    SPRING 2021 NO. 40 First Felines Calvin Coolidge owned a variety of cats, including 4 housecats, a bobcat named Bob, and 2 lion cubs called Tax Reduction and Budget Bureau, according to the Coo- lidge Foundation. The housecats included Tiger, Blacky, Bounder, and Timmie. Blacky's favorite haunt was the White House elevator, whereas Timmie liked to hang out with the family canary perched between his shoul- ders. Tiger caused quite a stir when he went miss- ing. President Coolidge appealed to the people by calling for their help in a radio address. His beloved pet was lo- cated and returned to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

  • The Rebirth of Slick: Clinton, Travolta, and Recuperations of Hard-Body Nationhood in the 1990S
    THE REBIRTH OF SLICK: CLINTON, TRAVOLTA, AND RECUPERATIONS OF HARD-BODY NATIONHOOD IN THE 1990S Nathan Titman A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Dr. Simon Morgan-Russell, Advisor Dr. Philip Terrie ii ABSTRACT Simon Morgan-Russell, Advisor This thesis analyzes the characters and performances of John Travolta throughout the 1990s and examines how the actor's celebrity persona comments on the shifting meanings of masculinity that emerged in a post-Reagan cultural landscape. A critical analysis of President Clinton's multiple identities⎯in terms of gender, class, and race⎯demonstrates that his popularity in the 1990s resulted from his ability to continue Reagan's "hard-body" masculine national identity while seemingly responding to its more radical aspects. The paper examines how Travolta's own complex identity contributes to the emergent "sensitive patriarch" model for American masculinity that allows contradictory attitudes and identities to coexist. Starting with his iconic turn in 1977's Saturday Night Fever, a diachronic analysis of Travolta's film career shows that his ability to convey femininity, blackness, and working-class experience alongside more normative signifiers of white middle-class masculinity explains why he failed to satisfy the "hard-body" aesthetic of the 1980s, yet reemerged as a valued Hollywood commodity after neoconservative social concerns began emphasizing family values and white male responsibility in the 1990s. A study of the roles that Travolta played in the 1990s demonstrates that he, like Clinton, represented the white male body's potential to act as the benevolent patriarchal figure in a culture increasingly cognizant of its diversity, while justifying the continued cultural dominance of white middle-class males.

In fact, the Office of Presidential Correspondence provides a direct connection between the White House and the American people. Presidential Correspondence provides a way for the President to find out what people are thinking and a way for him to reach out to the public directly.
