  I think I have reached a point of school over load! I don't ever want to take more that 20 credit hours ever again! LOL! Okay but  the truth is that this class is very interesting. I think I've learned more in this class than all of my other classes combined. This weeks topic was very interesting about the state, law, and social policy. Throughout the entire I just kept thinking about an issue today. This issue is about Hilary Clinton running for president. At first I was pretty skeptical about it but now that I have taken the time and actually heard her views  about the government I feel she is a strong candidate. She is not being taken seriously though because of the fact that she is a woman and was first wife to a previous president. All that shouldn't matter what should matter is her qualifications and what she could bring to the table.

  Another issue the stood out was homosexuals in the army. I did not know that we still give discharges  even after President Bill Clinton established the "Don't ask don't tell" policy. This is because this policy has very few support because some people in society think homosexuals pose a national security threat. I just think that military people think that they will be hit on by homosexuals that would make them feel uncomfortable. But that is dumb because people who enlist enlist for a purpose not to meet men and women to hit on. Everyone who enlist enlist because they think they have what it takes to  be in the military like discipline and that is their main priority so how can anyone be a national threat if they are volunteering to defend ones country.
