The true face of America
Article Abstract:
The impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton and its outcome will not have a significant long-term impact on political life in the US. These developments have merely given an insight into modern-day America, indicating that power and money can be extremely influential and that the sexual harassment laws are compromised. It has been made clear that mistakes in the past do not prevent someone becoming a presidential candidate and that almost any indiscretion can be overcome.

How Starr cornered the President
Article Abstract:
Independent prosecutor Kenneth Starr has subpoenaed President Bill Clinton to testify in the Monica Lewinsky case. Starr's decision suggests that either his investigation has failed to produce sufficient evidence and Clinton's testimony is a last resort or that there is third-party evidence that must be put to Clinton. Lawyers working for Clinton have no way of knowing whether Starr already has evidence of a crime.
