Students  must decide which political party they will join or if they will register as an independent. Student  groups  will be analyzing one current political party and making a presentation to the class about this party’s solutions for the problems that confront the U.S. today.  Groups must strive to ensure that all information presented is current and accurate.

Objectives:

• To expose students to as many political parties as possible.
• To encourage students to register to vote.
• To increase student participation in our democratic process.
• To demonstrate the link between an underlying philosophy about the role of government and the nature of people and the positions that political groups hold.
