Abstract:
The rhetorical presidency encompasses all the ways a president communicates and acts. These rhetorical elements of the job are not prescribed in the Constitution and as a result it is the presidents themselves who help shape the cultural understanding of presidentiality, of what it means to be president. When President Barack Obama participated in a "Slow Jam the News" comedy sketch on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in 2012, he took the rhetorical presidency to a place it had never been before. This choice established a new genre of presidential rhetoric that President Obama would rely on throug

Abstract:
African American Studies<br>Ph.D.<br>This dissertation examines President Barack Obama as a symbol and his rhetoric through an Afrocentric analytical lens. The problem that prompted my research was the current process (and future probability) of President Barack Obama's image and legacy being drastically revised from the current perceptions held by most who observe him daily. In this study, the researcher utilized an empirical, symbolic, and rhetorical approach to conduct an Afrocentric data analysis. This process included a review of the foundational terms and concepts utilized to express the

Abstract:
Humorous jokes and pun that we see through social media and television are more and more influential to the current political debate. How can a politician turn this into an advantage? This dissertation tries to analyse the interaction between humour and politics. Humour has been an important part of rhetoric since Socrates and Aristotle, and analysing the legacy of presidents like Reagan and Clinton, it is arguably possible to affirm that their popularity was fostered by their characteristic use of humour in public venues. Looking at Obama’s speech at the 2016 White House Correspondents’ Dinne

Abstract:
During the 2008 Presidential election, questions concerning Barack Obama’s religious views arose. Specifically, the controversy surrounding Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, caused some people to wonder how Wright’s theology may have influenced Obama. This project investigates Obama’s religious views and examines several forces, including Wright, which influenced his theological perspective. Wright bases his theological perspective on the works of James Cone, a significant figure in Black Liberation Theology and a mentor to Wright. This thesis compares and contrasts Obama’s religious per

Abstract:
Barack Obama’s victory in November 2008 was a historic moment when the themes of ‘hope’ and ‘change’ he had promoted during the campaign came to fruition. His election as the first black US President fitted the conservative narrative of a postracial US society in which race no longer had a significant influence. This thesis argues that Obama’s presidency punctures the illusion of a postracial society by examining a series of real and political controversies around race that occurred during the 2008 presidential campaign and his first term. The controversies selected display various levels of s
