For the past week, we have been researching about different candidates and issues. My candidate was Mike Gravel and my issue was the war in Iraq. I really enjoyed this mini project because I learned a lot about both the democratic and republican candidates. I learned a lot about both parties because of our mock debate we had Monday. What I found most shocking during our Republican debate was that not one of the candidates running wanted to get out of Iraq. All the Republican candidates wanted to bring even more troops to Iraq and spend unnecessary money on more weapons. After researching so much on Iraq and learning about how many have died and been permanently injured it shocked me that they wanted to stay and bring even more troops to Iraq. My candidate’s view on my issue is very similar to my view on the issue as well. This was a great mini project because I learned a lot about the voting process and about different issues.
