I found a couple of really good entries while reading Evan's blog. He gave a lot of advice to Obama, and he really made an honest effort to try to think of something new to offer Obama. He did a good job of trying to use what we have now to better the suffering economy. His evidence was clearly thought out and he made a lot of good background research. He put out the current unemployment rate and how that's affecting everyone. He gave several options that the president could use, he asked president Obama to stop the war in Iraq because that is costing us trillions of dollars. I think that Evan's blog is really good at giving advice to President Obama and giving him reasonable ideas that he could feasibly use.

"I have quite a few suggestions for you Mr. Obama. The first piece of advice would be to pull out of the Iraq war as soon as possible. The cost the war as of March 2008 was in the trillions! That is money that we could have been using to strengthen our economy and keep it stable. This war as earned itself a spot on the list of most costly wars, just behind Vietnam, WWII, and Korea. With all of that money, we could have prevented our current economic crisis."
For the Literary Analysis I chose is Amanda's blog. She read the Jungle and she really knew what she was writing about, she gave a clear understanding of how literary devices were used.
"The author uses character, conflict, and foreshadowing to develop the theme that a capitalist society is an extremely difficult place to live in if you are part of the lower class."
For Historical Writing, I used Esther's blog, she talked about the 1896 election. Esther used good quotes and made it flow into her writing.
"The election of 1896 between McKinley and Bryan was impacted by the economic depression that started in the year 1893, which lasted until 1897. The depression of 1893 according to the book Nation of Nations was "the deepest the nation had yet experienced." A lot of companies and banks were failing at this time, this was a hard time for people all over for the companies, and the people who worked in those companies. When people saw that the economy was crashing they all panicked and they started taking out all of their money from the banks, which was one of the things that caused the bank failures."
