Nevertheless, the Mexican president considered Wilson’s raid as a violation of Mexico’s sovereignty and he therefore refused to assist the US in its expedition (US Department of State, 2009,

The men had broken into the Democratic National Headquarters. As the investigation continues, suspicion of the White House being involved in the robbery grows. For example, as Bernstein is doing research on the men involved in the robbery, he discovers that one of the burglars, James W. McCord was a security coordinator for the committee to reelect the president.

The assassins kill to get power and to take in away from the presidents who worked to earn power. “It is the story of this self-made man’s collision course of two of the most self-serving, self-centered self-absorbed egomaniacs of the late nineteenth century- Garfield’s nemesis, Senator Roscoe Conkling, and the assassin, Charles Guiteau.

Confident Relationships Built on Language Wouldn’t it be exciting to grow up learning more than one language? Imagine being in Japan for a week on vacation with a group of friends, and one day decided to go to the oldest zoo in Japan, Ueno Zoo. To get to Ueno Zoo, riding the bullet train was a necessity, except knowing which line was the correct line, when to get off the bullet train, or even which ticket to buy was a daunting task. Nobody in your group has the confidence to ask the workers for help since they don’t have the knowledge of Japanese to help them.
