The Potato Epidemic Summary
The Potato Epidemic

One fine morning in the Kingdom of Sandwiches, SandwichKing and Sandwich, his pet, were going for a walk. Suddenly, green potatoes, “The SWAT,” came out of nowhere and asked a million questions about mashed potatoes? Then suddenly, as fast as they had appeared, they disappeared.
“Who was that?” asked SandwichKing, “And what do they want with mashed potatoes? Whatever.” Then SandwichKing and Sandwich continued on their walk.

“It’s from a fire,” one said, “and we should put it out!”

“What should we do?” asked SandwichKing.
“You should go on a search most shudder the thought of, the journey of a lifetime, to find The Intense Potato!” The room was soundless (again).
“Where can The Intense Potato be found?” SandwichKing said.
The old man turned and pointed to a cave in the distance that was very far off.
“Okay, I’ll go,” said SandwichKing, and he left.

“This will take forever,” moaned SandwichKing. “How much longer until we’re there?” He looked up and he saw he was at the entrance of the cave. Oh, he thought, and he went in with Sandwich.
“Where are we?” he said. Then, in the distance, he saw a bright light.
He went to it and saw a glowing potato. “That must be The Intense Potato!” he assumed, and he went closer to the

    Tyranny. Something that has torn apart nations and civilizations for centuries. No wonder our founding fathers worked so hard to inhibit it. James Madison, the father of the constitution, wrote that power in the hands of one, few, or many is the definition of tyranny. The existing constitution, The Articles of Confederation, was not working for the young America. There was no chief executive, judicial system, or a central government to unite the states. After just separating from a tyrant king, the framers of our constitution wanted to create a strong defense against tyranny. The systems protecting our government against tyranny is federalism, separation of powers, and balance of powers.…

    In 1839, Charles Darwin wrote “It is remarkable that the same plant should be found on the sterile mountains of Central Chile, where a drop of rain does not fall for more than six months, and within the damp forests of the southern islands” (Chapaman). He was speaking of the potato, and its ability to adapt to a variety of climates, from the semiarid to the tropical wet. Potatoes also have high nutritional value. They supply every vitamin and mineral that a body needs except for vitamin A, vitamin D, and calcium (Chapaman). In the past, they have been eaten for the purpose of protecting against diseases such as scurvy, tuberculosis, measles and dysentery (Chapaman).…
