It is designed to fulfill state educational requirements and to prepare students for the Advanced Placement examination in U.S. Government and Politics. This course has been authorized by ​ the College Board to use the “AP” designation for the 2018-2019 school year. Through lectures, college texts, scholarly articles, national journals, selected chapters from outstanding works in political science, case studies, and small group discussions, students learn the basic operating principles of the United States government as well as several theoretical and analytic models for understanding the process of American politics at the state and national levels. Course activities prepare students for the College Board AP exam in U.S. Government and Politics with writing exercises similar focused on AP-style questions. In accordance with the ​ AP course guidelines, specific topics include: - Constitutional Underpinnings - Political Beliefs and Behaviors - Political Parties, Interest Groups, and Mass Media - Institutions of National Government - Public Policy - Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Throughout the course, students learn the historical origins and foundations of the United States political system. They practice critically analyzing the roles democracy, political thought, civil liberties, and the Constitution play in the American political system and political institutions. Students use case studies to examine the structure and function of Congress, the Presidency, the courts, mass media, interest groups, political parties, the federal bureaucracy, and the part each of these institutions plays in the policymaking process. After completing this course, students have the tools to analyze American economic and political systems, interpret data relating to U.S. governmental affairs, and will be able to explain the roots of patterns within the political processes. Summer School students in this course take two examinations and write an 8-12-page analytical paper of university caliber demonstrating their understanding of American government. The term paper involves original research and extensive use of the Georgetown University Library. Faculty closely supervises all student research. Classroom material is augmented by a robust speakers program where students attend lectures from premier speakers in their fields. The course is offered for high school credit and is equivalent to a one-semester Advanced Placement course in U.S. Government & Politics. For students from high schools that do not offer Advanced Placement courses, this class also duplicates an Honors U.S. Government course. Classes are held six days a week. Students accumulate over 85 classroom hours in the program. The assigned college-level textbook for the course is: 2018 JSA Summer School at Georgetown | 4 Ginsberg, B., Lowi, T. J., Weir, M., Tolbert, C. J., & Spitzer, R. J. (2017). We the People: An th ​ Introduction to American Politics (11 ​ ed.). New York, NY: W.W. Norton and Co. ​ ​ ​ ​ COURSE DESCRIPTION HONORS CONSTITUTIONAL LAW In this college-level course, students explore the development of American Constitutional Law including the origins of the Constitution, the rise of judicial power, the development of the Court’s doctrine in the areas of federalism and economic regulation, the Court’s relationship to other branches of government, and the judicial protection of fundamental rights under the Bill of Rights. Numerous provisions of the Constitution and its amendments guarantee individual rights and liberties. However, conflicts over the meaning and application of such guarantees constantly arise, requiring the courts--ultimately the Supreme Court--to resolve them not only by interpreting the language of the Constitution but also by balancing the interests of the conflicting parties. To help make sense of all of this, the Constitutional Law course is organized around three questions: (1) What in the Constitution that is to be interpreted? What is its nature and what are its functions? What does it include? How does it legitimately change? (2) Who are the authoritative interpreters of the Constitution and what are the relations among them? (3) How should authoritative interpreters interpret the Constitution? Students read and analyze Supreme Court decisions with the goal of understanding constitutional doctrine. However, because court decisions also are a reflection of the political and social context in which they are made, students also look beyond court cases to the broader political and social background which is essential to understanding the nature of civil liberties and civil rights in the American constitutional system. Summer School students in this course take two essay examinations that test their knowledge of readings, lectures, guest speakers, and discussions, and write a 8-12 page analytical paper of university caliber demonstrating their understanding of constitutional issues in conflict and the workings of the Supreme Court. The paper either interprets a specific Supreme Court case or examines a topic concerning constitutional law, constitutional interpretation or the Supreme Court. Students must research their paper using a variety of legal and other sources, citing previous cases as precedents for their decision or brief. The term paper requires original research and extensive use of the Georgetown University Library. Faculty closely supervise student research. Classroom material is augmented by a robust speakers program where students attend lectures from premier speakers in their fields. While the class is offered for high school credit and is equivalent to a one-semester Honors Social Studies elective, it is taught at a college level. Classes are held six days a week. Students accumulate over 85 classroom hours in the program. 2018 JSA Summer School at Georgetown | 5 The assigned college-level textbook for the course is: Mason, A. T., & Stephenson, D. G. (2012).

COURSE DESCRIPTION HONORS INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS This is an introductory college-level course designed to give students the tools to analyze key conceptual issues in international relations. Students learn about the key issues and actors in international relations. They analyze the origins and evolution of the international system and the role of the state, the nation, international organizations, ethnic groups, and other non-state actors in global affairs. Through the use of case studies of specific international situations, students explore various themes in international relations including globalization and political economy, the use of force, state formation and failure, international institutions,

  • Inside the Democrats' Battle to Take Back Texas
    FT Magazine US presidential election 2020 Inside the Democrats’ battle to take back Texas Will shifting demographics and anti-Trump energy be enough to reverse the state’s long Republican dominance? Demetri Sevastopulo 13 MINUTES AGO The first time Sima Ladjevardian experienced a political revolution, she was 12 years old and sitting in a classroom in Tehran in the middle of what felt like an earthquake. “Everything was shaking,” she says, recalling the uprising that engulfed Iran four decades ago and led to the country’s Islamic republic. “We all came out and it was a sea of people throwing acid into the school and shooting guns in the air. Very scary.” There had been whispers at home about the dangers of the revolution. Ladjevardian’s grandmother had helped women secure the right to vote and then become a member of parliament. Her father was also an MP at the time. But after that eventful day, those rumours turned into a harsh reality when her mother told her and her brother that they would go to Paris — just for a short while. “I had a really weird premonition that we were just never gonna go back,” she says. She was right. Her family spent two years in France, before moving to California to pursue the American dream. As a teenager, Ladjevardian perfected her English by watching Star Wars. Now 54, she talks to me from Houston, Texas, where in next month’s US elections she will embark on her own political quest with the Democratic party: she is campaigning to oust Dan Crenshaw, a freshman Republican in the second congressional district in Texas.

  • Testing the Waters” and the Big Lie: How Prospective Presidential Candidates Evade Candidate Contribution Limits While the FEC Looks the Other Way
    215 E Street, NE Washington, DC 20002 tel (202) 736-2200 fax (202) 736-2222 www.campaignlegalcenter.org “Testing the Waters” and the Big Lie: How Prospective Presidential Candidates Evade Candidate Contribution Limits While the FEC Looks the Other Way Paul S. Ryan February 2015 Executive Summary With the 2014 midterm elections behind us, public attention has shifted to the 2016 presidential election. News stories appear daily about prospective 2016 presidential candidates’ repeated trips to Iowa and New Hampshire, extensive fundraising and campaign machine building. Yet none of the early frontrunners—former Governor Jeb Bush, Governor Scott Walker and more than a dozen other politicians—will even admit that they are “testing the waters” of a presidential campaign. Why is this? And how can it be? The “why” part is easy to explain. Federal law requires an individual who is “testing the waters” of a federal candidacy to pay for those activities with funds raised in compliance with the federal candidate contribution restrictions—no individual contributions above $2,700, no corporate or labor union funds. “Testing the waters” means activity “undertaken to determine whether the individual should become a candidate,” including, for example, travel to see if there is sufficient support for one’s candidacy. Prospective presidential candidates deny that they are “testing the waters” in order to evade the candidate contribution limits. The “how” part is more difficult to explain. Among the long list of nearly 20 prospective 2016 presidential candidates, only Senator Lindsey Graham and former Senator Jim Webb appear to be complying with the federal campaign finance law requirement that “testing the waters” activities be paid for with candidate-permissible funds.

Asking the audience whether anyone thought the Texas Latino population exceeded 10 percent, a few hands went up. Each dropped as he continued; 20, 30, 40 percent. As he revealed that the Hispanic share of Texan population was rapidly approaching 50 percent, his point was made.1 Heading the strongest state Republican Party with the best record on winning Latino votes—Munisteri has cause for worry, and the lack of basic demographic and other information on the Latino population among Republicans leaders adds to it.

On June 13, 2010, Munisteri was elected chairman of the Republican Party of Texas at the state convention held in Dallas.

Munisteri was active in politics early in his teenage years, first working as a volunteer for the campaigns of Texas Republicans Henry C. Grover and John Tower in 1972. He formed a conservative club at Memorial High School. In 1976, Munisteri was elected state vice chairman for Texas Young Americans for Freedom, was an active volunteer for Ronald Reagan, and attended the 1976 Republican National Convention. From 1977 to 1980, he served as state chairman of the YAF and was also elected to YAF's national board of directors.

Google, which first acknowledged the outage at 11.12am Pacific Time (19.12 GMT), said roughly one hour later that service had been restored for some users and it expected “a resolution for all users in the near future.” It remained unclear what triggered the outage, which affected users in at least India, Britain and the United States and prompted a stream of complaints on Twitter from users in many more countries.

  • The Senator Has Fought to Go Mainstream with the Ideology That He Shares with His Father
    For Immediate Release: September 29, 2014 Press Contacts: Natalie Raabe, (212) 286-6591 Molly Erman, (212) 286-7936 Ariel Levin, (212) 286-5996 The Senator Has Fought to Go Mainstream with the Ideology That He Shares with His Father. How Far Can That Strategy Take Him? In the October 6, 2014, issue of The New Yorker, in “The Revenge of Rand Paul” (p. 44), Ryan Lizza, through a series of four interviews with Rand Paul, traces the senator’s efforts to woo the Republican establishment and investigates his shot at the Presidency in 2016. “In some respects, Paul is to Republicans in 2014 what Barack Obama was to Democrats in 2006: the Party’s most prized fund-raiser and its most dis- cussed senator, willing to express opinions unpopular within his party, and capable of energizing younger voters,” Lizza writes. “Yet, also like Obama at a similar stage in his career, Paul could be hobbled by past associations and statements, especially on race and foreign policy.” This summer, Steve Munisteri, the chairman of the Republican Party of Texas, told Lizza that “[Paul] is objectively one of the three most likely people to get the nomination.” Later, following the evolution of Paul’s position on military action in the Middle East, Munisteri re- canted this statement, saying that his earlier prediction was unlikely, because “the foreign-policy situation is such a wild card.” John Mc- Cain, one of Paul’s longtime critics, told Lizza in August that, if Paul is the Republican nominee for President in 2016, he will support him.
