| Introduction | I am taking this Government course because it is a requirement for my Bachelor's Degree at UT. My name is Samantha and I am 24 years old. I'm from the Rio Grande Valley at the southernmost tip of Texas. My major is in Nursing, but I find government to be very stimulating. I am currently a registered voter. My voting record is still rather limited, having a mostly Liberal lean. Today, as a Libertarian, I believe in every man’s right to life, liberty, and property. I believe that the people have the responsibility to hold their government officials to the Constitution to which they are sworn. I may be labeled a swing voter because I don’t believe in pledging allegiance to an individual party due, in part, to the fact that the level of corruption varies from politician to politician. As a Mexican-American, I automatically have an intense sense of pride in my state and my country, and I only wish to see it prosper. I would like to learn more about government and politics. I understand that the policies of government affect me directly as well as indirectly; and I would like to better understand the intricacies so that I may vote more responsively. |
