Snowden vs. Citizenfour: The Story of an American Hero? Snowden and Citizenfour are films that attempt to retell the story of Edward Joseph Snowden. A man who was fed up with over extension of power in the government and wanted to show the citizens of America just what their government was capable of and how their privacy was almost non-existent.

The formation of Congress was most likely the first act of collective action before the official constitution was drafted. Two opposing sides, one the heavily populated states argued for a legislative body based on population. And…

Much like a house, the US cannot hope to function if its states are asunder. As a response to this problem, the Founding Fathers created the Articles of Confederation. The Articles marked a leap forward to a stable government. Giving more power to the state governments was done in order to preserve the notion of…
