If you value the democratic process, you have to value the protection of political speech. ”

I did graduate early and even received my master's degree in political science before I turned 22. ”

Political speeches might represent the ideas of the politician at hand, but often times, it's not written in their own words. ”

It's sobering to realize that there's a huge chunk of the U.S. voting population that doesn't think of sexual assault as something horrendous enough to disqualify a presidential candidate. ”

What I never seem to understand about feminist-bashing conservative women is their inability to see how ironic it is that they attend political rallies, share their opinions, and cast their ballots when the America they're nostalgic about wouldn't allow them to do any of those things. ”

Colleges prefer to enroll wealthy students because they know it's more likely that they'll pay for full tuition without needing financial aid.

When the privileged students graduate, they're expected to join the alumni association and also donate cash. ”

If the federal government is so concerned with why people are deciding against having kids, maybe they should consider how little support and protection the middle class gets when it comes to being parents. Paid leave would be a good start, and increasing wages would also help. ”
