Fake News

In the blog post titled 'Fake News' Jaimes writes about if our President is creating violence through his fake news. The opinion written was very vague, which is understandable as it is a controversial subject. The post has a conclusion that leaves you thinking and wanting to create your own opinion of this subject, which I really enjoyed. On the contrary if I must criticize, I would say the voice wasn't loud enough. I think there has been much evidence on the fake news trump has presented or the lies Trump has told in office. Overall, the post was well written and had a flow to it that let me able to keep reading it..

“My vote won't matter…” While election day is around the corner there is many people that believe their vote will not matter. Looking at the big scheme of things, essentially it won't seem like a big impact, but your vote is much more than just a tally. "One small step is one giant step for mankind" coming together and encouraging people to not just vote but educate themselves before making the vote, will matter not just here in the present but in the future as well. We are upon a huge race that could determine if Texas will go republican for the first time in many of our lifetimes, even bigger than that determine if our vote will turn the House of Representatives to democratic, leading to a possible impeachment of our president. Many young people have made a point to register and get out and vote, which has surprised many political scientists and set records, i.e. Williamson County set a record on the amount of registered voters this election. This election could be the biggest aid to the possible realignment of our Nation and State. From a young persons stand point I do not believe the turnout of voters and the support some of the running senators have would reach numbers like that if it was not for social media. For months many have shared their political views on Facebook, Twitter, and many other social media sites, even famous people have spoke out about how much voting matters. Our Nation is needs much work, and this election could be the start to help... Voting matters.
