We started class by studying our Europe maps. We then went into current events. We talked about Hurricane Sandy. It is a very large storm. Lots of kids are out of school today. Hurricanes don't normals hit that part of the U.S. because of the colder waters. What would happen if Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both got 269 electoral votes. The election would go to the House of Representatives. Each state would get one vote. Republicans would pretty much have the majority of the vote. The Senate has to chose the VP. They would ost likely chose Joe Biden. We are one week and one day away from the election.
We then went back into our debate. Our next topic is Plan to Help the Economy.
Plan to Help the Economy-
Romney- Believes creating jobs will cut the deficit. Because you have more people paying taxes.
Obama- Help strengthen the middle class so that they could spend more and help the economy. Raise taxes on the millionaires.
Gay Marriage-
Obama- Believes in gay marriage. 1st president to support it. He believes that they should be able to ger married.
Romney- Doesn't believe in gay marriage.
Then we went into blog discussion.
We all had varied opinions on who won.
