    Samons to be a really engaging lecturer and I really enjoyed listening to what he had to say about Plato’s critique on democracy. Professor Samons begins his lecture by asking the question: why do Americans love and aggrandize democracy so much‚ but Plato criticizes it? This was the same question I had throughout Book Eight. It seems that our entire goal as a country is to spread democracy to the rest of the world and to find ways to make ourselves more democratic than we already are. But‚ why spread something

    Philanthropos‚ the anonymous author of Antifederalist No. 7‚ wastes no time in making his argument against the ratification of the Constitution. His main argument is that the adoption of the Constitution‚ as it stood at the time before ratification‚ would lead to a civil war.

And although some of us have complaints with what the government is doing‚ most of us believe that our voices are heard loud and clear‚ if only we would be caring enough to say anything. Yet I believe there are pros and cons to our "democracy"‚ that although there is representation‚ powers that we cannot control keep it from being what some would call total democracy. And to its credit‚ it

    I believe in band. Band is one of the single most important aspects of my life. Band shaped the person I am today and will continue to shape my future. Band picks me up when I’m feeling down and makes the good days even better. It is a place to escape and get lost in music. I have been in band since sixth grade. My intentions were to play the trombone but my father told me “Trombones are for boys” so I ended up playing the trumpet. In this case my father was completely wrong. Almost of the
