I need some help from you guys. I'll be posting this in the OoT too, because some of the responses I may get here (though colorful) I probably won't be able to completely use.
Anyway, I'm doing a report in my English class that requires interviews. This interview can be e-mail based (or you could just post your responses here). Though a real name and stuff would be preferable, if you like I can use a fake name for your interview (it's not like my teacher will go through the phone book looking for you guys or anything).
Anyway, the topic I chose was on "Bush Jr.'s effectiveness as president during his term in office." It's an argumentative paper, but I must approach all side of the issue in a non-bias manner, as well as choose a side to argue. I've got a listing of 12 questions I would like answered by both sides. After I've finished the rough draft, if you like I will e-mail you a copy for your approval (in the usage of your quotes that is).
I really appreciate you helping me out here guys and gals. I always like reading the political commentary here.
1) What are the responsibilities for a president?
2) Has President Bush lived up to those responsibilities?
3) How has President Bush's policies (be it economic, military, foreign or domestic, or environmental policy) affected you?
4) Have those policies that affected you been better or worse the previous presidents?
5) Do you believe that drilling for oil in Alaska will help resolve our current rising oil prices?
6) Was President Bush justified in entering this war with Iraq?
7) Should we peruse other countries that have WMD's with the same zeal we perused Iraq with?
8) How do you feel about the negations with Korea when they have brandished their weapons so clearly?
9) Do you believe the US should be concerned with its image to the rest of the world?
10) Do you believe your constitutional rights have been protected by our president?
11) Do you consider this presidential race "The lesser of two evils?"
12) Do you believe that those who joined the military are owned by the military?
---Follow up question---
Do you believe those who are in military service should die on command, without regards to who/what is being fought for?
Again, I really appreciate your help with this. If you wanna argue other peoples' answers, go right ahead. That'll only help me in my report. I'll also ask if I can use your responses to other's answers in said report.
Like I said, when I finish the rough draft I'll give it to anyone who wants to read it and go over their quotations in that report. It would be greatly helpful if I could use your real names, but like I said, I can make up a fake name if you don't feel comfortable with giving me that information.
