Pre Election Project

Over the past month you have been learning about the "party" system in the U.S. You understand the basic philosophies of the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. You have been reading about the conventions and platforms of both parties, and you have been following the issues.

This week during class, you will be discussing those issues which are important to you in your groups.

Groups 1(R) & 2(D) will form "party" statements about the issues.

Groups 3(r) & 4(d) (the undecideds) will form questions or statements of doubt concerning your important issues. Remember you favor (like) one party but have some doubts and are making questions for the other party.

You will post comments according to your group numbers during computer time on the next day.
