Presidential Roles and Health Care
Your goal today is to use 2 of the following articles to examine/evaluate what roles the President is using to get his message across to the American people and to what extent he is actually being successful. You must also seek out and find one more article that supports your argument, or one article that you believe is an innacurate portrayal of the battle.
Please identify the role that the President is utilizing based upon the definitions from yesterday's document.
Feel free to respond to some of the comments from the websites that you visit as well. Those are always VERY interesting to read.
Philadelphia Daily News
Bill O'Reilly
New Jersey Star Ledger
The Huffington Post (Since I put Fox up as a link, I will put up a fiercely liberal page up too)
Due by midnight on 3/9.
