Abstract
This paper discusses how Clinton's impeachment trial and Davis's recall share the dubious honor of being considered two of the most embarrassing moments in America's political history. It discusses the two incidents and how they reflect the worst side of American democracy.
From the Paper
"That Davis is being recalled by an overly zealous Californian democracy says a great deal about how the contemporary political process is, to a great extent, working on behalf of the people. Having given a less than acceptable performance since put into office, Davis is being forcibly asked to step down and allow another political contender to clean up the mess he made. While this alternative is not unusual in and of itself, the complete circus that has transpired since announcement of the recall is what has turned the event into a who's who and made California a laughingstock. Clinton and his morally questionable behavior, on the other hand, was solely responsible for reflecting poorly upon one of the world's super powers."

"THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD AMERICAN PRESIDENT: ANDREW JOHNSON
Most people, if they know anything at all about Andrew Johnson, know he was the first American President ever to be impeached, and that he missed it by only a single vote. In fact, the two books used for reference here, picture Johnson similarly, in lots of ways. First of all, it would have been nearly impossible for anyone to successfully follow the appeal of the martyred Lincoln. Yet, he was not at all like Lincoln- not in personality, in attitude, nor in his devotion to a strict interpretation of the Constitution. In fact, he seemed to be not so much for the slaves as he was against their masters. "He had become an advocate of the small farmers against the privileges of the large planters. He also shared the racial attitudes of most white yeomen. 'Damn the Negroes,' he exclaimed to a friend ..."

The writer takes the reader on an exploratory journey through the life of Samuel Chase and discusses the impeachment proceedings that he was subjected to. The writer ends the paper with the conclusion of the impeachment attempt.
From the Paper
"Mention the name Monica Lewinski and it brings immediate recognition. It is the name of the intern whom then president William Jefferson Clinton had an affair with. That affair and the disclosure of the affair led to a snowball of disaster for the president that ended in an impeachment. Mention the name Richard Nixon and it brings an immediate recognition of another former president who violated public trust. He was about to face impeachment proceedings when he resigned from the presidency. These are very famous cases but they are not the only cases of impeachment that have ever been heard in America. Many years ago, when the nation was still in its infancy there was another impeachment hearing. The impeachment proceedings of Samuel Chase occurred during the 18th century and provided a blueprint for future American proceedings."

"THE IMPEACHMENT OF ANDREW JOHNSON
The recent attempts to impeach President Clinton re-focused historians and politicians on the first impeachment trial of a U.S. President, Andrew Johnson, in 1868.
The widely held view that the impeachment was a political abuse of constitutional power and an attempt to make the president subservient to Congress is greatly exaggerated. It was reluctantly undertaken by representatives who felt compelled to defend their institution against presidential aggression (Stathis, 29).
The key is "accountability". "Among American presidents, Andrew Johnson experienced one of the major tests of accountability. His political future as well as the fate of several members ..."

Contents:
Reconstruction as Conducted by President Andrew Johnson
Andrew Johnson: The Making of a Martyr to the Republic?
Juggernaut Toward a Restored Union
From the Paper
"It was also the era in which American understanding of the law changed, and that change was responsible, along with the actions of President Andrew Johnson, for helping the Union remain intact when continued strong forces for a separate North and South still held sway.
Spaulding makes an essential point for understanding Reconstruction, and one that is particularly apt concerning the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. Spaulding notes that "Although the modern legal profession has its roots in the same time period (legal formalism, education in law schools rather than apprenticeships, Socratic instruction, bar associations, large firm practice, and a distinct brand of constitutional conservatism all emerge in the 1870s), historians of the legal profession have largely ignored the relationship between professional organization and lawyers' experience of the Civil War and Reconstruction" (2005, p. 2001+)."

Abstract
This paper outlines the follies and negligence of the presidency of George W. Bush. It cites several mistakes that he has made while in office, but at the same time argues against his impeachment. The paper suggests that impeachment would only result in a further decline in the American people's ability to trust their leaders and it expounds on these points.
From the Paper
"Imagine a hypocrite. Imagine a coward sending thousands of people to their deaths to do his biddings that were established on false claims. Imagine a man who can blatantly lie to the masses but never admit he was wrong. Now imagine a country that would elect this person to their highest position of power. Twice. President George W. Bush has done several things wrong in office aside from claiming there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. He has also destroyed a budget surplus from the Clinton administration, altered the meaning of habeas corpus, and handled the most devastating natural disaster in recent years extremely poorly. Even though President Bush is guilty of all these atrocities on the American public, the House of Representatives should not bring forward articles of impeachment. Doing so would only result in a further decline in the American people's ability to trust their leaders."

Abstract
Examines the role of this President (1865-1868) in Reconstruction, his struggle with Congress over federal-state and North-South relations, enfranchisement of ex-slaves and causes for his impeachment.
From the Paper
"JOHNSON, RECONSTRUCTION POLICY AND IMPEACHMENT
This research paper explores the degree to which President Andrew Johnson's conduct shaped Congressional reconstruction policy toward the defeated Southern states and whether that conduct made him deserving of impeachment. Both by his substantive approach to reconstruction and the defiant manner in which he challenged the prerogatives of Congress, Johnson frustrated and impeded the will of the majority in Congress and embittered a hard core of Radical Republicans. The impeachment of Johnson reflected not only a partisan political clash, but also fundamentally different approaches by Johnson and his Congressional opponents to federal-state relations in the North-South context and to the enfranchisement of newly freed slaves. Johnson's conviction in the Senate was defeated by one vote which ..."

Abstract
The paper examines Benjamin Ginsberg and Martin Shefter's "Politics By Other Means," a well-documented analysis of contemporary American politics. The paper discusses how, as politicians were unable to win decisive victories in electoral battles, they had to develop new methods of fighting; law suits and media scandals. The paper looks at the impeachment procedure during the Clinton administration. The paper contends that the Democrats should not propose impeachment of the current President Bush due to the negative effects long term investigations have on administrations and on the general public.
From the Paper
"Due to these practices in politics, there is a considerable low voter turnout because politicians do not make a considerable effort in bringing out the vote. By making politics by other means, politicians lose voter's support and transform American politics in a very negative way. Politics of institutional combat "undermines the governing capacities of the nation's institutions, diminishing the ability of America's government to manage domestic and foreign affairs, and contributing to the erosion of the nation's international political and economic standing."(Ginsberg and Shefter, 1990)."

Abstract
This paper explains that Princess Diana and President Clinton exuded considerable charm that helped developed their initial popularity with their public. The author points out that, in each case, sexual indiscretion on the part of one or both of the marital partners enjoyed a high public profile. The paper stresses that both Diana and Clinton devoted a significant amount of time to political or social causes close to their hearts.
From the Paper
"Still, no story has just one side, and Bill Clinton has done much to forward political and social causes close to his heart. One of these is the cause of disadvantaged black people. For his work, Clinton has earned the honor of being inducted into the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame. For his work promoting the interests of marginalized blacks not only in the United States, but around the world, Toni Morrison has referred to Clinton as ?our first Black president?. He was also the first White person to receive the honor of being inducted in the Black Hall of Fame. Rodney Slater, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation, introduced Clinton with the words: "Mr. President, you have given so many of us the opportunity to be the first Black this, the first Black that, and tonight we are going to give you the opportunity to become the first White inductee into the Black Hall of Fame.""

Abstract
The thesis is divided into eight sections that appear as follows. The first section investigates key concepts from Adlerian psychology that are pertinent to the analysis of Clinton's life. The second section explores major events from Clinton's early, formative years-events that an Adlerian analysis would indicate are critical for understanding how the former president developed his unique approach to life. The investigation also provides an exploration of Clinton's possible mistaken beliefs and their formation in his early childhood. In addition, the research examines Clinton's painful earliest recollections and how his interpretation of organ inferiority pushed him to over compensate in his life. Adlerian tools of birth order are used to examine how Clinton's position as an only child/firstborn within his family affected his unique approach to life. In addition, the research provides an exploration of how the painful experiences of childhood neglect, like those that are reflected in Clinton's experiences with his stepfather Roger Clinton, and his mothers leaving him at a young age to study nursing, might contribute to the development of what Adler characterized as neurotic tendencies. The writer also applies Adlerian insights to explain the role of Family Hero in Clinton's life and its later impact on his adult life and presidency. The seventh and eighth sections explore how such a brilliant leader and popular president could give his enemies the ammunition they wanted by continuous sexual infidelities. Finally, the thesis explores the accomplishments of Bill Clinton and the Adlerian principles ultimately helped him succeed.

From the Paper
"The examination of American Presidents has fascinated Americans for many years. In recent years, the life of William Jefferson Clinton has been a particular point of interest. The purpose of this thesis is to describe, analyze, and discuss the private and public lives of Bill Clinton in congruence with the psychology of Alfred Adler. Assorted characteristics of Clinton's unique approach to life will be discussed and analyzed, and the study will recognize some political processes and outcomes. The discussion will not take a political stance on Bill Clinton; instead, it aims to recognize that his style of leadership was a result of his lifestyle. In order to describe and analyze Clinton impartially through the lens of Adlerian psychology, the thesis will identify all facets of Bill Clinton's character. For this reason, the thesis will evaluate the difficult circumstances in which he was born, and both the good and negative aspects of his early family life. Additionally, the thesis will reveal that although the former president had major struggles to overcome he managed to more often than not embody the crucial Adlerian qualities of equality, balance of power, gender equality, cooperation and social interest."

Abstract
This paper describes the Clinton?s presidency as being scattered with many successes and failures, none really outshining or overshadowing any of the others. This paper demonstrate that he pursued his social and economic reform agenda and extended his goals to the international stage to influence foreign policy and international politics. The author feels that his presidency will be marked by three major issues: His tarnished reputation as chief of state because of the constant scandals surrounding his presidency, the weakening of the presidency because of his impeachment despite his role as chief judge, and his revival of the Democratic Party as political party chief.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Clinton was often attacked during his 1992 campaign for his lack of inexperience in foreign affairs, but during his presidency, he promoted peace negotiations in the Middle East, some of which did end in important agreements and reached a peace agreement in Yugoslavia. He also reestablished diplomatic relations with Vietnam in 1995. Clinton believed that the role of economics would supplant politics as the main factor in international relations. Specifically, he aimed to fuel political change through international trade agreements in countries such as Russia, Korea, Vietnam and China, the last of which he was able to establish normal trade relations with by 2000."
