Battle of Tippacannoe

 I think they did a good, boring, job on this article. I would have included a few other things in this article though… For example: I would have said how many warriors/ soldiers there were, and how many were killed/ injured. there were 500–700 warriors for the Indians, 36- 50 killed, 60- 80 wounded. The Americans had 470 infantry,370 cavalry, and 360 militia. Out of those men, 62 killed, and 126 wounded. It may sound surprising how more Americans died and were wounded, but there were so many more of them. I would just put this interesting fact in the end of the article, because I know guys would definitely like that fact, and girls too.  if you would like any more information, you can click here.

Does history make great leaders, or do great leaders make history?

 EASILY, my opinion is great leaders make history. I think this because leaders that go down in history, have to do/ lead something before they are in our history. For example, Lieutenant Speirs (world war 2 lieutenant) was a leader that went into history when he-… well just watch this reanactment from the HBO series Band of Brothers.its 100% true, but this man was ruthless, his modo was “once you accept that your already dead, it will be easier to kill” thats not exact but it was something along the lines of that. But he was a leader because he had almost no emotion, just fight for his country, only to follow the orders of the higher ranked, and thats what he did. Although I dont like some of the stuff he did to prisoners, if the myths are true, i still have great respect for what he did, and fighting to keep us all alive, even if we weren’t alive at the time.

December 22, 2012

http://www.flickr.com/photos/joelmarkwitt/2797956179/sizes/s/in/photostream/So a lot of people think that on December 21, 2012, thw world is going to end. I do not believe in this, and I have proof. The word was supposed to “end” several times before, most popular one was Y2K when we reached 2000. Y2K caused suicides, lost hope, and sadness, for absolutely nothing. I’m pretty sure we’re still alive, so why is everyone so sure that 2012 is the end of the world? I do not think this is going to happen, do you? Also if they are making movies of it, it just doesn’t seem “legit” to me. These are just a few of the reasons I don’t think it will happen

My video

Well in class I made a frequentley asked questions video about the Constitution. However I don’t have this video on my computer so I can’t upload it. I also could not finish it because I recorded my voice at the end of class, and when I tried to upload it to movie maker it was being all funky, and my teacher was helping someone else. so on monday I will embed my video into this post once it is finished. Its not a very long video, but I answer three questions; how old must you be to vote for the U.S President?(many people get confused with this for some reason) What is the propper age of the Vice President? What are the Bill of Rights?  Could the Constitution have passed without them? (last 2 all in one answer)

Bill of rights or not?

So I went to a bunch of blogs from kids in other countries to see if they had a bill of rights and if it was similar to the United States bill of rights. This is the post that I asked them to comment on so if they end up commenting it will be on this blog. With that being said let me tell you what the bill 0f rights is. The Bill of Rightsis a series of limitations on the power of the United States Federal government ( the rights a human in America has). The United states did pass without these however. They were added in years after the constitution was published. The bill of rights are the first ten amendments, the bill of rights was put into place during the Cheshire home invasion. If you read the hyperlink above and know about the Cheshire home invasion you will see why/ how it is being put into place.
