Track Description
During this Track we are going to take a look at a historical election: Truman and Dewey and party platforms: FDR and the Democrats. Then we are going to compare it to the 2000 election and party platforms today (focusing on the two major parties Democrat, Republican). After all this, you should be more informed voters and we will hold a mock election. Two people will give speeches people will give speeches as if they were running president and then we will vote. Good Luck have fun. ******THIS IS SOMETHING THAT YOU WILL USE IN THE FUTURE.
