What areas of Public Policy & Administration are you most interested in and why?

the paper is about: The objective of this assignment is for you to reflect and think critically on your future directions in life, and how an MPPA degree will positively impact your employment and life endeavors (volunteer work, community work, etc.). The concept of “vocation” does not only refer to one’s occupation. It can also be thought of as one’s “calling”, that is: What is the broader understanding you have about yourself as part of a larger community? And, what gives you priority when choosing options in your work and life? Or, others ways to think about your vocation might be: Why get an MPPA? What areas of Public Policy & Administration are you most interested in and why? What are some of the public sector / community issues you are working in and why? You do not need to answer all of those questions in two double-spaced pages, use what questions work for you as inspiration. **If you have already written a vocation paper for one of my other courses, please take time to reflect on your growth since the last paper. Separately, make an additional effort to lay out your research interests.

Define (that is, “operationalize”) the concepts of intelligence versus information.

Read the 10-page report titled Information Sharing, Dot Connecting and Intelligence Failures: Revisiting Conventional Wisdom, by Russell Travers (2009). https://www.nctc.gov/ 4-5 pages APA format ravers argues that information sharing in general has improved significantly since the attacks of 9/11. He proceeds to deconstruct many popular arguments made by others claiming that intelligence gathering and information sharing, as practiced by entities in the United States today, are flawed. He also discusses legal, policy-based, and regulatory obstacles that impair reasonable intelligence and information collection and processing.After reading this piece, complete the following:Define (that is, “operationalize”) the concepts of intelligence versus information.Do differences in these terms matter?How might either be easier—or more difficult—to share with other agencies?Also consider if some levels of government or sectors of society might be more or less amenable to sharing information. (For example, private sector entities that own and operate critical infrastructure upon which the nation or communities rely might hesitate to share proprietary information that makes them less competitive, economically. Is their reluctance reasonable?)Research, summarize, critically evaluate, and report at least 3 of the significant information-sharing problems and challenges (and key agencies) reported in the 9/11 Commission Report.For each of these challenges, use or dispute at least 2 of Travers’ main arguments that he makes in his paper to explain or justify these challenges.Make certain to connect Travers’ arguments to the report’s challenges that you select.

Has this demographic change and mobilization of potential voters that would benefit Democrats taken hold in the state? Why or why not?

The film makes a big point of discussing Texas on the cusp of a sweeping demographic change, with the political force of Texas’s Mexican-American population- much more likely to be Democratic- resulting in the Democrats in Texas nominating oilman and banker Tony Sanchez as their candidate for governor in 2002, the first Latino to run for governor on a major party ticket. Democrats also select Dallas’s first African-American mayor, Ron Kirk, as the state’s first major-party black candidate for the U.S. Senate. How successful were the Democrats’ “dream team” of Sanchez and Kirk in the Governor and U.S. Senate races? What were the limitations of their appeal to other segments of the state’s population, beyond the usual Democratic constituencies of African Americans, Latinos, and women? Has this demographic change and mobilization of potential voters that would benefit Democrats taken hold in the state? Why or why not? http://www.pbs.org/pov/lastmanstanding/
