Well, I don't know yet.

Well, I'll add Erty to the Blog. ( Just need to figure out how to do it). He'll be my co-poster.
But if you guys want it to be up and running, I suggest you get more people involved, otherwise it's not worth it.

Potential Shutdown

This Blog hasn't been too succesful, so I am thinking about shutting it down (like Clinton did with the governmment). I will wait two weeks, and if I do not receive any comments or questions, I will either delete or abandon my blog.

My Identity

Ok, this shouldn't be too hard. My name is included in my BloggerIdentity, I have been advertising my blog around personally, so whoever asked about my identity obviously doesn't know me personally. That's ok, I am not going to hide my identity*cough Lucas Hayas aka rantingferret*. My name is Quang N. and I am a freshman. Ok, that's all you should know... for now.

Let's Set Things Straight

Ok, please do not asks for sardines the day before the chapter is due. Also, I do not have a copy of the textbook, I only have the AP Review Guide, which means I can only help you with things when you are stuck. I don't know what's on the quiz, so I can't give you any Sardines. I can only help you with homework, or questions that you have because you are stuck or don't understand the text.

Thanks & MORE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!

Thanks for all the feedback, but you should ask more questions, or give me some ideas to do along with my Sardines of Wisdom (SOW) on Demand Program.
But for now, here's a treat:

AP Gov't Ranking System

Here's a guide to Mr. Williams's ranking system:
Out of a total of five brown bears
1 bear- easy, know the terms and concepts.
2 bears- still fairly managable, know terms and concepts in more depth.
3 bears- intermediate, know terms and concepts in depth, also remember a few examples from the book.
4 bears - challenging, know terms and and concepts in real depth. Also, remember to interpret data in the book(if given), and know the examples.
5 bears - hard, know everything in depth and how it relates to other chapters.
! 1 PANDA BEAR ON CRYSTAL METH !- very hard, usually given to tests although it's very rare. Know everything in depth, and how it relates to the other chapters.

Sometimes you will get questions, that seem ridiculous. My advice is : Choose the answer that you think is best, then make up your own answer and use it. Note in the blank that you have made up an answer.

Ex.
This sick looking ferret comes into the classroom, and instantaneously combusts. What do you do?
a) run away
b) throw it into Mr. Williams hair
c)question reality
d) call the emergency response team
Answer:
Choose one that you think is best, then make up an answer and label it, in this case, e), and tell him that you made up an answer and chosen it along with the given answer.

Bill's Run Tips

1)Think about Bill's financial situation and how much it costs him to run a good campaign. Budget often is a very important factor in campaigns. Think about third parties as a comparison. How much do they have? Can you say "Ross Perot"?. He only did so well in the election because he was filthy rich( he spent 65.4 million USD on his campaign, and the money came out of his own pocket). I doubt Bill is that rich.
2) Think about his name. How well-known is he? Is he like Arnold who has never been in politics before (Max, don't beat me up!), but is famous? Incumbents tend to win election due to their name and budget
3) Coming soon, I'm thinking about it. But think of image right now.

Oh Yeah, By The Way

By the way, I would appreciate it if you only ask questions when you are stuck with something. By that I mean, do not expect me to do the work for you, but I will provide you the neccesary information. All you will have to do is write it up nicely. Sometimes I will lead you to the right way by asking questions.
I am sorry, but the reason I am writing this is that I have a rather limited amount of time. Those of you who know me personally will know why.
As of Bill's Run, I will post some information on that topic once I find out more about it.
