The fact that “facts” no long alter views causes a serious problem not just for the media, but for library professionals as well.

Electoral College The Electoral College is the indirect election of the President of the United States. We, the people, vote for the president which determines the popular vote, but we don't truly elect the president, it just selects the electors so THEY choose the president. That is the second-part process of choosing electors. The first-part process is that the political parties in each state select electors.

There are three ethical principles that are the most important for officials to excel in the field of public administration. These principles are ranked below from 1 being the most important to 3 being important. Demonstrate personal integrity (1) There has not been much discussion about the code of ethics in the past administrations than in Trump Administration.

Every four years on Election Day, millions of Americans flock to ballots in every state, anxious to cast their votes. Who could blame them? After all, voting is a very important part of our democracy, especially when it comes to choosing our next president, since it will be him or her who represents the people of our country.
