One of my friends is about to be a freshmen in undergrad and she obsessed with political sciences. She wants to be a lawyer in the future. She loves to read. I was wondering if anyone had any good simple gift ideas….like a great book to give….that is very popular with the political science students! Thanks!

Anyone know any books on the failure of Hillary Clinton’s healthcare reform in ‘93?
Sophia asked:
I am trying to find book sources for some research I need to complete for a political science class. I’m having trouble finding any books on the subject.

Can anyone refer some book titles to me that offer good information on why Hillary Clinton’s healthcare reform plan failed in 1993?
Please list book names and authors!
Scholarly journal articles are also good!
Thanks!

Is Ann Coulter the Marylin Manson of political commentators?
crushinator01 asked:
We all know by now that Marylin Manson just did his antics to get press and noticed. He just did the most outrageous thing to get attention… Isn’t Ann Coulter doing the same thing, saying whatever she thinks is outrageous to get attention and sell her books, or do you believe she believes all the **** filled things she says?

communism, fascism as relates to the political spectrum?
phillip j asked:
my nephew who gets his political views from me, thank god, asked me a question i wasn’t sure of so i thought i’d put it on here and see what others think.
He asked if on the left and right political spectrum would communism be considered extreme far left while fascism considered the extreme far right. i have studied politics quite a bit and didn’t know exactly what to tell him, i think its an apple and oranges scenario but thought i’d get some feedback before telling him that,
he’s not doing it for a school project he’s almost 8 and reads history and political books when he’s not playing or in school, he’ll be President someday, we’re all very proud of his ambition towards learning as much as possible.

How do the UK’s constituent countries compare to other political divisions?
aceproceed asked:
I’m curious about this and I’m sure I could read a volume of books on the matter without getting much of a good idea… But my main question is : How do England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland fit into the United Kingdom as compared to say an American state or Canadian province?
I’m curious about this and I’m sure I could read a volume of books on the matter without getting much of a good idea… But my main question is : How do England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland fit into the United Kingdom as compared to say an American state or Canadian province?
Are a majority of matters controlled at the level of the United Kingdom as a whole, things like health care, defense, etc.
Or, is the level of autonomy much higher than with most other divisions in other nations?
I know it’s a very broad question but if anyone had a very basic rundown, I’d appreciate it. It’s something of interest to me but it seems the books or sites regarding the matter offer a far more specialized view, no simple explanation of the main picture.
Thank you

What does it mean to be on the ‘political right’?
s!cked asked:
In my book, it says the following sentence: Those on the political right will generally take the view that government’s ability to regulate the use of private property has an ideological dimension. By contrast, those on the political left are far more likely to place less value of the rights of private property and thus to favor greater public regulation.

By contrast, those on the political left are far more likely to place less value of the rights of private property and thus to favor greater public regulation.
And the previous sentence doesn’t refer to the government very much. What’s it mean to be on the political right?

Does Obama really love woman or use them for his political expediency?
INewsmaven asked:
I knew someone like him that was a Judge in a town in Cincinnati. He would use his charm to build him campaign with women — mos t of the time they were his secret admirers and he knew it. Looked at what he did with Palmer, Clinton and the way he pursued Michele..i say he is out ot prove his legitimacy and if he win the Presidency he will undercut women issues to look good in the History books.
Do you own research before you speak. I did and did not like it. I was a sucker like you.
