World History
The next step in the course project is to develop a script that you will use to record the narration for your presentation. Include headings for the slide number. Your final presentation should have 5-8 slides (not including title slide, conclusion slide, or references slide). Here are a few tips:
- Address all requirements for the content.
- Balance the amount of content for each slide. If there is too much content on one slide, try to break it up into two slides or consider where you can be more concise with your wording.
- Include citations where needed (e.g., quoted material and paraphrased/summarized ideas from a source that are not common knowledge). Note: When you get to the recording phase – you will need to read your in-text citations aloud, but you do not need to read your references slide.
Looking Ahead
Practice reading their script now so that you will be ready to record by Week 8. You may use PowerPoint or another method (mp4 file) approved by your instructor.

BASED ON:
Hillary Clinton was the only female candidate to governance next to her husband, Bill Clinton. As evident, she was the single lady who got to rule in the 20th and 21st centuries. She wanted to make the United States powerful in the economy, not just politically. She started working on the economy in the earlier days, and then she stepped towards the military gains of the states. This not only worked, but it also created havoc among the nation to have come under the light of a smart lady. The government and the people at first were not willing to believe, but she gained the trust of all. She worked on the affordable care act for the children and helped them dearly. She stood up for women’s rights under the violence against women act. Meaning, she stood up for all acts and rights and made sure that they are implemented. As far as being a US senator is concerned, she stood between the war of Russia and the US and made them sign a treaty. She promoted peace, harmony, culture. She was the first lady who stood for the Copenhagen Climate change Accord. All of this not only helped in helping the children, with their lives, education, etc. it helped the country with better people, better economy, better military respondents, peace, and harmonious culture. She is greatly loved and supported by 74% of the world’s stats. She has 487.2K followers just on Facebook .
Although things are quite positive, there are a few people who won’t agree with this. This is mostly because people have different opinions and mindsets, depending on their different personalities. Thus, there are always critiques and opposers available. Due to Hillary Clinton’s majority deeds that were good in their own way, she managed to accomplish the support of the majority just by being a senator or an assistant to the president himself. She managed to play a great role in the economy of the United States. Even though in previous elections, she lost from Donald Trump, but she is still an influential politician more than him .

Parry-Giles, S. J. (2014). Hillary Clinton in the News: Gender and authenticity in American politics. University of Illinois Press.
The article talks of the authenticity difficulties that have faced the former first lady-turned-senator-turned presidential candidate and now an influential figure in the 20th century. She is a woman in the spotlight who has been termed by some political analysts as “inauthentic” as the article implies. The fact that Hillary Clinton is a woman and the representation of what women can do in politics, then it is clear that issues of gender and stereotyping must have arisen at some point in her life. The article provides a central critique of Hillary Clinton which is helpful sediment for every leader and thus it will help in putting my leader into a mirror for examination.
Edwards, J. L. (2011). The 2008 Gendered Campaign and the Problem with” Hillary Studies”. Rhetoric & Public Affairs, 14(1), 155-167.
The article explores how 2008 was staged on gender instead of sound manifestos and plans for the citizens.

Ritchie, J. (2013). Creating a monster: online media constructions of Hillary Clinton during the Democratic Primary Campaign, 2007–8. Feminist Media Studies, 13(1), 102-119.
The process of politicking is thought to be a clean deal but deep inside it involves a lot that is mainly played behind the curtains. Every new day in politics is like a game of Ace and thus any person can lose if they are not keen. The media has been so instrumental in active politics and almost every great leader in the 20th century has walked in these shoes for a while. The author point into the different impacts the media can have on shaping the present and future of a leader. Ritchie gives the destructive and constructive version of the media. Hillary Clinton has been a presidential candidate in the previous presidential election, she used online media by a great percentage. The article talks about a monster that can be created through online media. The article is viable in the sense that most of the American politics in the recent past has involved high online presence. It will help in the study by bringing in some of the moves Hillary Clinton made through the online media and their effects on her as a leader and even to the American nation.
