Should Professional Athletes and Musical Artists Considered Role Models? – Dorian Anderson

I think professional athletes and musical artist could be considered role models. I agree because professional athletes inspire youth to stay fit healthy, and musical artists inspire children to widen theirs minds and enlighten them to express their emotions.

Dorian Anderson’s Idea on Automatic Citizenship to Children Born to Illegal Immigrants

I believe that the lawmaker’s are unconstitutional people. But I understand why they would change the law but if it’s in the constitution, its understanding to most and fair to others. I believe that it’s fair but unfair at the same time. I believe that it’s fair because many of the illegal immigrants have children and should be able to stay in America, and this is beginning to over populating America which provides an edge to change the idea of the constitution. But it’s unfair because many illegal immigrants get deported because they are undocumented workers. Some times the illegal immigrants deported have to leave their child in America in a foster home full of other children whose parent were deported. Over all I believe that it is not fair to change the law of the 14 Amendment. Also I think that it is easier to just get registered to be a citizen of America instead of having an unwanted child in order to stay in America.

This Year Bad Winter Season by Dorian Anderson

No I don’t believe global warming is the reason for the intense winter weather
this year. I believe it is because of the earth’s dramatic change in its
climate and slight tilt of its axis. Personally I clean up my community around
my community and I also recycle. I would like to do more community clean up and participate in a community gardening because it makes our communities a better place to live, and it also allows us to live off the land.

Dorian Anderson’s Thoughts About Cathy Black, The Ex-NYC’s School Chancelor

I believe the people have a right to be upset, because she has no Public School
Chancellor experience. Cathy Black wasn’t trying her best to improve and help
students improve with their education and graduation rates which is unfair for
many students and disappointing to the parents.   I believe the mayor should have chosen someone who has better experiences and educational values in order to better improve the public school system and its students.

South Sudan Break Away from Sudan by Dorian Anderson

Based on the years of violence, bloodshed, war, and ethnic cleansing that has transpired for the last two decades in Sudan, South Sudan is fighting back for their independence from Sudan. There have been many atrocities documented around the world, i.e., during the reign of Sadam Hussain, (1988): Chemical attack on Kurdish village of Halabja killed approximately 5,000 people. In 1994, 800,000 people were mass murdered in Rwanda. Let us not forget the continuous civil unrest and continuous reports of mass killings out of the African Congo. During the current conflict and two prior civil uprisings in Sudan leading to the deaths of over 2 million people; since January 2011, the citizens of Southern Sudan have taken part in a referendum ( popular vote), which determines if they would become an independent state. Although Southern Sudan has been a self-governed region of Sudan since a 2005 peace sharing agreement, the result of this popular vote could end up splitting Africa’s largest country into two separate states and have impacts that transcend the region. Even though there has been a major out-cry for independence from the people of Sudan, the two sides must still negotiate key issues such as citizenship rights, oil rights and temporary boundary lines (demarcation). It appears as though the high levels of corruption in the political structure of that region will only continue to implode upon itself, unless, a military-backed, democratic- party, structured for the people, comes into power.

Dorian Anderson on the Public Outcry for Gun Control

 Yes, we need to improve gun laws. I think gun laws should be improved because many people can react under intense situations in an irresponsible way and will resort to using a gun. Most of the time a gun would be used to “solve” the problem.  In this country a gun is not the only way to solve a problem but, some people would use a gun and take out their anger on an innocent person or thinking that resorting to a gun would easily “solve” the problem, when it wouldn’t.

However, it is a constitutional right for people to bare arms. So, it is difficult to make it illegal for people to own a gun when it is a constitutional right. There could be a more intense law where a person would need identification, fingerprinted in order to be able to purchase a gun with an additional need of approval from the government to bare and carry it.

As a citizen I would inform people in my neighborhood of the consequences of owning a gun. I would also spread the word through my school to the youth in grades above and below me about the consequences of carrying around and owning a weapon for insensible reasons that could be solved differently.

Given the Revolution in Egypt, How Does Dorian Anderson Feel to Live in a Democracy?

I think it is important to live in a democracy because you have a right to do what you feel is right without going to jail and/or punished for exercising your God given rights, and for expressing your opinion. It is not fair for people not to be allowed to exercise their rights.

The dictatorship  rule forces people to follow someone who is in command such as a  president or mayor and doesn’t allow people to have freedom to do or say anything but what they are told to do. In a democracy I have the freedom to speak, and vote and all the other rights listed in the bill of rights without having to talk to someone in authority for approval.

What Would Dorian Anderson Say to President Obama If He Could Speak With Him?

If I was able to have 15 minutes to talk to President Barak Obama about any problem I would be honored. A social problem I would like to talk to him about is Health Care. Many people in this country work for tiring hours and some of the people get really sick and their jobs don’t cover them to get the medication or checkups. They have to use their own money to see a doctor and get medicine but they can’t afford to do both.

Many of the jobs within the middle-class have low wages and/or sometimes no health care at all. One of the examples of a health care problem is the firefighters who can’t afford to see a doctor for the work related injuries they endured on 9/11.  I think that it is unfair to have a job that can cause you to get sick and not be able to try and keep you well.

I would talk to the President and explain to him how important it would be to have appropriate health care coverage if you work.  I would also talk to him about having health care coverage if you can no longer work because of a job related illness.  I know it is important to develop safe jobs so that some of job illness will no longer exist.  But because they do, people should be able to know it’s ok to get sick and be able to get better with the proper medical coverage.

What Social Problem Would Dorian Anderson Try to Solve If He Had $1 Million?

If I was given $1 million to combat any problem in the world, it would be to eliminate starvation, help rebuild schools, and help find a cure for HIV/AIDS. I chose starvation, helping rebuild schools, and help finding a cure for HIV/AIDS because many youths are dying of starvation, lack of education and are uneducated in protecting themselves from getting HIV/AIDS.  From my donations, I would give a bright future to the unfortunate youths who are suffering from the conditions that they are currently in.  My donations would help to eliminate poverty, starvation, and/or lack of education.

I would spend the money sparingly; I would donate $500,000.00 to support organizations that collect food to help them in their deliveries to families in need. I would donate $250,000 dollars to research labs to help find a cure for HIV/AIDS and I will also donate $250,000.00 to help rebuild schools, donate supplies to help those who are willing to learn a skill in order to be successful.

Many people are suffering from poverty because no one cares enough to help them.  Poverty exists because of the lack of money and education.  The consequences of the lack of education are known to be quite deadly.

Which Leader Inspires Dorian Anderson the most?

Many people have different inspirations. This is true because people have different beliefs. Some people use religious, political, and/ or economic belief as an inspiration.

 The leader that I admire is a political person. The person is Congressman Elijah Cummings. He is a very inspirational person, especially politically speaking. The way he speaks is inspirational. He is a person that would help you if needed it.

Councilman Elijah Cummings should be an inspiration to many children, because he dedicates his time to help this generation have a better, healthier, more educated and cleaner future.

 I’m also inspired by my mother because she is the best and one of the most important people at her job. My mom is a very inspirational person to me and others at her job. She assists others to be successful in accomplishing their goal. This inspires me to be the best I can be.
