Your blog entry should focus on your Political Experience, as well as on your thoughts and opinions concerning the Political Experience.

I attended a school run Young Politicians Club at my school and the topics that were discussed were immigration and abortion. Both topics were very interesting, and and I saw how these topics directly affected us; both as students and as citizens in the United States. For each debate we were divided into two groups, For and Against and we were given time to form our argument and rebuttals for the debate. We sat on opposite end of the room and waited for one another to speak, but the actual debating got pretty heated as opinions and tempers clashed in the room. It was a fun experience even though I did get frustrated from time to time from all of the noise and people outright arguing with one another. The teacher kept the peace as best she could but some of the debaters were fuming at one another regardless of what she said.
