1.  Why will Manchin's role change in 2015          turning to a democrate

2.  What is currently the most important legislation that Manchin is working on? gun control

 i think Abortion is the biggest problem in america. and i dont think it is right i think if you can spread you legs to make it then you can raise it. not kill it and i think the doctors and the mothers doing it should be put in prison for murder. 

 i also think Death Penalty is another problem i think people that deserve it like murders, rapist, and people like that should get it. but i also think that people that dont deserve it shouldn't get it like druggie, robbery people and stuff of that nature.

and i also think the Cost of colleges is way to high. i mean like if you want to go but cant get enough money then the school should help you get in it. but the people that are just gonna go and goof off in the school shouldn't get to go to it.

and next to last Aid for natural disasters  i think the government should help you when the power goes out. not jack up the prices. and i mean most people put there last little bit of money in to that food and then the power goes out and then they are left with nothing.

 

 and last Overcrowding of jails in America i think they should let the people that  try to do good like the drugs and the people that don't deserve to be in there out. and keep the people that to in there to rot.

and i would be a democrat. cause i would want to change the way people. act and do stuff. and how poor some people are. and help the homeless.

Assignment 8/22/14

       I believe that three biggest problems are economy, drugs, lack of exercise. Are the biggest problems in the U.S.  And I think that congress should do something bout them.

        Economy is on this list because, the people in it don't do the rules. And when the don't then every one get mad and start shooting or stabbing people. Obey the law and you'll be fine.

        Drugs are on the list because, people use and abuse them. And when they run out they and up killing people of them. And it don't help with them making it legal to do them. Don't legalize them and people will stop killing each other.

 

        And lack of exercise is on the list because no one wants to do any think. And them making everything on electronic is a big reason why people don't to any thing. And they can stop this by making people do some labor. 

       And that is what I think bout the three biggest problems in the U.S. today. And I think it all is cause no one wants to do any thing.
