7-8 Line Answers For Question

Instructions: This test is open-book but is an individual exercise. You may not work with any other student or individual to complete this test. Please type your answers to the questions, save it as a word document, make sure you put your name at the top of the document, and turn it in on BlackBoard under the Test Two Tab by the end of the day on Friday, January 10, 2020. Late tests cannot be accepted because my grades are due the following day. Please communicate with me if you have any questions or issues.

Note: In this class we focus on government, work on our reading and writing skills (something we can all work on our entire lives!), and work on and practice our critical thinking skills. Critical thinking is El Centro’s focus for its Quality Enhancement Plan. Critical thinking is described by El Centro this way: “Critical thinking is a disciplined and continuous process of asking the right questions and practicing logical thought processes to come to justifiable conclusions.” See www.elcentrocollege.edu. This test focuses on all three of these objectives. Please use complete sentences, proofread your responses, reach a conclusion in your answers, and support your conclusions. Remember – in this class you are never graded on your opinion, but on your ability to form an opinion and support it – which is essential to critical thinking!

Chapter 8 – The Judicial System in Texas

1. Judges in Texas are elected and must therefore run for re-election. Federal judges are appointed by the President of the United States (with the approval of the United States Senate) and then they serve for life or until they retire. They are not elected and therefore do not have to ever run for election. Which system do you think is better (judges elected OR judges appointed) and fully explain why.

ANSWER:

Chapter 9 – Political Socialization, Political Behavior, and Public Opinion

2. Politicians study political socialization and the political behavior of their constituents to direct their campaigns. Politicians may focus on different issues and messages during their campaigns depending on the audience they are speaking to at any given time. For example, if a politician is speaking to a group of business people then the politician would know that and direct their messages to the interests of those people in that certain business industry. If the politician is speaking to a group of farmers, the politician is going to direct their messages to the interests and needs of farmers. Before politicians speak to any group they will study and understand the characteristics of that group so they can direct their messages to that group’s interests. If you were a politician about to go and speak to a group of people, tell me the at least three (3) things you would want to know about that group of people that would help you direct your message. Fully explain why you want to know about these characteristics and how they would help you.
