One thing I know about the president is that he is elected using an undemocratic process. That process is meant to defend against the people electing ridiculous people to the office. 

One thing I know about the Vice President is that he or she is the tie breaking vote in the senate. They're important sometimes but most times they are there to back the Pres up. 

The Cabinet is made up of "experts"  across many fields and are there to instruct the president on different issues facing our nation  ]]> 2019-02-25 18:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/xy1163/koyff62eufmw/wish/335031053 All the bills that you have written or introduced to congressional committees. xy1163 https://padlet.com/xy1163/koyff62eufmw/wish/346240135 2019-03-28 16:46:27 UTC https://padlet.com/xy1163/koyff62eufmw/wish/346240135 The Sports Equipment Basket Act of 2019 xy1163 https://padlet.com/xy1163/koyff62eufmw/wish/346245277 Student will place the balls inside the Sports Equipment basket during the class, balls in the classroom but not inside the basket will be confiscated.

2.I think that I am in the correct political party now that the game is over, but I think I am close to first page party but not exactly a first page party member .

No I don’t think the process of passing law is too hard.
20b. Because if the process is step by step, we can make sure that the bill can be passed.  In my opinion the process is need to be slow the slower the better,  it goes without saying.
21.  One law that I wish it could be passed, is my “the black act”.
21a. I think this law would be good for the classroom is because so that we can commemorate the black history month when we don’t learn or talk about black history in Black history month.
22. I think Emma’s “stay on top of your work” bill need to be change.
22a.  I think the “stay on top of your work” bill should be changed, because student will get there a grade drop if there is no late homework, there might be reasons for late homework they might be absent, and they still get their grade drop. I agree with the idea of making up points but not the idea of no late homework. I think there can be late homework but they get half of the points off every day they don’t turn it in .
23.  I don’t get a lot of fun, because we still got bills to vote on, bills to create, even though we don’t have homework we still got work to do. Also I think this game is not all about fun it’s about learning about how the government works.
