The Confederate State of Mind: This paper
examines the political culture of the American South. After looking at the
theoretical basis of the culture with the three themes of racism, religion and
rebellion, empirical and anecdotal evidence is shown through the historical
flow of political change. The one-party Democratic system, the realignment of
the 20th century and the rogue presidential campaigns of Strom Thurmond and
George Wallace are also dissected and scrutinized from a cultural standpoint.
The Politics of Deception:
When Governor Bill Clinton campaigned for the presidency in 1992, health care
reform was at the top of his domestic agenda and the country was demanding
health care reform. Between the presidential election of 1992 and the
congressional election of 1994, the public turned against the idea. This was
seen in the news coverage of the issue and the change of the main issues. The
concentration went from the problem of the uninsured and the cost of coverage
to the potentially high taxes and government control over hospitals and
doctors. The special interest involvement in altering public opinion is the
subject of this paper.
