Vocab/ reflection

I believe that this is the year the youth vote because the news article states that one of the only things keeping Barack Obama in the race for becoming the incumbent is the youth vote. I also believe this is the year the youth become constituents because this country needs a progressive leader like Barack. I know Barack Obama will be a good president because he is a conservative candidate and I know he will veto bad bills and unfair ideas that would only benefit one party ,and approve referendums like lowering the age to have suffrage to sixteen or seventeen. I agree with Shanelle's comment about Barack's speeches and it makes me want to watch more speeches made by him.

Mock election reflection

In this mock primary election I was part of the Mike Gravel team. I learned alot of things like the difference between democrat and republican, and I also learned that only Republican and Democratic parties are in the primaries because they are the only two parties that have been president, so if the Independant and Liberal parties ever become president they will get alot of funding.

In the mock election I was an "expert" on Mike Gravel's view points on health care. My grooup didn't win, but it was a fun experience because I got to know how it was like in the primaries.
