Location, Location, Location
Not to long ago the American Political system under went a major transition. One of the many controversies that are still shadowing this transition is the acts or misacts of the former President. Just recently he announced that he had chosen a location in Harlem to be used as his post-presidential office. Most people reacted to this decision by saying he's deceiving African-Americans in Harlem to cover up his burdens when he left the White House... the pardons or the gifts that were taken from Whitehouse. The article I will be analyzing is by Jay Nordlinger about the recent move to Harlem by Ex-President Clinton. Nordlinger is an editor for the National Review who's been covering the Clintons for a couple of years. Published by The Weekly Standard: a very conservative magazine, Nordlinger tries to explain the recent move as an attempt to put out the fire that have erupted the Clintons since leaving the White House. From what I perceived reading this article the main
issue Nordlings is trying to prove is that whether our former president is using African-Americans to talk to White people? Meaning does Clinton do what he does because he wants to help the African-American society or just to improve Americans impression about him?Nordlinger undoubtedly states that the ex-president misleads the African-American society and he does everything for a purpose: to get out the many controversies that follow him day to day. What is Jay Nordlinger bias? One that's obvious is all his critics about Clinton are distrusting. The article even relates Clintons with Fidel Castro. gathering he was welcomed to Harlem by many cheering for him. The Weekly Standard: February 26, 2001. Sometime in 1960 Fidel Castro publicly changed his expensive midtown hotel a hotel in Harlem to show commonality with the people there. It's hard to plainly state my point of view in this issue because the only way to surely examine this matter is to know the former president personally and know his true goals, which is almost impossible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------**Bibliography**Nordlinger, Jay. One good example is the fight in keeping Affirmative Action, I strongly believe that Affirmative Actions has helped many African-Americans to step in to many opportunities to prove their value and Clintons administration was in support of keeping Affirmative Actions. So Nordlinger is comparing the people that are cheering for Fidel Castors with the same people that welcomed Clinton to their neighborhood and evidently stating, "don't be fooled". So second option would be to follow past trends and explain his present actions. To gain such support this administration must have done something, of course some editors like Nordlinger have dedicated their careers in criticizing Clinton but the true fact is something has been done right for the black community to acknowledge it.
