Write a three-page, double-spaced paper in which you explore the differences between the federal government candidates running in this election. Paper submissions must be made on turnitin.com, through our Titanium course site, AND as a hard-copy in class. All papers must be stapled, and must have your name and CWID. Your paper should accomplish each of the following: Using their respective official websites (from Titanium), define what the Democratic and Republican parties stand for, and identify what issue(s) are most important to you in deciding which party you will be supporting in the General election (and explain why coherently and logically).

Discuss the impact of political processes on policy content in context of the preceding statements.

It is difficult to assess the independent effect of public opinions on shaping public policy. Public policy often differs from national opinion polls, and the Constitution contains no provision for national referenda on policy issues. The public does not have opinions on many policy questions, public opinion is unstable, and decision makers can easily misinterpret as well as manipulate public opinion. Public policy is more likely to conform to elite opinion than to mass opinion. Discuss the impact of political processes on policy content in context of the preceding statements. Respond to at least two of your fellow students’ posts.

What is liberty? Provide a definition and at least one example.

LibertyIn Lecture 1, we explored how “liberty” was interpreted by the Founders of the American Constitution. These Founding Fathers were influenced by political philosophers who argued that liberty is always at risk, and because of that risk, liberty must be protected, not just by the leaders of a nation, but also by the citizens.While our founding fathers realized government was necessary to protect the citizens from criminals and outsiders (Lecture 2, comments about the King of England), they were concerned with amount of power the government should be given. To ensure that the people maintained power, the first Ten (10) Amendments (also called: The Bill of Rights) were added.For this week’s assignment, write a 500-750 word essay addressing each of the following questions:What is liberty? Provide a definition and at least one example.Why does it matter? Explain what you think the citizens of a nation might gain or lose through their liberty.What is your personal responsibility to protect it? Provide examples of what you can do, what you should do, and what you must do.In modern times, do you think Americans have gained/maintained liberty in the way the Founding Fathers described it in the Constitution? Why or why not?As in all your weekly written assignments, be sure to tie your writing to the readings for that week. You should strive to demonstrate to your instructor (and to the rest of the university) your full understanding of the course concepts being addressed.
