Political inactivity on the part of young Americans stems from one fundamental source -- a general cynicism of the American political process. This disdain for politics is further perpetuated by a lack of voter education and a needlessly archaic voting procedure that creates barriers to voting where they need not exist.

After reading Dog Whistle Politics by Ian-Hanley Lopez, I became disgusted. I was with some disbelief that there were such a thing as dog whistling and how politicians use it to get votes. Most of this dog whistling tactics involves racial slurs. So I decided to do some research to see if any of the current Presidential Candidates of 2016 fell into this category.

I looked at all of the Republican Candidates polices and statements that were stated in debates, speeches, interviews, and social media sites. Unfortunately I found a candidate that was notorious for dog whistling, this Republican Candidate was Donald Trump. When it comes to Trump’s statements in debates, speeches, interviews, and social media sites a lot of negativity is involved around immigration issues in the United States.

The political climate today is increasingly becoming more turbulent as Republicans and Democrats volley for superiority in Washington. The two parties are becoming more polarized by the hour, and this is affecting the ability of the government to move forward and pass legislation and continue to improve America.

They should be listening to what their constituents need and want. Today Republican senators are using filibusters, scare tactics, and even entire news networks

Although these two articles have many great arguments the author Michael F. Cannon, in his article entitled “A “Right” to Heath Care?”, depicts the holes in these agreements by describing the difficulties with declaring health care as a human right.

Pure and Simple Politics is centered on the American Federation of Labor and its role in politics. Greene discuses how the AFL began to dabble into politics, specifically elections, and how this deed ultimately led to an alliance with the Democrats. Greene’s purpose is to dispel the idea that the AFL rejected getting involved with politics, rather strategizing in ways to enhance the economy.

The book is broken into 3 main sections, Part 1: The Rise of Pure and Simple Politics, Part 2: The Strike at the Ballot Box and Part 3: The Retreat from Popular Politics. Greene’s purpose in writing this book is to dispel the long time belief that the AFL did not take part in politics and she argues this point by giving a clear description of Samuel Gompers and the AFLs activities.

The doctor and his patient portray a troubled encounter that is subject to discussion. This short story reflects real or plausible issues comparable in real life. One example of such an event in Brooklyn when a construction worker filed a lawsuit against a hospital for subjecting him to a rectal exam against his wishes. According to his lawyer, the man begged,”please don’t do that’’ as he was held down, and he punched one of the doctors before being sedated and examined without consent.
