Loss Of Freedom Through Apathy
Number of words: 967 - Number of pages: 4.... I was excited to work for the Democrats because it was my first ever
experience involved with the election. For 17 years I stood as a common
bystander to this great American tradition. Volunteering my hours made me feel
like I was part of something important.
Mostly my work consisted of random polling. I would call people up between the
hours of 7 and 9 P.M. and ask them a few questions about the election. With
every call I hoped for the best, but it seemed that I was calling people at the
time they were most irritable. Most would simply hang up, .....

Desensitized America
Number of words: 658 - Number of pages: 3.... other day we hear instances of this type of horror. Obviously the one that stands out in my mind is the Columbine tragedy, but in between the huge stories, are the instances that are just as tragic but get less press.

Chief of State exceedingly difficult and hindered his communication and
control of the military. As time passed, however, Seward recognized
Lincoln's capabilities and gave him complete loyalty (Simmons 174).
This cou .....
