Can you ever imagine not having homework again and actually having a life away from school in your own environment? The point i’m trying to get to is i believe that students should get a lot less homework‚ or infact no homework overall.

Overall‚ I think the presidential election process is very democratic‚ or at least much more democratic then it was. The Founders’ original plan was to have the state legislatures decide how the electors would be elected and the only role the people would play would be to elect the people in the legislature who would then vote for the electors.
