    Electoral college is a process that is set up by our founding fathers in the constitution; it is a “compromise between election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens” (U.S Electoral College). Electoral college is an example of indirect democracy; therefore, we do not choose our president directly. Thus, electoral college is not democratic.…

    The type of primaries that should be operating in North Carolina is an open primary not a closed primary. The reasons North Carolina should operate on an open primary is to enable voters in both parties to vote whoever they favored the most, allowing voters to vote in opposite parties, and reduces stress when going through the voting process since most of the voter ballots will include both parties’ leaders instead having leaders assigned to the voter party. On the side note, North Carolina should not have a law that requires voter I.D. since its violating and discriminate minorities to be able to exercises their right as an American Citizens. It should be easy for American voters to go to the polls and fulfill their duty as an American.…

    The Presidency as a whole has changed in many ways throughout the course of history; specifically, in the relationship between the president and the public. The Constitution is vague when it describes communication of the president: a president must say why they veto a bill, and they must inform the public on the state of the union (Ellis 82). President George Washington had the task of establishing how the president would interact with the public. During the early days of the presidency the President communicated seldomly with the public; this is because the president was supposed to be held at a higher standard than the public, and they were supposed to communicate with Congress. Washington worked towards having the office of the president…

    The Democratic Debate was really good. I honestly enjoyed watching it time just flew by. After it ended I just wanted to keep watching more. It was so refreshing hearing people talk about the real issues in this country, like the economy, healthcare, education, and corruption. Unlike the Republican Debate which mostly focused on Planned Parenthood, Donald Trump, and Iran.…

    What if I were to tell you that something in the constitution was actually unconstitutional? The Electoral College is, and there are many more reasons it is a flawed system of electing our president. As it stands today, electoral votes only matter in a few states and some states do not matter in the grand scheme of things. Besides that, we have recently had a president elected who did not win the popular vote. This president has made a number of controversial decisions, and many call for him to be impeached for a large variety of reasons.…

    Over the years the Electoral College has been proven to be outdated. People wonder constantly if their vote counts anymore or, if this method is affective any longer. There are three main reasons why the Electoral College is outdated and should be abolished. The presidential candidates only pay attention to the states with the most Electoral votes, we also have a larger and more educated population then when this was originally set up, lastly it does not seem as if your vote really counts since there have been at least four occurrences where the president with the popular vote has lost the election.…

    The system of electing our president has been fairly consistent throughout the past 50 years and one thing that has not changed since our constitution was written is the use of an electoral college to elect the president. By using an Electoral College voters do not directly vote for their next president, instead they submit a vote that is then tallied by the electors and whichever party has the most votes at the end gets all of the Electoral College votes from that state. The use of an Electoral College has been the topic of a lot of debate in recent years, especially after the election in the year 2000 in which Al Gore won the popular vote, but failed to become president because George W. Bush won the electoral votes. There are people whom favor the use of an electoral college and there are people who think that it should be abolished and that voters should be able to directly vote for their president. For my paper I want to present both arguments, each side’s pros and cons, and ultimately whether or not I think we should or should not change the use of an electoral college.…

    since people who hate him truly despise him and those who like him really like him. This candidacy seems to divide more than it connect and that’s something that truly scares me. I don’t like that people are getting violent over someone not wanting Trump in office and vice versa. It’s truly a scary thing. This election will not only effect the millions of Americans, but also people like me, the fifteen year olds who don’t get a say in the election. Since, I am under eighteen I can’t vote, this makes me have to put my trust into the adults of America. I have to hope that they make the right choice and so this fighting that I see on the news, and the divides that are happening from this scares me. There is power in knowledge though, so I guess I would rather know what’s going on as compared to not knowing. Although, I do hope that the choices made by the people of this country, of this place I call home are correct. I myself don’t care for Donald Trump and don’t want him in office, but again, I am going to hope that if he is elected, the people of America made the right…
