From the Paper
"In the 1980 presidential elections, Ronald Reagan trounced incumbent president Jimmy Carter in the biggest defeat of a president since Franklin D. Roosevelt overwhelmed Herbert Hoover in 1932. Though the American economy was in poor shape in 1980, the problems did not begin to approach the scale of the Great Depression, for which Hoover had been blamed. Nor can President Carter's ill-timed problems with foreign affairs receive all of the blame for his defeat. These factors played major roles in the election, but it was the sharp contrast between the candidates, in terms of ideas, images and campaigns, that resulted in the defeat of an incumbent president, and the election of one of the most popular leaders in American history. In all of these areas, Carter's failures were met by Reagan's successes. Carter was trapped by his 1976 campaign promises.."

Abstract
The paper provides a brief synopsis of the 1968 case, "Epperson v. Arkansas," which challenged the constitutionality of a state law forbidding the teaching of evolutionary theory. The paper outlines the arguments put forward by both sides of the case, details both positive and negative reactions to the outcome and describes the decision of the Supreme Court. The paper ultimately concludes that the ruling was just and in keeping with the letter and spirit of the Establishment Clause.
From the Paper
"Few areas of jurisprudence are more controversial than matters involving the proper relationship between religion and public policy. In fact, rarely has this tension been more apparent than in the controversial case of Epperson v. Arkansas whereby the constitutionality of a state law privileging creationism while banning evolution was brought before the Supreme Court. The statute in question which sparked the controversy was challenged in 1968 by Susan Epperson, an Arkansas high school teacher who challenged the statute as a violation of the Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution. According to the court record, Epperson instituted her action first in the Chancery Court of Arkansas, seeking a declaration from the court that the statute was void while enjoining the State of Arkansas and defendant officials from dismissing her from her job for violating the terms of the statute."

An examination of what a direct marketing campaign is and how it is implemented in practice.

Abstract
Direct marketing involves communication by a marketer to a prospect, without an intermediary, via a medium that supports some degree of interaction. This paper explains how this concept has largely merged with the idea of database marketing, which involves the establishment and maintenance of quantities of data about prospects and customers, and is exploited in order to enhance the probability of making a sale to each of them. It explains how direct marketing is intrusive, both in relation to the privacy of personal behaviour and the privacy of personal data. The degree of sensitivity varies greatly, depending on the person, the data, and the context.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Marketing communications are indirect, where marketer-prospect interactions are inhibited. This may be because the communication channel is one-way, as in the use of broadcasting media such as television, radio, newspapers and billboards. Alternatively, it may be because of the interposition of an intermediary of some kind that does not have a principal-agent relationship with the marketer, e.g. a shop assistant in a retail department store."

Governor Patton in Kentucky, 2002.
An argument for Governor Patton to step down as Governor of Kentucky due to unethical behavior.

Abstract
This paper will discuss why Governor Patton should not resign, on one opposing side of the issue, because of an ethical stance on the sexual harassment case, which Tina Conner had charged him with. In my point of view, the elements of the Governor's case are clear that he set her up with financial advantages due to his powerful position, and that he acted unethical by forcing a nursing home, which he financed for Conner, into bankruptcy. By presenting some outside references to prove this, I will show my point of view on the unethical behavior of the Governor, as well as the opposite opinions for his continuing role as governor

From the paper:
"From the first democratic election, politicians, journalists, and the public have decried the high cost of campaigns. It cannot be disputed that political campaigns rely on money from filing until the election and well beyond. From the beginning of the democratic election process, politicians, journalists, and the public have individually and collectively viewed with horror the ever-increasing cost of campaigns. Each election cycle sets a new record for spending. The critics cite the cost of presenting a candidate or issue but fail to take into consideration the increasing number of voters, distribution of constituencies, competition to spend, cost of new technologies, and inflationary pressures."

Abstract
This paper examines the promotional campaign of Watershed Awareness, whose goal is to bring water quality issues to the public's forefront. The writer of this paper defines a promotional campaign as the combination of various advertising, public relations, sales promotion and personal selling activities used by the marketer over a period of time to achieve predetermined goals. This paper explains why a promotional campaign is much more than just the advertisement seen on TV. The larger the campaign is, the more budget it needs and more people are employed to derive the outcomes for which the campaign was initially set up for. This paper details the various steps involved in creating a successful promotional campaign. In the case of Watershed Awareness, the first step is the necessity to clarify the specific purpose for the campaign. The next phase is effective communication which results in serving the functions of reaching the target audience, penetrating the audience's attention through the combination of timeliness, relevance and simplicity.
The third step in carrying out a promotional campaign is developing its theme, perhaps creating a noticeable insignia or logo. This paper also focuses on the importance of the internet in creating a successful campaign.
From the Paper
"The proposition is only the beginning, then the effective communication must be used serving the functions of reaching the target audience, penetrating the audience's attention through the combination of timeliness, relevance and simplicity, communicating the intended message and bonding the message to the brand name. Unfortunately, practice shows that the price of the advertisement does not guarantee its' quality. In order to do this, a promotion plan should include a well-articulated distribution plan which will drastically increase the exposure of promotion item. The mass media source choice to transfer the idea to the target group should be based on the preferences of the target group."

Abstract
This paper discusses the ongoing debate over campaign finance reform, explaining the major issues associated with the reform and some of the reasons for the disagreement about how campaign finance should be implemented. In particular, the paper focuses on the McCain-Feingold bill, detailing what it would change about campaign finance and why there is still opposition to the bill even though it is bipartisan.
From the Paper
"Campaign finance reform has been debated since Richard Nixon ran for the Vice Presidency under Eisenhower. In the wake of the Watergate fiasco, some meaningful reforms were made. However, there have been no major changes to campaign finance laws since that time. The time is ripe for change, but what kind of changes do we want? Do we want changes that make a joke of our constitution or do we want changes within the boundaries of the constitution? The major issue is soft money "was originally intended to go to party-building activities and get-out-the-vote drives but which increasingly has been used as a way to funnel large contributions to presidential and other candidates." (Hamburger, Tom "Campaign-finance debate jumps to center stage // There is widespread agreement that federal election rules need repairing. But there is no consensus on how, and there is lots of opposition to the lead." Minneapolis Star Tribune, 09-28-1997, pp 21A). However, the McCain-Feingold bill, the one most advocates support, would also limit advertising. The problem with that is any changes that try and skirt around the constitution, by limiting free speech, will most likely be thrown out by the Supreme Court. Until recently most congressmen did not look at finance reform seriously."

Abstract
This paper compares and contrasts the campaign finance laws of Montana and Florida, in an attempt to understand the primary differences between the legislative measures of the two states. Additionally, the paper discusses which campaign finance laws appear to be the fairest and most successful laws, in terms of their ability to control and regulate campaign finance issues.
From the Paper
"In comparison to Montana, however, Florida only allows all others in the community a $500 contribution. Children under the age of 18 are not allowed to exceed a $100 contribution, and no candidate can accept contributions from national, state, or county political party executive committee whose aggregate exceeds $50,000. There are still other limitations, such as limits on contributions from investment and law firms, and businesses (FL, 3).
"Furthermore, Florida limits the contributions from certain institutions of higher learning. According to the law, any educational institution wishing to contribute must first obtain a majority vote from the governing board of the institution. Without such a majority vote, the educational institution cannot contribute, either through monetary or through any indirect support (FL, 3)."

Abstract
This paper reviews the laws passed in California regarding campaign finance reform, the intended purpose of those laws and the results they have had on campaign finance.
From the Paper
"The current campaign finance system at the federal, state and local level undermines our democracy. Every day brings new revelations about wealthy contributors buying political access and favors. Voters are frustrated with a system in which their voices are drowned out by special interests. The governments of the United States - whether Washington, Sacramento at the state or, local city hall - must be accountable to the people as a whole."

Abstract
This paper compares and contrasts the election campaign of Democrat Julia Carson with her main opponent, Republican Brose McVey, and the election campaign of Republican Diaz-Balart with that of his main opponent, Democrat Annie Betancourt. The paper compares a variety of aspects of the campaigns, including campaign financing, platform and support, candidate profiles, media coverage, scandal, redistricting, and election results.
From the Paper
"McVey ran on a platform of economic growth and job creation, stating that Indiana has been sliding compared to the rest of the nation. McVey claimed that "there are many federal issues, such as funding for transportation and airport projects to changes in the tax code, which can have an impact on Indiana's economy. 'She's been in office six years... I haven't heard one word about what Carson is doing and advocating for.? McVey also cited Carson?s votes against President Bush?s tax cut package and against ?fast-track? trade authority. McVey?s views on political issues were much more conservative than Carson?s. He supported an amendment that would make flag burning illegal. opposed partial-birth abortion, and supported the right to bear arms. McVey also supported Bush?s policies on Iraq and taxes."

Campaign Finance Reform, 2002.
A discussion of the pros and cons of campaign finance reform.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper proposes a for and against argument on the issue of campaign finance reform. It examines how campaign finance reform has been raised as an important political issue for some time and there have been several recent proposals to deal with such reform. It looks at how these proposals deal with concerns about the growing amount of money needed for political campaigns and about how that money is acquired by candidates. It analyzes the McCain-Feingold Bill which addresses this issue and has been much debated for the constitutional issues involved. It evaluates how one side of the argument cites reasons why money is too prevalent in politics today and why the way campaigns are funded should be changed. It then cites the other side--that campaign funding is a matter of free speech and should not be changed in any way.
From the Paper
"For many people today, people who can be heard on talk shows across the nation, people who speak on television and campaign for change, people who refuse to vote or have anything to do with the political process--for these people and others, political corruption is such a fact of life that they cannot separate the idea of government and government officials from corrupt practices. One reason for this perception is the knowledge that politics is expensive and that running for office requires vast amounts of money, and people want to know what those giving large campaign contributions want for their money. Public funding is an alternative to the current system, and it would be enhanced further by caps on campaign spending. The scandal today, as numerous commentators have pointed out, is not what is illegal but what is legal, with distinctions made between "hard" money and "soft" money that serve the needs of the political parties and yet do not answer the concerns of the public."
