Vocab Quiz.
For the article that i read was about how young men and women have been voting in barack O bama. I htink that a lot of young men nd women vote for him because he is a liberal person. I think that they also vote on him because he is not conservative like other delagates that have run for president he has something that attracks young men and women to listen to what he has to say. I also think that more young men and women are voting on barack obama becasue he is not evangelical like other candidates. Young people also vote for him because he reaches out to all the young men and women to be constituent so that there voice can be heard. Barack obama is trying to have all the voters to get out there and vote adn be involved on what is happening today and not take there suffrage away from them.

Who's rocking the youth?
On the video that i saw it talked about young voters who dont vote and how half of the young voters dont even make it two steps into voteing. In this video it also talks about how the presidential candidates have to turn on myspace and youtube and tv channels like MTV to count on there vote. On the video it also talks about how yooung people just started to vote because of the terrorist attack that happen on sep.11. In an Iowa presidential contest only 76 percent of the young voters only register to vote and 93 percent were older men and women.
Presidential mini project
For the mini project that we did in Ms. Golub’s class I picked Senator John McCain. The issue that I picked on that McCain was border security. What I did was that I did my research on what were his thoughts on boarder security and what were going to be his actions if he were to be elected for president. Some of his thoughts were to tighten security for the entry of cargo. He would also improve the penalty for people that hire illegal immigrants.
When I research all of my notes it was easy in the beginning because I already new what web site I was going to go to find all of this information. The only problem was that I only stuck to one web site that helped me but not a lot so if I would have gone to other web sites I think that I would have had better notes.
When I was presenting them up in the class when we were doing the presidential pole I was not confident about what I was going to say but then when I got up there I was a little more confident about what I was going to say if I was asked any questions. I think that I did good I don’t think that I did bad but I also didn’t do good so I feel like I was in the middle.
