My Topic For NHD is...

19.9.08
The topic I chose for NHD was music.Music has changed over the years because of many people.The person that I chose to write about in the music industry was Frankie Lymon. He was a major influence in the music industry and has made a major impact in so many musician's lives.Diana Ross,Ronnie Spector,The Chantels,The Temptations,Smokey Robinson, Len Barry and Michael Jackson. I chose Frankie Lymon because he was the original "Teenage Idol" and I feel as though his story was untold and he was unappreciated by alot of people that listen to "Rock & Roll" and "R&B"!

Why our country should elect Obama or McCain...

11.9.08
I think my country should support Barack Obama because he is honest,loyal and courageous! Thats what we need as a president.Not some forgetful,old and lying man, that cant even remember house many houses he has.If John McCain forgets about something as small as how many houses he has, than what does that show he's going to achieve in this country? The issue that I chose to discuss/compare is healthcare:

Obama: -Guaranteed Eligibility
-Comprehensive Benefits
-Affordability
-Simpler Paperwork
-Public Plan
-Portability and Choice


-Quality and Efficiency

McCain: -By reforming tax code

-Allowing families to purchase health care
-Providing multi-year coverage
-Develop a financial risk

The difference between the two plans are Barack Obama is looking to rely mostly on the heavy hand of the government and will impose caps on health care premiums and price controls on drug companies. He would then have the government establish national practice standards for health providers and doctors. The National Health Insurance Exchange, another plan he wants to create, will act as a sort of clearinghouse to make it easier for individuals and businesses to shop around for the best health care.

On the other hand, John McCain is looking to attempt promotion of greater competition among health insurance companies, allowing rates to fall from the growing competition across state lines (without any use of the government’s power). The purpose of the plan is allow freedom of choice and puts Americans in the position to insist on lower costs for higher quality, just as we do with any other product or service we purchase.

I plan on starring in various types of movies (action,drama,horror,etc) with Larenz Tate,Martin Lawrence,Denzel Washington and my idol, Halle Berry!
