There are many differences in Democracy and Authoritarian governments.One being the difference in how the leaders of the govenment come into power.

After interviewing my Uncle Todd, I have seen what it is like to serve on jury duty from a first hand experience. It seems like a very cool and unique process that I think we are lucky to be apart of. When asking him how he felt when he received the letter in the mail calling upon him to receive jury duty he said, “I was happy to just get a day off work, but I still wondered if there was a way that I could get out of this.” As most people probably feel, my Uncle Todd was not too excited about…

In any given government, it is important to have checks and balances so as to ensure that no branch is more powerful than the other; a fundamental approach greatly expounded upon by the greatest political philosopher James Madison. According to Article II, Section I of the Texas Constitution, the government’s power is divided into the Legislative, executive and Judicial branches. The law-making branches consist of the executive branch, which has the governor, lieutenant governor and attorney…

they need to be on their choices for the government. I believe that people should be able to vote, since it is in the Constitution and they are American citizens but they should be educated/informed about voting. I think people who can vote in a election should know the persons goals are for when they are in office, if the…

options that are on offer, and the more electors there are voting, the more severe this cycling paradox becomes, making it of particular importance in the large and complex systems of today”. The particular moment that the article focus, in the election of presidents in France, where the most voted candidates from a first round of voting go into a second round run-off, the National Front leader Le Pen came a close second in the first ballot of sixteen candidates, only to lose by a landslide to…

The Executive Cabinet is perhaps one of the most import entities in the legislative process. The cabinet is the final step in the process, and is what determines if a bill passes or fails. But also, the Executive Cabinet can help determine which bills even make it out of committees and onto the docket. The Cabinet provides its Executive Agenda each year, which outlines its priorities for the upcoming program year. The Agenda is a valuable resource for bill authors, and can help determine what…

Animal Conspiracy Theory “Alright, so it is the night before the voting of the presidential election and the plan is that we will be breaking into the White House and hacking all of the voting systems to help Donald Trump win the election.” “No! I want Hillary to win the election. ‘Better Together!’ Duh!” “Well, that´s too bad, Jim. We already went over this. Everyone voted for Donald, so we are hacking it for Donald to win. I appreciate your autonomy, but stop being anti-Trump.” Welcome to…

today. But what is a political party? Consider a school board. One part of the community seeks to get a new sports stadium built for the district. The other wants renovations to occur for their theater. When the seats on the board are open for re election, the stadium supporters can come together to get a candidate that also wants the stadium on the board. The theater supporters can also come together and try to get their own candidate on the board. Now change the seat on the school…

I feel the this election is particularly stressful due to the increasing split between parties, and this year most notably, the divisions occurring within both parties. There are many republicans, including those who are well renowned, refusing to support their presidential candidate for the first time in their lives, compared to the shameless support and passion towards Trump that other republicans express. On the democratic side there is a clear sense of anger amongst the many Bernie Sanders…

James Madison and Alexander Hamilton opposed the idea of political parties. In fact, they wrote in Federalist papers 9 and 10 about how dangerous to the United States political parties would be. Our constitution was written with the idea that there would not be political parties. Another interesting thing is that our first President, George Washington, is the only US President to date that was not a member of a political party. It is important for members of Congress, which is comprised of the…
