I've been assigned an issue paper in my AP gov class, and I would really, really like to cover school segregation through busing.

I know that in Nov or Dec, there was some issue going under the courts in tennessee because some district there set quotas or something of the nature, but I've googled it amongst other things and nothing has shown up.

But I'm open to anything in which I could cover school segregation through a topic regarding busing.


Thanks!

I just wanted to say, "I LOVE THAT MAN!!!" He has done so much good for the world and America! I hope our next President is just like him! (Except maybe a bit more conservative). We are so lucky to have him in office! Don't you agree?

Bank of America with a in your face exculsive banking means for Illegals! The ruling class giving the finger to legal American working class by not facing prosecution & causing GREAT ECONOMIC harm to legal working Americans. Let me point out that 80% of the most undesirable jobs in USA are still done by legal Americans!

This isn't a trick question or attempt at getting a rise out of sensitive American republicans. For the record I am a UK anti-royalist subject.
I am just curious about US history, I recently read that G Washington was descended from British aristocracy, and also reports that several US political families have "blue blood" including, Bush (Brit/German), Clintons (Brit/Irish), Kennedy’s(Brit/Irish). Is there much truth in this and how many American presidents have ties back to the old world royal families?

I am doing a project in school informing my peers on the problem of child labor and slavey. I am looking for certain facts, statistics, or the average life of a child suffering living in slavery. Your help would be greatly appreciated! Any information would be helpful. I really would like to inform some of my peers who live in a bubble so unexposed to the rest of the world.

It seems as though people in the US are always worried about what everyone else is doing and they are always in other people's business.

People don't hesitate to call the police on others for the smallest thing and some people just can't wait to make another person look bad?

What is going on in this country?

During the 60 minute speech, I counted over 100 "I" this or that or "I don't" or "I decided", or "I want", or some other form of reference to the first person -- "my, mine, me" referring to himself. He even issued an ultimatum to Congress! Is this a nation of laws and checks and balances or a Dictatorship headed by a power hungry/money-grubbing President? Shouldn't we impeach him before he does any more damage and maybe gets us into another war that ends ups having no effect except to cost us money and the lives of some of our best and brightest?

Will we get the cream of the crop Iraqis, you know the educated ones who will be needed to rebuild Iraq, or the most vulnerable of them as the U.N. commissioner seems to indicate?

Between 2003 and 2005, more than 253,000 Iraqis did return home, including from Iran, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Jordan and other countries.

Now, however, the returns have stopped and many more people are fleeing, including large numbers of skilled professionals crucial to Iraq's recovery.

Guterres' office has said it hopes to permanently resettle this year up to 20,000 Iraqis whom it considers the most vulnerable, including women, children, survivors of torture, the seriously ill and minorities.

It certainly doesn't appear to be getting hotter this winter. Not to mention, global warming is supposed to effect the winter months.

Single hole in building -16 ft in diameter.
Boeing 757 - 155 ft long, 44 ft high, 124 ft wingspan, weighs almost 100 tons. how?

Judging by similar postings on 9/11, some Americans will give me abuse, question my patriotism to England, call me a terrorist etc etc. Bring it on.

Seemingly, some of you back your Government, without demanding the truth, with a "they wouldn't lie to me" attitude?

Will the questiion wind some of you guys up, like on previous questions on 9/11 issues? Or, can you give me a sensible explanation. What is your interpretation of this one occurrence? Many, gave me their thoughts on events during 9/11 last time, thanks, I read them with interest.
