Is Prayer Allowed in Public Schools?
In Texas, a federal appeals court overturned a judge’s rulings that prayer would be allowed during the graduation ceremony taking place. Governor Rick Perry and state Attorney General Greg Abbott felt that prayer should be allowed at a graduation ceremony. The lawsuit was first filed by an agnostic family, and they claimed that their son would suffer “irreparable harm” if anyone prayed at the graduation ceremony. The crazy thing about it is that Congress convenes everyday with a prayer. The First Amendment allows Americans to practice free religion. So why can’t people pray in school and public events? This shouldn’t be restricted from being done. There will always be controversy with this opinion. I think that there should be prayer and the people who don’t participate in it will not pray, that’s all.

Sarah Palin Running for President?
Sarah Palin is trying a new strategy with her campaign party. The reason why she didn't show up in Gettysburg was because she feels that her campaign schedule should be confidential from the public. By this, all of the media is trying to keep up with Sarah. She probably did this to get noticed by this stunt. While talking to reporters she told them to expect the unexpected if she runs for the White House. Overall Sarah Palin is trying to change her approach in the election because no one wants to vote for a candidate that doesn’t catch their attention in some way.
Some people believe that Sarah Palin is taking away from the Republican’s main focus: which is to beat President Obama. Sarah Palin doesn’t seem likely to win the elections.

A couple of years ago some thought that Bobby Jindal would be the next best thing for the Republican party and would possibly become the president.

It connects back to class because earlier this year we studied and watched the outcomes of the mid-elections and how the candidates were trying to receive votes. When mid-elections were over there was a shift of power in the House of Representatives and the Senate. But we’ll find out the outcome of the elections in 2012.
