Description

1)The essay should be 3-4 pages in length, double spaced, and in Times New Roman, size 12 font.

2)Prompt: Alan J. Pakulas film All the Presidents Men (1976) depicts the groundbreaking investigative journalism of Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward during the Watergate fiasco. In the film, Nixon is the corrupt power that needs to be removed while the press or the fourth estate emerges as a check on Washington corruption. One scene shows Nixons unwilling cameo as he accepts renomination at the Republican convention while Woodward works away at his downfall. The irony conveys the message that ultimately, the American system works. One interpretation of the final scene, which shows newspaper headlines of the indictments of important men involved in criminal activities, suggests that Watergate was an aberration and that once the bad guys are in jail, normalityunderstood as American exceptionalism with its virtuous history, political system and valueswill return to Washington. Do you agree that overall, Watergate revealed a system that works or what is your assessment of this event? What was the immediate and long-term impact of the scandal? In your answer, consider American politics, government reform legislation, and culture in the post-Watergate period. Use the film, chapter 30 of your textbook, and Kutler’s article (Links to an external site.)to support your answer.

Provide a context or background (2-3 sentences) to the material you will be discussing. In the words of Dr. Darden Pyron, it should set the scene by providing the what, the where, the when, or the who of the material. There should be no argument here, just general historical data to set up your historical question and thesis statement.
State the historical problem (1-2 sentences). This should be the essay question reintroduced as the historical problem you will be addressing in the paper. Try to find a flow between the background information you provide and the statement of the historical problem. Why should we care about the historical facts you just discussed in the preceding background section of the introduction? What is their significance?
Provide your thesis statement for the paper (1-2 sentences). The thesis statement should have 2 PARTS. The first states your position or answer to the historical problem above, and the second provides a blueprint for the paper (or approximately three elements that will support your position in the body of the paper). The blueprint should directly correlate to the topic sentence or main idea in each body paragraph.
Body paragraphs and topic sentences: Body paragraphs should have topic sentences describing the main idea of the corresponding paragraph. They should echo one of your thesis elements.
