why can't all election ads be nice like this one? i think ads like this would be much better then putting your opponent down. this one is showing the people who support meg. people's votes can be swayed simply by seeing who supports what candidate.

Teacher Interview

i interviewed a teacher by the name of Mrs.Whatts. She is a family friend that I have known since i was little. She thinks that public school kids are the kids who need the better teachers, because the kids benefit more. Lots of the kids that attend public schools come from families that don't have a lot of money. She thinks that they are the kids who appreciate the experience more. She also believes in a strict class room environment. She thinks to get respect you have to be strict with your students. She doesn't give much homework, she thinks kids learn the most while they're at school. She also believes that kids parents have a large influence on if the student is motivated to learn or not. She believes the learning comes from if the student's parents motivate them  to do well. A classroom that makes learning fun is always more beneficial to the student's learning. She thinks they learn the best doing activities. She teaches 5th grade, so she deals with younger students.

After the class discussion on SB 1070, i realized how much it's effecting people. In class people were telling countless stories about people they know who the bill would be effecting. I think they need to work on the legalization process, so that it doesn't take massive amounts of time and make it more consistent so that there is a set amount of time. I thought the discussion went really well and everyone had good arguments. I think that many people are still undecided on the bill. I know i am among those people. I thought the discussion was a success and i learned a lot about the bill and the arguments both sides have on it.

Violent Quran burning protests leave 11 injured in Afghanistan

September 11, 2001

"The planes were hijacked, the buildings fell, and thousands of lives were lost nearly a thousand miles from here. But the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were an attack on the heart of America.

And standing here in the heartland of America, we say in one voice

We will not give in to terrorists;

We will not rest until they are found and defeated;

We will win this struggle  not for glory, nor wealth, nor power, but for justice, for freedom, and for peace"

--Tom Harkin
