The Long Road
Gabriella Demczuk
In his state of the Union address, President Obama called 2014 "the year of action", instead it was the year of inaction. With a contentious midterm election coming up for Democratic members of Congress, it was imperative that he do nothing to jeopradize their chances of winning; however, the more he tried to address the many problems facing the nation both at home and abroad, the more pushback he received, alienating himself from not only his party but the nation as well.

A boy looks out a bus window at a line of National Guard and police officers in riot gear in the Winchester-Sandtown neighborhood of west Baltimore, Md., on May 1, 2015. The death of Freddie Gray while in police custody sparked violent riots throughout the city raising awareness to another incident of police brutality across the nation.
