Jennifer looked up what the USA Patriot Act is, and when and why it came into effect. Tanya looked up previous bills that proposed to ban the USA Patriot Act. Emu looked up the effects that the USA Patriot Act has had on people.
Team Xi Owns All,
We researched the law about why drinking was 21 years of age originally and debated about how at 18 you can sell alcohol but you can't drink it.

Since we do not know yet the format of how the bill should look, we are plainly researching fur use. We are looking at all perspectives of how fur is being used in clothing products and also situations, when people are against the ban of fur. We are recording facts as of now.
We are for prohibiting Fur use.

THE ORIGAMI GROUP researched the pros and cons of cloning. We also researched "How To Write a Bill" We learned that a pro of cloning includes cloning new organs for those who need it. Because there are thousands of patients put on the waiting list for a new heart or liver, cloning such organs could help reduce the rate of death from waiting for a replacement. However, on the downside of cloning, an example of a con would be abusing the power of cloning. Cloning is also very expensive, therefore many people do not support cloning. Arnold and Suneet are researching how to write a bill so we don't look/sound stupid when we present our beautiful bill. :)

The argument that our bill calls for age discrimination can be used against us. So in order to be prepared for that, we have researched the topic. (On the flip side, it could be argued that the laws on having a minimum driving age are also forms of age discrimination.)

OBAMA
My first reason for choosing Obama for president is because he wants change. Change to me is better because we test out new things and find what is best for us. He seems sincere about the promises and choices he is going to make will be for the better. Mckain is focused on continuing the war and thats not right. Obama is focused on ending the war, which i agree with. He is also very brave, i say this because he is an African American and he is running for president. There is a high chance many people will try to assassinate him. I think he is a strong person and many people can look up to him and already do. There isn't a doubt in my mind the US would be a better place if he were our president because i have that trust for him I believe he knows what he wants and what he is doing
My second reason would be, he can relate to many people. He can relate to many people of different ethnicities and genders. He has had somewhat of a hard life and he came this far and is doing something good with his life. That is something to look at and be proud of. It is extremely amazing because its different than tradition in a good way. He is an inspiration to many people, He is CHANGE and many fear this, but most want it. Alot of people are voting for Obama because he is black but i am not one of them. I believe he is truly educated and well aware of whats going on in the world, and he is finally going to make a difference. People like him are very strong mentally, and he can take a lot i'm sure.
My last and final reason to choose Obama for president is because his attitude. He does not walk around stuck up. He seems down to earth and well brought up by himself. He doesn't have a bad attitude and still stands talk when Mckain is snappy. I think he is the bigger and better man for his personality. He is not fake to me from how he presents and caries himself. Mckain seems very sketchy. He also cares about the middle class which is what i stand in. He is also focused on helping the poor. We would be very fortunate in having him as our leader i believe.

Obama!
One of the main reasons, I would vote for Obama is because his plan on healthcare. We need a plan where all Americans could afford the necessary health care they need. Right now, many Americans are having a hard time paying their insurance bills. This is a hard time for Americans to pay, knowing they high costs at doctors, and other economic issues are country is facing. Obama can help, by making the insurance companies cover most of the money, which can help many people. With this policy, half of the tension will be gone from families! This is tough, because I’m going to be going into the medical field, and there are people who still have to co pay before a check up. It’s expensive to pay for everything, its takes up too much money. I’m taking healthcare as a serious problem, because I’m going to have to be facing these problems as well. I don’t want to be in the same shoes as these Americans are, they’re having a tough time with all these medical bills.
Also, for economy issues I think Obama would do a better job. Many people think that with McCain, taxes wouldn't raise, but I think they are wrong. Taxes would actually be raised. One proof is that with the war going on, we will be spending much more money, and it will come from taxes. Also, we are in debt. And we have to pay that off, and that’s where McCain would have to higher the taxes. This is where I strongly go for Obama. This is because; I think he’s the right person to bring our troops back. The sooner the war ends, the sooner we will get out of this problem. Yet, it will take time but at least it should be done quicker. Our nation needs a change, and Obama is the right person who can actually help solve our problem.
Oh baby bama!
If I were able to vote, I guess I'd vote for Obama. Sigh, yeah just like everyone else. I'm not 100% sure why, but these reasons are good enough for me.
Education. Obama has this "Zero to Five" plan which educates kids before they go to kindergarten. He is also going to start voluntary and universal pre-school! Super! Obama will also help with college tuition with the American Opportunity Tax Credit, which will try to make the first $4,000 of tuition free for most students. This would have been awesome for me because, well, I am entering my college years and if this plan was in tact now, maybe I wouldn't have been so settled on a community college and actually tried to apply to a state or UC.
Health care. Many people today are living without it because of the high prices. Obama's universal health care coverage lowers the cost of health insurance. And what's pretty neat is that he's going to create a health care system for children. That's considerate of him! Ya!
Oh and then there's abortion. Let's say I'm a wreckless and irrisponsible teenager that got pregnant now. I'd sure like to abort it. I'm not saying, "Hell yeah I want to kill this thing living inside me!"It'd be hard but you know...I wouldn't want my baby to live a crappy and poor life because of me. I'd like to finish school and whatnot and become rich...THEN get a baby in me so I can raise it. If I were fetus-girl, I'd much rather be aborted than be born into a poor house with no poppa and starve. And thankfully, Obama man has my back on this. He supports the Supreme Court's decision on Roe vs. Wade. So I have the choice to do what I want.
I was hypothetically speaking earlier...I'm not trying to say that I'm gonna go about and vote for Obama, then get pregnant as many times as I can and then abort em. I'm not that heartless.

vote for barack obama!
The last presidential debate finalized my judgment about Barack Obama. He was calm and collective about all his responses and retorts. He seemed like a guy that I could relate to because he is a young politician wanting to make a difference in this world. McCain seemed to stumble a lot during the debate and he was always attacking Obama’s proposals and plans. It seems that all he can do is bad mouth other people instead of focusing on his own policies. It seems like he’s more fighting for himself than he is for US citizens. Barack Obama focuses on the little guy while all John McCain cares about are the old, the rich, and the white. He consistently mentioned Joe the Plumber as a means to relate to the American people. He seemed like he was going to help the small businesses by giving them a $5000 tax credit when that is not enough for anything. And Obama is right on the tax issue. The more you make, the more you should pay. And if you are making over $250,000 a year, you should have the money to pay more. That money needs to cover the asses of and trickle down towards the smaller and less fortunate.
The first reason I would vote for Obama is because he represents change, more so than McCain who is way too conservative for my liking. Obama really wants to see this country back on its feet again after 8 years of hell from Bush. I see a great determination in him and he has a lot of great ideas to turn this nation around. Another reason I’d vote for him is because he has a very experience running mate as opposed to McCain’s choice. Biden has a lot of experience in the Senate and he would be an excellent successor should anything ever happen to Obama. Having Palin as President would kill this nation. She’d make the national sport hockey and bomb abortion clinics. The US would be so vulnerable to foreign attack with her as President. She should just stick to governing her little state that has been under the nation’s radar until just 6 or 7 weeks ago. There is a high chance of McCain dropping dead soon too.
My last reason for voting for Obama is because he thinks of the little guy. He calls out to the middle class and thinks of them in his proposals. He wants to support the middle class and bring them up in society while McCain just wants the rich to stay rich. This is of major importance because I will be in that middle class during my college years and higher education, and I want good health benefits and insurance, the best education at low costs, etc. It is the middle class that needs the most attention because it is them who are struggling in this broken economy. The rich will stay rich, and even if they lose money they will still be rich. The middle class are the ones who are struggling in this financial meltdown from paying high gas prices to getting their homes foreclosed. It is imperative that we vote for Barack Obama who will help the people who need a leader to stand up on their behalf when no one else will. He will bring change to this country and turn this nation into the greatest nation on Earth once again. I vote for Senator Barack Obama for President of the United States of America.

senor barack
i would vote for barack obama. his views on abortion, immigration, and education closely relate to my feelings.
abortion: he gives women the right to choose what they want to do. if a women wants to have an abortion i think she should be able to. who is the government to say what a woman can or cant do with her body? maybe someone shouldve been more careful but at the same time babies come from rape, unwanted sex and accidental fertilization. barack supports extended access to birth control, more information and services that may reduce unintended pregnancies. his plans include more sex education, distributing contraceptives equally and offering education to rape victims on how to use emergency contraceptives. the thing i like the most is that he stands behind womens rights. i know if i got pregnant right now i would definetly turn to abortion. there is no way i could keep a baby im not ready for. so go obama!
immigration: he wants to 'fix the broken system'. i think the u.s. should let immigrants in. all theyre doing is coming here for a better life and more oppurtunities. its not like theyre coming and taking jobs. the only jobs they get are the shitty ones like working in fields and whatnot. i know for a fact that most, if not all americans would not want to be working in fields and doing garden work. they should appreciate the fact that immigrants come here with nothing and work so hard to make a better life for them and their fmailies. barack also says that of we can reunite families then why not? he also says that the immigrants have skills that our ecomony needs..aka farm skills. barack also wants to promot a better development in mexico. one thing i dont really like is that barack pretty much doesnt want immigrants here.
education: he believes in early education for infants..myself, not so much. i dont think infants should be educated becuase its not necessary. theyre babies maybe like 4 years old should be introduced to education but not little babies. i like his plan to make high child education affordable for families that cant really afford much. intervention stratagies to lower drop out rates is a great idea. we need people to graduate and without graduating they wont be anywhere. supporting english learners is nice of him too. bilingual education is really important and obama wants to make sure the schools make sure those students complete school. they should be teaching them and helping them succeed. college is important to me since i will start in less than a year and obama is saying that $4,000 will be given to college students [most families]. its not much but it definitly helps. covering 2/3 of public univeristies and even making community college tuition virtually free, these things will definitly help out alot of students who deserve to go to college.

Forget Democrats and Republicans... Go Libertarians!
If I could vote this election, I would not vote for Obama like everybody else here, but Bob Barr of the Libertarian Party.
I am not voting Bob Barr because of who he is, but what he stands for. The Libertarian Party's views and ideas are very similar to my own and I agree with the policies they have in mind. It is naive to think that they would arouse enough supporters to break America out of its two party system, however. Anyway, the Libertarians' policies include relaxing gun control laws, eliminating drug prohibition, limiting the power and sovereignty of government officials, and allowing more rights to the American people in ways that have proven to work well. Both the Democratic and Republican Parties are untrustworthy and have worked to create the giant government monopoly that exists in America today. Both of the parties lie and contradict themselves in the political nonsense they spew. It is because of the two parties that America is this deep pool of danger right now. The candidates for the parties aren't too impressive themselves. Despite what he claims, Obama is a pretty bad judge of character and is still inexperienced in executive matters. McRage is dangerously unstable and his campaign of lies and attacks on his opponent leaves something to be desired. Joe Biden is a man filled with gaffes and mistakes, talking way too much for his own good. I'm not even going to start on Palin. While Bob Barr is not the choice candidate for the Libertarians, he still stands for liberty and rights that Americans should have in the first place.
The Libertarian ideas for crime and punishment is one that I agree very strongly with. The system today has too many loopholes and injustice. Government officials themselves can easily get out of what they had done as long as it remains quiet, and they can easily bail out anyone they like from whatever crime they commit. Under the libertarians, this corruption would at least be curbed down. Criminals would pay any and all expenses caused to the victims, in addition to their sentences, and would be held entirely accountable and responsible for their crimes. The Libertarians would end drug prohibition, which creates unnecessary drama in the justice system. Ending the drug prohibition would allow the elimination of programs made just for keeping with that law, allowing more time and money to be spent on real, violent crimes. It would free up prison space devoted to drug sentences for robbers and murderers who should be in there longer anyway. Libertarians would relax gun regulatory laws and encourage the possession of concealed weapons, which would allow better protection and safety. The party would also kill the government regulated school system that is failing and allowing more felons into the streets. More personal rights leads to more personal justice.
Other issues addressed by the libertarians include the economy, foreign policy, personal freedoms, healthcare, welfare, and taxes. The party would eliminate the bailouts and government spending on the "free market" to the larger companies, allowing the companies to be held responsible for their mistakes. They would stop the dependency on aid from the US in foreign countries whose economies have been stumped by the interference of America. The party would end the faulty welfare system that creates dependencies and unfair taxations, and promote more productive ways to solve poverty, such as creating more available jobs. The Libertarians encourage private charities, businesses, and programs that would be more cost effective and limit the power of the government. Healthcare would be deregulated to allow cheaper and more accessible medication and treatment. Without welfare and all of these useless or ineffective government liabilites, taxes would naturally lessen and become less of a burden, allowing poverty to lessen as well. Most important to me, the Libertarian party would not place limitations on media and freedom of speech, and would get rid of the censorship that lets government regulate the information given and received. This is not Soviet Russia or Imperial Japan, this is the land of freedoms and rights. The Democratic and Republican parties only limit these rights and expand the jurisdiction and power of government while keeping themselves safe.
Only Libertarians can save America from the authoritarian tyranny that the government is becoming. He may not win, but voting for Bob Barr would at least confuse the polls a bit and maybe allow some political electoral blunder show itself and cause the American people to realize what they have almost subject themselves to.

( 30 S ) I would VOTE for........
Obama...
1) Tax cuts : Obama said in his numerous debates that he is for tax cuts in the upper and middle class. Where as his competitor says we should leave the rich rich and keep the poor poor. Obama has stated that our economy is at an all time low. It has never been this low since the Great Depression! He is rallying a proposal called business tax credits. What that is, is simply tax cuts depending on your salary. He stated that we need to help struggling homeowners. Not only them but low financial businessess as well. If elected he would make this his top priority. We need our people to be rich, so our economy can follow.
2) Health Care : Obama, along with Biden, both agree that health care needs a new approach with the people. Health care has become a major issue with those who are struggling on a steady income. The types of insurance have too many fall throughs and too many side effects. What i mean by this is that if you want a plan that truly helps you have to unacceptable choices. One choice is that you let the government choose your plan and increase your taxes. Or you make a plan but have an unreliable service and/or doctor. Without consent of your doctors, how can you bond and how can they truly understand your situation? With Obamas plan, doctors are chosen by the patient and become more friendly visits. You can trust your hospita more, and not get higher taxes. Costs for insurance were said to drop by $2, 500 yearly.
3) Education : There are a few problems with the way our educational system is run today. Bush left us with a system call no child left behind. A great plan in theory, with major flaws. Though it does reach out to those who feel like the government doesnt care, it throws us back economically. If we support those who are not from this country, how can get out of debt? The debt I speak of is the one we have as american college citizens. I care because i am about to be a college attendant so Obama is talking about my fututre. He wants to help show parents that financial aid is available and that they are here to help. He has proved this through his 0 to 5 plan for infants to children. Biden and Obama want to help working people out as well with affordable child care programs for the time challenged families.
...You call it procrastination...I call it boredom.

I would vote for Obama...
I would vote for Obama because...
1) I like his plan for the economic because he promised that every tax payer can get money back. He will give 95% of the working family and the middle class tax cut. A tax break for the people who don't have money now, so they can save money. He also provide tax credit for every company that is creating job in America. He had a long-term challenge to fix energy policy. McCain said he wants to let the rich people spread the wealth around instead of let Obama get the rich people's wealth and spread it around. I disagree with it, because the rich people never give their money out to help the others. Obama's running mate is better, he knows what the middle class need because he had experienced, so his economic policies would help the American middle class. Obama said he will no longer borrow money from China and send it to Saudi Arabia, the money should spend on other things that good for our country. He has policy to raise wages for middle class.
2) Obama has a better policy for education. He wants to reform the No Child Left Behind Act. He thought we need both money and reform. He said every child should ready to go to school, school need to get huge benefit. He thought that we should have new teachers and give teachers higher pay. The important thing is to make college affordable. He said he had meet many students who can't decide go to college or not to go to college because it cost a lot of money. They have to pay a lot of debts after they went to college and it would be a huge amount. He said so he will make the financial aid more easy to apply. The last thing for us to do is the Parents! Paents should show more responsibilities and help the students. I agree! So I think Obama can creata a better school system.
3) Obama promised he will bring fundamental changes. He wants college for every young person who wants to go and he wants to work for children. He believes a brighter day still ahead. He opposes the unfair trade policies. He said he will bring health care for all Americans. He will lower the cost of the health insurance. He also opposes late abortion unless it affects the mother's health. He thought the American economic needs a new direction. Federal government should step up to help the local schools.

Obama-Rama!
If I was able to vote this November, I'd vote for Barack Obama because then, I could say, "Obama for your Mama!" But since I'm not 18, and not eligible, I can't say it anymore. BUT I'd still vote for Obama because I am a supporter of the Obama-Biden Plan. Within this plan, I strongly agree with three major factors.
1. Support for the Working Class Family- Obama-Biden will create a new tax credit called "Making Work Pay". This will create tax credit of up to $500/person, or even $1,000/working family. It'll help relieve up to 10 million Americans of income taxes. Another aspect of the plan that I agree with, is the raise of minimum wage to $9.50/Hour. As quoted by Obama-Biden, " people who work full time should not live in poverty". If elected, Obama hopes to have this enacted by year 2011. Obama-Biden will also expand the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit. Obama-Biden believes that low-income families should be able to receive up to a 50 percent credit for their child care expenses. But the BEST part is, Obama-Biden plan to expand PAID sick days. Obama-Biden will required at least seven paid sick days.
2. HEALTHCARE!Obama-Biden believes that Americans are faced with two extremes too often. So thier new plan is to develop health care that will benefit every American worker. But if you are currently satified with your health plan, then nothing changes, other than the decrease of payment rates. The Obama-Biden plan will establish a National Health Insurance Exchange. This will provide a range of private insurance options as well as a new public plan based on benefits available to members of Congress. Thus allowing individuals and, or small businesses to buy affordable health coverage. So everyone will be able to recieve health care. The Obama-Biden plan will also be able to decrease the cost of a typical family health plan by nearly $2,500. They will promote public health services, and provide necessary screenings.
3.EDUCATION-As a highschool senior, my main priority is graduating, and preparing for college. And as well all know, college is a major money problem. I believe that in voting for Obama, his plans will provide college students with more support in financial aid. The application of financial aid is already confusing enough, and not being ableto fill it in completely will prevent students from recieving the money they deserve. I believe that is completely unfair. The Obama-Biden plan will simplify this process by just a check in a box on the tax form, allowing their tax information to be used, thus eliminating the confusing process of the seperate form. Another good aspect of the Obama-Biden plan is the American Opportunity Plan. The American Opportunity Plan provides college students an opportunity to recieve refundable credit that will provide the first $4,000 completely free for most Americans, and will provide two-thirds the cost of tuition at the average public college or university. It will also provide a completely free community college education. All of this money, for just 100 hours of community service in exchange. GREAT ISN'T IT?!

VOTE FOR OBAMA-RAMA!
Obama ma-ma-ma-makes me happy.
I would personally vote for Barack Obama if I was eighteen years old right now, because of his plan for people with disabilities, tax cuts, and his foreign policy.
Right now about 1 in 6 Americans have disabilities country wide, and will grow because of the wars American soldiers are facing in the middle east. In 2006, statistics says that people with disabilities have a three times chance of living below the poverty line. Let's pretend I am a quadriplegic, which is to say I am dude that has no arms and no legs, what can I do about? The answer is probably nothing, but Barack Obama has a say to this; Obama as president would make the USA sign the U.N. conventory on the Rights of Persons with Disablilities. This would be the first human rights treaty signed by the U.N. in the 21st century and a basis to respect rights to people with disabilities worldwide. I also like how he has a four part plan system to this. According to this four part plan, he would provide Americans with diasbilities educational opportunity, end the discrimination, increase employment with people with disabilities, and support independent, community-based living for Americans with disablities. Simple ways for helping me is that Obama and Biden will make a new tax credit to help cheapen college. According to this, Obama's Disabilities Plan Fact Sheet, this Tax Credit will ensure $4,000 of college education is completely free for most Americans . This pretty smart in my opinion, for it helps mostly everyone else. I beilieve everyone deserves to be equal, and that no one should be discriminated against, that's why I think we need some change.
Why Would I vote for Barack Obama? It's the Economy, stupid. Barack Obama says he will provide $50 billion to jumpstart economy. This I think would probably keep many, many americans from losing their jobs in this economic crisis right now. During the last presidential debate, they had an ongoing talk about taxes. Mccain kept attacking Barack Obama on this issue how he would raise taxes to Americans. I guess, this is too put this statement into those people that have brains of a sheep. Barack Obama had to repeat himself that he would lower 95% of working class Americans taxes. Only people who earn a considerable amount like $250,000 would be taxed a bit more. Obama's Tax- cut, even shown in Ads is three times bigger than John Mccain's plan. I am coming from a middle class family, and I am starting to see that taxes are playinga big part in paying our houses. It's getting to the point where it gets me worried, that i might go through bankruptcy.
Third reason why I would vote for Obama is because of Mccain's foreign policy. I know, John Mccain is a great war prisoner, but that does not guarantee a great president. I mean, Queen Elizabeth during the Middle aged Europe had no experience in war but she is considered to be one of the greatest leaders ever. John Mccain is kind of like the next Bush, he even said so somewhere, how he agrees with Bush 90% of the time. Spending $10 billion a month on Iraq is riduculous when you consider are economy is in horrendous condition. I think we cannot stop terrorism, because it is just like drugs, it is pretty much everywhere. Obama and Biden proposes a new strategy to withdraw and redraw troops, and would be less careless in getting out than when they came in to the war in Iraq. Obama says he would talk to other world leaders about global issues, and it would not matter who he would have to sit with. I still remembered when I was in 8th grade U.S. History, I saw a black puny man on television with his whole face covering the screen objecting to the War in Iraq initiation. My awesome teacher, predicted if there was going to be a black president someday it may be him. Now I think it's amazing how time flies and Obama is providing plans for the war, that may help our econmy also.

Obama
There are other reasons why I would vote for Obama other than the fact that he's black.
1. Education. I am still kinda lost as to exactly what he wants to do because it is really hard to trust newspapers considering that they may give information that is altered to make one candidate look better than the other, but the one that I like about his education plan is the Teacher Service Scholarship program. The program grants scholarships to people who plan on becoming teachers in exchange for teaching in high-needed fields or location. I personally like this plan considering that Science and Math are the highly needed fields and those are the two things that I would teach if I become a teacher.
2. Abortion. I may not be a woman, but if I was, I would want the right to choose what to do with my own body. Considering that women have just recently gained some of the rights men have, why not the choice to abort a baby? Obama supports the Supreme Court's decision on Roe vs. Wade, I may not completely approve of killing a "human being", but I believe that it is not my place to a woman what she can or can't do to herself. Like I said, I would want the right to choose what to do with my own body, whether male or female, or both.
3. Immigration. Only because it is mainly targeted at my people and because Jason and Wilson will get a kick out of it. From what I understand, Obama wants to make it slightly easier to become a U.S. citizen and he is also allowing illegal immigrants who have not committed crimes to learn English and return home to Mexico and try to become citizens the right way. Honestly, I think the people who are already here would stay or are already on there way to becoming citizens or are ready to go back home, but having the opportunity to stay is great. In reality it doesn't matter. If Obama does promote economic growth in Mexico then the majority of problems with illegal immigrants will cease to exists, considering the fact that those illegal immigrants only come to the U.S. to gain money and then go back home to there families. The option to become a citizen is nice and all, but just promoting economic growth in Mexico, a lot of the problems should be solved.

Vote For Obama
If I could vote in the 2008 Presidential election, I would vote for Obama because…
1. Education – For early childhood education, Obama has created a “Zero to Five” plan, which will educate infants before they are ready to go to kindergarten. He will have grants for states to implement this plan and eventually create universal pre-school. He will also provide child care for working parents. For K-12 education, Obama will improve the No Child Left Behind plan by changing the way students are tested to see if they are on track. He will also decrease drop out rates, increase funding for after school programs, and support college outreach programs. Obama’s education plan also involves recruiting more teachers by giving out scholarships that will aid them during college. New teachers will be trained by pairing up with experienced teachers. Obama will also help with college tuition with the American Opportunity Tax Credit, which will try to make the first $4,000 of tuition free for most students. He will also simplify the financial aid process, which confuses many families because it is complicated and time-consuming. Since I will be attending college next year, this issue is very important for me, especially since tuition fees have increased dramatically over the past few years.
2. Healthcare – Obama plans to use the current healthcare system to create affordable, accessible health care for all Americans. If people like their current health care plan, they can keep it and their rates can go down by $2,500 per year. If people don’t have plans, they can choose from new, affordable options. Patients will consult with their doctors, not their insurance company, regarding health related decisions. All Americans will be able to get basic benefits at fair prices. Everyone will also receive a tax credit for their premiums. Medicine will be more affordable by using generic drugs and safe, imported drugs. Obama’s plan will also require insurance companies to cover services such as cancer screenings. This issue is important to me because I will eventually have to pay for my own insurance. When this happens, I hope it will be at a reasonable rate that I can afford.
3. Taxes – Obama’s tax plan will bring tax relief for middle-class families and small businesses. Ninety-five percent of workers and their families will receive tax cuts. Workers will get a $500 tax cut, and working couples will get $1,000. Senior citizens, uninsured people, and families with children in college will also receive much needed tax cuts. Obama’s plan will also simplify the process for filing taxes by allowing many middle class families to file their taxes in under five minutes. Although Obama’s plan will require the wealthiest 2% of families to give back some of their tax cuts, it will only be a small portion. Obama will help fund this tax cut by cutting unnecessary government spending. With the current economic crisis, taxes are a major worry for everyone, especially middle-class families. Next year, my family will be a middle-class family with a child in college, so we could really use the much needed tax cut that we will receive. I would also like to get a job soon, and I would like to keep most of my hard earned money, instead of giving it away in taxes.
who i would vote....
Obviously, I would vote for Barack Obama. I would for him because:
1. Health care: Obama understands that people are paying mucho money on health insurances today. His universal health care coverage lowers some of the money that people have to pay. I like his heath care plan because today some people dont have health insurance because of the high costs. Everyone is trying to find the most cheapest insurance plan for their families yet none of the cheap insurance plans seem to be a good plan. Obama says that he will create a health plan for childrens since it's mostly children's insurance thats hurting the families' finance. With Obama's plan, families can have good insurance plan with good quality of treatments. With his plan, families can all have insurances and they don't have to pay a lot whenever they go to the doctors. Everyone can have a good health and not worrying about the money issues. They don't have to skip a doctors appointment because of the costs. Families can start putting their heatlh before money problems.
2. Education: Right now, the education system seems pretty mess up. Schools don't have enough budgets to provide the best education for kids. Schools are cutting down extra curiculums because of tight budgets. And colleges cost a fortune these days. Many students are giving up on their dream schools to attend community colleges because of money issues. Obama knows all these problems. He promises to increase education budgets and increase teacher salaries. He also promises to provide more extra curriculums activities and after school programs to give more better opportunities to children these days. Obama also will set up better scholarship programs for high school students going to college. That way families don't have to pay a fortune of their hard working money all on college fees and books and etc. I am completely for his education plan since i will be going to a college next year.
3. Tax cuts: Americans are working that crazy people now a days to earn as money as they could. However, the high taxes are taking away their hard working money! Obama says that he will provide tax reliefs for Americans. Again, I am totally for the plan. He promises to cut tax so that way americans can have money in their paychecks to pay for whatever they like instead of paying it all to the governments and etc. I am a crazy working person myself, and i love his plan because i want to see more money in my paychecks instead giving it to the governments and stuff. My own hardworking money after paying for taxes only have some left for me to pay for my high price school lunches! I definitely wish to have extra money for me to spend on things that i want. With Obama's plan I believe I can have some money for myself. Obama's plan for tax cuts will settle a lot of tight budgets for families, especially middle class families. His plan can help middle class families to use the money to help paying for their children's college fees. Then still have some left to spend on whatever they like.
Those are the reasons why i would vote for Obama. Besides McCain is too old to be a president. Also i dont want a person thats like a robot and a mom that don't know anything besides hockey to be our president and vp.

That way families don't have to pay a fortune of their hard working money all on college fees and books and etc. I am completely for his education plan since i will be going to a college next year.
3. Tax cuts: Americans are working that crazy people now a days to earn as money as they could. However, the high taxes are taking away their hard working money! Obama says that he will provide tax reliefs for Americans. Again, I am totally for the plan. He promises to cut tax so that way americans can have money in their paychecks to pay for whatever they like instead of paying it all to the governments and etc. I am a crazy working person myself, and i love his plan because i want to see more money in my paychecks instead giving it to the governments and stuff. My own hardworking money after paying for taxes only have some left for me to pay for my high price school lunches! I definitely wish to have extra money for me to spend on things that i want. With Obama's plan I believe I can have some money for myself. Obama's plan for tax cuts will settle a lot of tight budgets for families, especially middle class families. His plan can help middle class families to use the money to help paying for their children's college fees. Then still have some left to spend on whatever they like.
Those are the reasons why i would vote for Obama. Besides McCain is too old to be a president. Also i dont want a person thats like a robot and a mom that don't know anything besides hockey to be our president and vp.
Obama!
1.EDUCATION As a student about to enter adulthood, I feel that Obama's plan to create a new American Opportunity Tax Credit is one of the biggest things that affect me. Also, because I am just about to exit high school and enter college, my supply of cash is pretty low. So his new tax credit can help me by ensuring that the first $4,000 of a college education is completely free for almost everybody. Also, applying for financial aid seems a lot like a hassle, but Obama wants to allow families to apply by checking a box on their tax forms. This is a lot easy and not cause a lot of trouble for people to look for information and such. By allowing more people to get more money for college, those who cannot afford college but are brilliant can enter the world so we can benefit from it. Also, by supporting english languange learners, their knowledge can be spread to the United States and not only their home country. Another thing he's doing is rewarding accomplished teachers with a salary increase. This can entice them to stay and do what they are doing. Also, they can mentor new teachers so they can shoot to be as good as them.
2.IRAQ I think that the troops in Iraq have stayed there for too long. They should be able to come home to their families and allow Iraq to deal with it themselves. Obama believe that we must be as careful getting out of Iraq as we were careless going in. They will also attempt to reach a comprehensive compact on the stability of Iraq and its neighbors. He will provide at least $2 billion for Iraq's humarnitarian crisis. Barack also opposed the sending of troops to Iraq in the first place. This tells us he's on the opposite side of Bush and that is probably the best play we want to be right now. By removing troops, he can save lives that are lost for a lost cause. Also, money can be saved or diverted to a more effective way to help Iraq or our own country. Only so many troops can die until people start doubting Bush.
3.POVERTY I think that poverty is getting out of hand and things should be done to help people with it. It is pretty depressing seeing all these people on the sides of streets, begging for money or having dead looks in their eyes. Obama wants to help by expanding access to jobs. He wants to invest $1 billion over five years for methods for helping low-income Americans. He will also ensure that low-income Americans will have transportation access to jobs. This can help a lot seeing that the gas prices cost so much right now. Even if a person can find a job, paying for gas can take out a good portion of their salary. Also, the minimum wage increase sounds good. This can help the gas problem because $9.50 and hour can help a lot.

I would vote for Obama.
1. Health care: I believe that everyone should be able to have health care and go to the hospital whenever they need too. I also believe in universal health care because some people in the country can not simply afford it. It is important for every single person in the US to be able to walk into a hospital and not be denied. This topic is very important to me and I agree with Barack Obama with what he says he will do. Obama is committed to universal health care by the end of his first term. Simply have to elect Obama will ensure the whole country health care and not having to worry about paying for care. Health care is an important part of Obama's campaign and will ensure him voters. I agree on his thoughts about universal health care for the country. Everyone will never be denied health care if he is elected and I strongly support that. So now, people will never have to choose between paying for food or health care.
2. Preserving the Earth: I strong care about the Earth and the nature of it. I believe if that we keep going on as we are today, the Earth will slowly crumble and be destroyed. The Earth should be preserved and be taken care of because it will be the home of millions and billions of other human beings to come. Obama has sponsored and advocated for a legislation to end global warming. Global warming is a big problem in the world today. Global warming is destroying the Earth and Obama agrees. Obama also has contributed to the idea of having better cars for the environment. He is going to change the fuel aspect of the car and it can greatly impact the world. Without that awful smoke caused from the cars, there would be less pollution in the world making it a better place. Obama has some great ideas for changing the environment and world into a better place.
3. Education: Education is a very important thing in the world and everyone should have an equal opportunity to have it. Everyone in the country needs to have a good education in order to succeed in today's high demanding economy. Education is an important thing to me because it is the basis of life. Without an education, there is less job opportunities one can have and worse can be looked down upon. Obama has an education program that will make it more affordable and encourage young people to get a higher education. He will enable and make it possible to obtain the education they deserve. He will make it possible for underprivileged young people to go to college and be successful in today's world. I agree greatly with him because education is very important to me and to the rest of the world. Obama's plan for education will help millions of people get higher paying jobs. They will have a chance to do something different in their lives instead of turning to bad habits.

Obama!!!!
If I could vote, i would vote for Barack Obama. But because i can't, i can tell others why to vote for him. Now first of all a lot of people may think that i am voting for him because i am black and he is black. However this is a false answer and truely wrong answer. I am voting for him because he is young, he wants change, and wants a tax cut. I think age has to play a big role in being president. After all you do have to be 35 in order to be president. I think age is important in this election because his running mate is too old. If you are younger you have fresh ideas, you can connect with the young people and the more mature people because he is not too young, but not too old. I also think tat he has new fresh ideas as well. McCain is just following in the footsteps of the other president, alive or dead.
When Obama says he wants change he is not just saying that because he would be the first black president. He is saying that because he wants America to change with him as well. Some changes could be helping the people in Dafor. No other president has ever brought up that idea before. They have brought up the word Africa but not that one place, which needs special attention. Which brings me to another point, can people stop refering to Africa as a country, it is a continent. Which mean it is a wide range of land, that has many differnt borders that are called countries. He might be saying that is wants to help Africa because he is half Nigerian. Well that is fine with me. He also wants to change the way the Middle Class lives. He wants to give the American families in the world that are in the Middle Class stage. Maybe thats because we have to focus on the poor because they have no money. But we also have to focus on the wealthy because they could be doing something againist the law. He also wants to change the Health care system. He wants everybody to have some sort of Health care. He also wants the troops home from the middle East. McCain might not be like president Bush, but he has voted with him 90% of the time.
He also want tax cut for everybody that pays taxes. This is why you should not vote for McCain of McInsane. First of all he is way too old. I think 71 is too old to run a country. You are going to get too stressed, then you can roll over and have some sort of stroke. Another reason why you should not vote for McCain is because he is has been in a war. A war that was fought when i was to young to remember. Having said that, that mean he must still have thoughts on the war and that can take over him while he is president. I think he wants to wants the taxes to be raised. And he keeps on makinf up random people when he gives his speeches. Like "Joe the Plumer", if you are going to talk about some one use there real name or try to come up with something different. He is not a good speaker at all, when it comes around to the debate. He always trys to find aways to work around the question, but never answers it. Just like Palin she always wants to go back to the tax cut. They never stya on topic. VOTE FOR OBAMA AND BIDEN.!
OBAMA for life
One reason why i would vote for Obama is because he is very supportive in education. Obama starts working to help children right even before kindergarten. He and Biden have made up a "zero to five" plan that helps children targeted for preschool to be able to attend preschool. They are working to set up a universal preschool so that all children are ready to enter kindergarten. Obama is also offering a type of money relief for child care for working families so that they do not have to pay too much. Another positive suggestion that Obama offers is to improve the assessment tests by more than just comprehensive tests, but based on a student's personal progress. Obama wants schools to have a strong curriculum of science and math. He wants to ensure that teachers have degrees in math and science so it would help better the performance of the school's students. Personally, I am in favor of Obama because of his plan for college bound students. He is encouraging students to take AP classes and if the classes are not available in the school, they can request to take it some place else. He is also encouraging those students who are from low-income families to prepare for college. Lastly, he even supports schools that try and help those students whose second language is English. He is proposing that the school will be help responsible that they graduate on time.
Another reason why i would vote for Obama is because he has a really good plan to help the economy. Right now the economy is down because banks have been giving loans to lower class families who can not pay back the loans. As a result, banks started to close which make home prices lower than the actual value that it is worth. Also, investors invested in the loans that the lower class is getting, which hurt the economy more. Obama is coming up with a plan to make banks provide affordable short-term and small-dollar loans. He is also planning on giving families that filed bankruptcy because of medical issues money back so that they can get back on their feet. Another thing that i think helps me out, when i start working, is Obama's plan to raise minimum wage. He will raise it to a price that will be able to help a family live on basic needs according to how the economy is. That will help many families that have low-paying jobs and are living life from paycheck to paycheck. He is supporting small businesses to rise so that they can create new jobs for people.
Technology is rising and people need to be able to connect with it and be able to use it. Americans have a risk of being left behind in the new generation which would effect how businesses will be run and how students will be taught. Obama wants to keep the internet completely open because it is a great source to connect the people with what is going on with the government and other issues. Obama also wants to censor what children are able to see while still abiding to the first amendment. He will use to internet to help Americans as well as inform. If personal privacy is invaded, Obama is making it the business's problem and therefore to fix it. Obama's main purpose for making Americans aware of the advantages of the internet is to further their involvement in the 21st century. I totally believe that anyone who is not knowledgeable about technology is losing their chances of connecting with their fellow Americans. New technology involving science and math will also be elevated. Obama wants more schools/degrees to focus on math and science so that the students will be able to make new innovations to better the 21st century. And just by having the internet and other technologies such a success, more job opportunities are opened which will help everyone.
I'm sure McCain has many plans to help America, but i feel that Obama has more of a connection with my generation and future generations, which will help him in the long run if not in the present day.
