ESP is an acronym for Extrasensory perception. It is also called sixth sense and often relates to the idea of a "psychic sense" or a sense of the mind such as telepathy. The term was adopted by Duke University psychologist J. B.. Today, ESP is often considered pseudoscience by most, but it is still studied and believed to be true by others.

Ronald Reagan was the 40th president of the United States, serving in office from 1981-1989. He remains a divisive figure in American culture today; he is revered by political conservatives, while Democrats oppose his core tenants and policies. Reagan’s presidency embodied the “New Right,” and renewed social conservatism, a political philosophy committed to traditional values and social institutions. As president, Reagan escalated the Cold War, supporting anti-communist groups around the world with the goal of rolling back Communism. Reagan’s time in office is also defined by his economic policies. Commonly known as Reaganomics, the major economic policy objectives were to reduce the growth of government spending, reduce the federal income tax and capital gains tax, reduce government regulations, and tighten the money supply to reduce inflation.

Opposition to Reagan’s policies and values was a constant throughout his presidency, particularly in liberal circles and by left-wing activists. The most lasting opposition to Reagan comes from the music, particularly punk and hardcore music, from the 1980s. Reagan and his policies inspired a myriad of songs, leading up to the “Rock Against Reagan” concerts in 1984.

The American presidential election was held on November 6, 1984, in which Republican Ronald Reagan was elected to a second term, defeating Democrat Walter Mondale, a former U.S. vice president. Reagan won 49 states en route to amassing 525 electoral votes to Mondale’s 13—one of the biggest landslides in U.S. election history. The election was also notable for being the first time a major party had a woman on its ticket—Geraldine Ferraro, Mondale’s running mate.

Mondale made history by choosing as his running mate Geraldine Ferraro—the first woman selected by a major political party for its presidential ticket. At the time, Ferraro was a three-term congresswoman from New York, and it was hoped that her nomination would galvanize the campaign. It did initially, but the Democratic ticket was derailed almost immediately by a monthlong controversy over the finances of Ferraro and her husband, a New York real estate operator. The Mondale-Ferraro ticket attempted, without success, to find an issue that would resonate with voters. Reagan won virtually every demographic group except African Americans. His margin of victory over Mondale was nearly 17 million popular votes, the second largest in history; it was surpassed only by Richard Nixon’s margin over McGovern in 1972. His electoral landslide of 525–13 was second only to Franklin Roosevelt’s 523–8 margin over Alf Landon in 1936. Mondale carried only the District of Columbia (three electoral votes) by a convincing margin. He won his home state of Minnesota by a scant 3,800 votes (less than 0.2 percent).

The Bill Clinton and Al Gore campaign partnership began during the 1992 Presidential election when they unseated incumbent President George Bush. Bush had alienated many in his party by raising taxes, causing his level of support to be lower. This allowed Clinton and Gore to secure the victory. They won re-election in 1996 against Republican challenger Bob Dole. They won this election by a fairly easy margin as the economy had rebounded from the recession under Bush during Clinton's administration.

During their shared time in office, Clinton and Gore accomplished much, such as fixing the economy that led to their 1996 victory. The duo is also remembered for helping expand protections to the environment and public health. This includes measures to strengthen the Safe Drinking Water Act, becoming tougher on air pollution and smog emissions and clean toxic waste sites.

William “Bill” Clinton was the 42nd president of the United States. Clinton was born on August 19th, 1946, in Hope, Arkansas. He became the Attorney General of Arkansas from 1977 to 1979, Governor of the same state from 1983 to 1992, and then the President from 1993 to 2001. 

For his presidency, he wanted to end racial discrimination, continue the economic success, end big government, and boost education. Clinton did try to reform health care, but he was not successful. Expanding NATO and achieving a budget surplus are some of the accomplishments Clinton did achieve during his presidency. 

In 1998, he was impeached in the House of Representatives, but found not guilty in the Senate. He publicly apologized for his private, extra-marital actions with Monica Lewinsky on national television, but his approval ratings did not go down.

On November 6, 2018, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley was elected to represent Massachusetts’ 7th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, making her the first woman of color to be elected to Congress from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Like many in her district, Congresswoman Pressley has endured numerous hardships throughout her life, and it is because of those experiences that she remains a dedicated activist who’s devoted to creating robust and informed policies that speak to the intersectionality of her district’s lived experiences.

In January 2018, Pressley announced her challenge to incumbent United States Representative Michael Capuano in the 2018 Democratic primary nomination for the Massachusetts's 7th congressional district. Pressley was endorsed by The Boston Globe and a local chapter of the hotel and electrical worker union, Grassroots movements including Democracy for America, Brand New Congress and the Justice Democrats supported Pressley. She campaigned with the slogan "change can't wait", and promised that she would bring "activist leadership." In the September 4, 2018, Democratic primary election, Pressley defeated Capuano by a margin of 59% to 41%. She won the general election unopposed.
