inquiries, Hubbell announced his resignation as the Associate Attorney General on March 14, 1994, saying this would allow him to settle the matter. Upon his appointment in August 1994, Independent Counsel Starr continued the investigation already started by Mr. Fiske. This resulted in Hubbell pleading guilty to one felony count of mail fraud and one felony count of tax evasion in December 1994, admitting that he defrauded his former partners and clients out of at least $394,000.1 On June 28, 1995, Judge George Howard sentenced Hubbell to twenty-one months' imprisonment.2 Sometime after Hubbell's sentencing, the Independent Counsel learned that a meeting had been held at the White House the day before Hubbell announced his resignation, where Hubbell's problems and resignation were discussed. Senior White House officials, including the President, 1 Plea Agreement, United States v. Webster Lee Hubbell, No. 94-241 (E.D. Ark. Dec. 6, 1994).

    COMMENT https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-020-00679-5 OPEN United by the global COVID-19 pandemic: divided by our values and viral identities ✉ Mimi E. Lam 1 The rapidly evolving landscape of the global COVID-19 pandemic necessitates urgent scientific advances and adaptive behavioural and policy responses to contain viral transmission, reduce impacts on public health, and minimise soci- 1234567890():,; etal disruption. Epidemiological models of SARS-CoV-2 transmission are heavily influencing policy responses, forecasting viral infection, transmission, and death rates under simplified representations of human behaviour. They either assume that all members of a population or demographic group behave identically or design individual behavioural rules based on demographic and mobility data. In pluralistic societies, however, individual behavioural responses vary with per- sonal values, situational contexts, and social group identities, affecting policy compliance and viral transmission. Here, I identify and explore the impacts of salient viral identities or “COVID-19 personality types” that are emerging and fluidly coalescing with each other and existing social and political identities. The resultant heightened inter-group differentiation explains the politicisation of the pandemic and rampant racism, discrimination, and conflict observed now and with epidemics historically. Recognising salient COVID-19 behavioural identities can improve scientific forecasting of SARS-CoV-2 transmission and the impact of containment measures, as well as tailor nuanced policy interventions and communications to enhance individual coping and compliance. As governments contemplate easing social-distancing restrictions, the science-society-policy nexus needs fortification through public participation, structured deliberation, and evidence-informed decision-making of policy options to negotiate the complex value trade-offs among public health, the market economy, and civil liberty.

  • Special Counsels, Independent Counsels, and Special Prosecutors: Options for Independent Executive Investigations Name Redacted Legislative Attorney
    Special Counsels, Independent Counsels, and Special Prosecutors: Options for Independent Executive Investigations name redacted Legislative Attorney June 1, 2017 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R44857 Special Counsels, Independent Counsels, and Special Prosecutors Summary Under the Constitution, Congress has no direct role in federal law enforcement and its ability to initiate appointments of any prosecutors to address alleged wrongdoings by executive officials is limited. While Congress retains broad oversight and investigatory powers under Article I of the Constitution, criminal investigations and prosecutions have generally been viewed as a core executive function and a responsibility of the executive branch. Historically, however, because of the potential conflicts of interest that may arise when the executive branch investigates itself (e.g., the Watergate investigation), there have been calls for an independently led inquiry to determine whether officials have violated criminal law. In response, Congress and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) have used both statutory and regulatory mechanisms to establish a process for such inquiries. These responses have attempted, in different ways, to balance the competing goals of independence and accountability with respect to inquiries of executive branch officials. Under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978, Congress authorized the appointment of “special prosecutors,” who later were known as “independent counsels.” Under this statutory scheme, the Attorney General could request that a specially appointed three-judge panel appoint an outside individual to investigate and prosecute alleged violations of criminal law. These individuals were vested with “full power and independent authority to exercise all investigative and prosecutorial functions and powers of the Department of Justice” with respect to matters within their jurisdiction.

  • For Internal Discussion Only
    EMBARGOED UNTIL TUESDAY, JUNE 2 EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT COUNCIL OF ECONOMIC ADVISERS THE ECONOMIC CASE FOR HEALTH CARE REFORM JUNE 2009 EMBARGOED UNTIL TUESDAY, JUNE 2 THE ECONOMIC CASE FOR HEALTH CARE REFORM EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) has undertaken a comprehensive analysis of the economic impacts of health care reform. The report provides an overview of current economic impacts of health care in the United States and a forecast of where we are headed in the absence of reform; an analysis of inefficiencies and market failures in the current health care system; a discussion of the key components of health care reform; and an analysis of the economic effects of slowing health care cost growth and expanding coverage. The findings in the report point to large economic impacts of genuine health care reform: We estimate that slowing the annual growth rate of health care costs by 1.5 percentage points would increase real gross domestic product (GDP), relative to the no-reform baseline, by over 2 percent in 2020 and nearly 8 percent in 2030. For a typical family of four, this implies that income in 2020 would be approximately $2,600 higher than it would have been without reform (in 2009 dollars), and that in 2030 it would be almost $10,000 higher. Under more conservative estimates of the reduction in the growth rate of health care costs, the income gains are smaller, but still substantial. Slowing the growth rate of health care costs will prevent disastrous increases in the Federal budget deficit.
