Life, Liberty & The Pursuit Of Happiness / Still Far Off
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The concept was clear, and the idea was even carried out for a time, but the overall effectiveness of Thomas Jefferson's revolutionary vision of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is far from being realized in America. Jefferson's vision was originally created to provide for the protection of a person's natural rights, his ability to make his own way and to obtain contentment without the infringement of government or any other oppressive source. The writer discusses how this may have been realized to some extent but, for the most part, continues to evade the majority. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Looking at Bill Clinton through a Motivational
Microscope
[ send me this paper ]
(6pp) McClelland asserted that people acquired
different needs over time as a result of life
experiences. He identified three needs that affect
motivation of individuals and organizations:
"1. Need for Achievement - The desire to do
something better or more efficiently to solve
problems, or to grasp and solve complex problems.
2. Need for Affiliation - The desire to establish
and maintain friendly and warm relations with
others. 3. Need for Power - The desire to control
others, to influence their behavior, or to be
responsible for others." Bill Clinton is used as
the case study for these motivational theories.

Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society. Johnson initiated numerous economic programs which would collectively be identified as the "Great Society". The nation was in an economic decline and the Vietnam War toiled on the minds of the citizens. Johnson's intent in creating the Great Society was to lessen poverty by creating new jobs and strengthening areas of the economy which were weak. His war on poverty would, for all appearances, be successful. It would be a short-lived success, however. The Great Society would soon be revealed as taking a heavy toll on American economics.
