The end?
Article Abstract:
The US Senate impeachment trial is scheduled to end, and it is clear that the events that occurred should not have happened, but they could happen again. Congress is divided, the presidency diminished, the prosecutor is too powerful, and the media aims to locate scandal wherever possible. There should only be an impeachment process when the people and both main political parties see the president as a menace. President Bill Clinton should have resigned, but this was not the will of the people. Clinton has been careless and has squandered his authority, and it is unlikely that he will really show repentance.

Joe Lieberman, Brutus or Moses?
Article Abstract:
Senator Joe Lieberman is the Senate's only Orthodox Jew, and he sees his religion as important in answering questions about his origins and the way he should behave. He initially criticised President Bill Clinton for having jeopardized the accomplishments of his administration, but he also argues that he sees Bill Clinton as a good person with the morality to continue in his role as president. Lieberman's initial speech was influential in losing support for Clinton, and frank discussion is difficult when such publicity is given to Lieberman's views.

The Bill Clinton nobody knows
Article Abstract:
The US has elected a man that it knows little about to be the next president. Clinton's policies may sound good, but the question is, does he have the ability to implement those policies. One of Clinton's character flaws is his quick temper.
