4.1: What’s Going On? (Week 4)

A big part of the thrill of government and politics is the open discussion of politics—and you’ll be doing a lot of that here. Specifically:

1) Find an ONLINE news article about U.S. politics and/or the U.S. government that interests you, and read it.

2) Go to the DISCUSSION BOARD forum called “What’s Going On? (Week 1)”

3) Make a new thread, and make its title the article’s title.

4) Paste the address of the news article in your thread, summarize the article in at least 100 words in the space provided, and explain why this article is relevant to us as students of the U.S. government.

4.2: Discussion Forum: “How important are interest groups, anyway?”

Start with your opinion on this subject, and answer this question in at least 100 words, using specifically-cited material from Chapter 6 to make your point.
