     Some reasons for people not wanting to talk about money include some people are poorer than others and they don't want to discuss it. Another is they may be in tough times and it is too personal. Some people might just not want to talk about it and keep it personal, to not let others in on their personal info. Some people might be scared to admit how much money they have.

Election 2010

     The recount is going to tale place due to a 8,855 vote difference. The recount is going to include running the machines again and have thm recount. If that doesn't work than people will have to count them by hand. They than have to send them to a councel to pass the votes and make sure that it is fair. Republicans are calling a 400,000 error count in Hennepin County suspicous. They are going to recount to make sure that when the computers were erroring for about 45 minutes that nothing was going wrong with the counting of the votes. They say that if there is a winning margin of less than 10,500 votes than it will trigger an automatic recount in the system.

Emmer for Governer!

     The Winona Daily News put out this article about Tom Emmer. The ad is trying to get you to vote for Emmer. The ad uses persuasion and is informative. The ad uses claim to tell you about how Emmer will do good in office. I think the ad is good because he doesn’t tear down his opponents or do anything to be harmful to them in any way. I think I would vote for him because of the fact that he isn’t a negative person and I haven’t really seen any negative ads from him. It’s mostly the other candidates that are using negativity to tear down the opponents and build themselves up.  Try this link to get to the article I used Emmer Article

Books? Banned?!

     I don’t think books should be banned because of just one person. If it were an entire country than maybe it could be banned from just there, but just because one person doesn’t like one part of the book doesn’t mean it should be banned. I think one person can freely express their feelings about the book and see if others agree. One person may not like a book but that doesn’t mean that everyone else around them also doesn’t think it’s appropriate. Once it is banned people might want to buy it even more because it’s banned. If the book is banned the author will have put all of that work into hardly anything. I think it’s pointless.
