I want you to pick either Gerrymandering or the Filibuster rule to discuss.  Once you have picked one of the topics find two reliable resources discussing the topic from the TCC Library’s Databases nswer one of the two questions below.  Additionally, this response needs to be your own, original thoughts.

Gerrymandering should remain in place because of ______ or Gerrymandering should be ruled Unconstitutional because of ____. Include your why’s for either position backed by facts from the two sources.  Do cite your sources using the MLA format 
The Filibuster rule should remain in place because of ______ or The Filibuster rule should be removed by the U.S. Senate because of _____. Include your why’s for either position backed by facts from the two sources.  Do cite your sources using the MLA format
The rules for assignment credit:

Your answer needs to be no less than 300 words.  You must answer all questions completely.  Be sure to run a spell-check on your submission. 
Students then must post thoughtful replies to two other students’ posts (100 word minimum for each of the 2 student response posts). When you post your reply to the 2 other students, I want you to use the 3CQ model. What does this mean? It means that each response should include a complement about the student’s post, a comment about the student’s post, a connection to something external to the discussion (such as a comment on your own experience/thoughts on the issue), and a question that will prompt further discussion. Please divide your responses into 4 separate parts and label them with the corresponding heading. For example:Complement: (your complement here)Comment: (your comment here)Connection: (your connection here)Question: (your question here)
Remember that the posts are not anonymous and will be moderated.  Inappropriate comments will cause students to lose credit for the assignment.
