Politics

Hello all. Welcome back!
Blocks 6 & 7, you have a quick blog to write about posted below this one and then come back to "Politics."

Today you will not actually post, you will word process and print off a copy to hand in by the end of class.

I want you to begin by telling me what your thoughts are on this presidential election. Who would you consider voting for? Why? What issues are important to you and how does where your candidate stand on them support your ideas about him/her? If you do not pay any attention normally then consider this a research project--you must complete. This is not a choice assignment-even if you do not 'like' politics. :-)

Please search out candidates positions online. Look at their web sites. Look at the news sites and search under 'politics' to understand their positions and sometimes to compare what they say they believe and what they actually do. Look to see how they have actually voted on issues to see if they walk their talk.

This is a preliminary project for our elections on Thursday.

Enjoy!
Mrs. Gaboury
