discussing this issue, there are different stances to take, beyond just “good” or “bad.” Politicians from all over the country agree for legalization, or argue to ban it. And each politician has his/her own opinion on the matter. In addition, Colorado's legalization shows what life with legalized marijuana would be like, and other states have been following their lead. Bernie Sanders is one of the more supportive politicians for legalization. He speaks about arrests due to marijuana, and how…

majority from being silenced by a political minority. Alan Blinder would not disagree with Locke, a representative government is essential but government itself has become to politicized and resulted in short term thinking and estrangement from politicians. Blinders main belief is that it would be most beneficial for the country for congress to allocate some of its technical policy making power to nonpolitical agencies to achieve long term success.

Heretofore, police had been intimately linked to citizens” (George L. Kelling. Mark H. Moore, Web) I think the point from this movement was to decrease the relationship with politicians, thus, stop the corruption. In this era citizens did not need longer to report crime by going to foot patrol police or police station, because the develop 911 for emergency call and any citizens could call to report a crime immediately. Furthermore…

Andrew Jackson was known throughout his presidency and modern day as a down to earth person who listened to the grievances of the common man because he defied the elitist norms in the White House and trusted the word of a common man over the word of his ineffective advisors, however, his opponents claimed that he acted more like a king than a president because he disregarded the democratic process and opted to instead put friends of his into positions of power.

Courage, courage is the ability to do something that frightens one. Courage is a word commonly confused with fearless. Fearlessness is in ways the same thing as foolishness.

Mississippi showed this in an instance when a black man was taken from jail and killed by a mob who initially had access to the man by “using keys provided by a deputy sheriff” (Walton 88).
