1.    Interest Groups (Chapter 11). Choose any three currently active interest groups in American politics and describe the resources that they have, as outlined in the textbook. Investigate how these resources influence the ability of these interest groups to acquire what they want from the system. Provide specific evidence for your claims using the course text as well as reputable sources. Also, respond to the argument that interest groups do a better job of achieving their goals than do political parties. Finally, given your investigation of the previous questions, explain which interest group represents you the best. Is it a group that works on a specific issue, like gun control or taxes? Or one representing a specific “identity” group, like women or Latinos or LGBT people? Or is it a group organized around a partisan or ideological perspective?
