•    From the readings introduced in the e-Activities, discuss a strategy that you would implement to persuade one of the following people (you choose) to go along

appropriate citations.
o
•    Majority Leader Reid
•    Speaker Boehner

“Partisan Legislation.” Please respond to the following:

•
Take a position on whether you believe that partisan legislative politics is good for our form of representative democracy. Support your position with materials from

the textbook. Then, suggest what should replace it. If you feel nothing should replace it, state why and support your reason with materials from the textbook.
•    Some people argue that intense partisan competition forces each side to be a watchdog for the other, thereby achieving stability and balance. Others argue that

this highly partisan environment leads to a paralysis in policymaking and detracts from tackling society’s most important issues. Analyze the influence, you think

partisan politics has had on the sorts of public policies that are enacted- or not enacted- by Congress. Does the partisan balance of Congress matter in terms of the

policies it enacts? Why or why not?
