Today, I want to talk about what groups of people should a candidate focus on mobilizing and getting to turn out on Election Day, and sort of advertising strategy would the candidate recommend, if the candidate want to win the election.
Of course, there are some groups the candidate should focus on mobilizing and getting to turn out on Election Day. First, I have to say, is the young people. There are a lot of youngsters out there in the society. So, we need to catch their heart, and let them to vote for us. Most of the youngsters don't have the passions on politics and most of the don't have a very clear partisanship. So, it is easier to pull them over to our side. And although youngsters don't have the passions on politics, they have passions and their passions are easy to arouse. So, arouse their passions and pull them to vote for us. And another I want to focus on are the people with different races, because colored people in this country have less passions on politics than the white people. But the population is not small number. So, we can gather workers from different races to work for us, and let them to pull the voters in different races to vote for us.
The other question is what sort of advertising strategy would the candidate recommend. I think we will do it issue-oriented and personality-oriented, because I think that issues are important. If people love what you say about what you are going to do, they will vote for you. But, the personality is also important. The candidate need to bring his/her charisma. Charisma is very important, because sometimes election is more like a perceptual behavior. I think with these two things, if we did them well, we will get a huge number of voters. And one more great thing we can use is the Internet. We can build networks for our supporters and volunteers. And the voters can donate money to us from the networks.
So, the last problem is what sorts of challenges might my candidate face and how would I suggest he/she respond to them. The first thing I want to say is that maybe people don't have much response. So, I need my candidate to have charisma. As what I have said, charisma is very important. The candidate needs to be winsome on the podium when he/she is giving the speeches. I need him/her to be the leader and superstar at the same time. And when we are at the party's nomination, it is harder to win, because we maybe have the similar issues with the other candidate within the same party. So, the charisma is more important here.
If the candidate did want I said here, he/she will win the election.

Capital Punishment
Thesis statement: Though some countries still have capital punishment, like China, and some states of US still have capital punishment, I strongly claim that capital punishment should be abolished for the three following reasons.
1. The history of capital punishment.
A. Execution of criminals and political opponents has been used by nearly all societies—both to punish crime and to suppress political dissent. At early, In different places or countries, the capital punishment was easily done to people.Example: In 1700s Britain there were 222 crimes which were punishable by death, including crimes such as cutting down a tree or stealing an animal.
B. Movements towards humane executionIn early New England, public executions were a very solemn and sorrowful occasion, sometimes attended by large crowds, who also listened to a Gospel message and remarks by local preachers and politicians.
C. AbolitionismIn the United States, Michigan was the first state to ban the death penalty, on May 18, 1846. The death penalty was declared unconstitutional between 1972-1976 based on the Furman v. Georgia case, but the 1976 Gregg v. Georgia case once again permitted the death penalty under certain circumstances.
2. Controversy and debate
Capital punishment is often the subject of controversy. Opponents of the death penalty argue that it has led to the execution of innocent people, that life imprisonment is an effective and less expensive substitute, that it discriminates against minorities and the poor, and that it violates the criminal's right to life.Wrongful execution is a miscarriage of justice occurring when an innocent person is put to death by capital punishment. Many people have been proclaimed innocent victims of the death penalty. Some have claimed that as many as 39 executions have been carried out in the U.S. in face of compelling evidence of innocence or serious doubt about guilt. Newly-available DNA evidence has allowed the exoneration of more than 15 death row inmates since 1992 in the U.S., but DNA evidence is only available in a fraction of capital cases.
Reasons for people who think that capital punishment should be banned:
B. example: Capital punishment does not seem to deter murder - the US, which is one of the few democracies to retain capital punishment, has one of the highest murder rates in the world, at around 1 per 10,000 of the population (in Britain it is 1 per 100,000). Numbers of murders do not rise when capital punishment is abolished. US states with the death penalty have 50% more murders than those without.
3. Religious views
A. ChristianityAlthough some interpret that Jesus' teachings condemn the death penalty in The Gospel of Luke and The Gospel of Matthew regarding Turning the other cheek, and John 8:7 in which Jesus intervenes in the stoning of an adulterous, rebuking the mob with the phrase "may he who is without sin cast the first stone", others consider Romans 13:3-4 to support it. Also, Leviticus 20:2-27 has a whole list of situations in which execution is supported.
B. Buddhism
There is disagreement among Buddhists as to whether or not Buddhism forbids the death penalty. The first of the Five Precepts (Panca-sila) is to abstain from destruction of life. Chapter 10 of the Dhammapada states:
Everyone fears punishment; everyone fears death, just as you do. Therefore do not kill or cause to kill. Everyone fears punishment; everyone loves life, as you do. Therefore do not kill or cause to kill.
C. JudaismThe official teachings of Judaism approve the death penalty in principle but the standard of proof required for application of death penalty is extremely stringent, and in practice, it has been abolished by various Talmudic decisions, making the situations in which a death sentence could be passed effectively impossible and hypothetical.
Conclusion:
According to my three reasons: can't repair judicial mistakes, humanism and religion. The capital punishment should be abolished. People, who believe in what I said, should work on how to abolish capital punishment, and they should always persist that what they believe in.

Reasons for people who think that capital punishment should be banned:
1. when we did the capital punishment, if there is mistake in judicial process, we can't fix it.
A. DNA evidence
B. example:"A man, whose name is Colin Campbell Ross, convicted and executed for the rape and murder of a 12 year old girl 86 years ago has been officially pardoned today. He was 28 years old and today is an innocent man. This is sadly a shining example of why the death penalty must be abolished. There are no do-over in death. Once a mistake has been made there is no going back."
2. humanism, everyone has the right to live.
A.humanist said:"Capital punishment, which is not used in Europe, is generally opposed by humanists because they think premeditated killing is wrong, even when carried out by the state, and because of the possibility of error and an irrevocable failure of justice. Treating criminals fairly also helps to ensure that innocent suspects are treated fairly."B. example: Capital punishment does not seem to deter murder - the US, which is one of the few democracies to retain capital punishment, has one of the highest murder rates in the world, at around 1 per 10,000 of the population (in Britain it is 1 per 100,000).

If you want to win the election, what should you do?
Today, I want to talk about what issues should a candidate prioritize and what positions should candidate take on them, if the candidate want to win the election. I think that the candidate need to consider a lot of issues, because that the citizens care about these things and these are the issues that the candidate need to face today.
First, let's talk about economy. Today, economy become a big serious problem because of the "Financial Tsunami". My strategy is to reduce in income tax on the lower income group and stay at the same level or no cutting about the annual income of 25 million or more wealthy group of people. These are because that the economy of the country and the world is not good and you can say, it is bad. the poor people and the low income people are getting poorer and poorer. They need government's help, so cutting tax is good start. With doing this, the candidate can get their confirms. And for doing to the rich ones, we can't cut the tax, because although there is a economy problem, the rich ones are still the rich ones. But we also can't increase the tax on them, because we can't lose them.
Second, for trade, support free trade agreements between Colombia, South Korea, Panama and Peru. Support a renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement to strengthen labor and environmental provisions. Talk about the free trade agreement negotiations with the 27 EU members. Support for opening new trade markets. Trade is always good. There is nothing bad to make more trade with the other countries. But make sure that our country can benefit in the trades.
The third thing I'm going to talk about is wars. My suggestion is to fight against the wars. Most of the American citizens don't want wars, because people are dying in the wars, that person can be someone's son, husband or father. People don't want to see that anymore. So to fight against the wars can catch voters heart. People love peace, so bring the peace to people. And you will win their heart.
The last thing is diplomacy, a negotiation is more important than operation. Agreed to promote the reconstruction of the relationship between the United States and its allies. And develop more friendly countries. A good relationship with other countries is very important, this is what people would like to see.
If the candidate can do things, which I said, very well, he/she will win the election.

4. International organizations
The United Nations introduced a resolution during the General Assembly's 62nd sessions in 2007 calling for a universal ban. The approval of a draft resolution by the Assembly's third committee, which deals with human rights issues, voted 99 to 52, with 33 abstentions, in favor of the resolution on November 15, 2007 and was put to a vote in the Assembly on December 18. Again in 2008, a large majority of states from all regions adopted a second resolution calling for a moratorium on the use of the death penalty in the UN General Assembly (Third Committee) on November 20. 105 countries voted in favor of the draft resolution, 48 voted against and 31 abstained.

NBA to alter traveling rules
I heard a news the day before yesterday. It is a NBA news. The news is about "NBA alter traveling rules". The new rule reads, in part: "A player who receives the ball while he is progressing or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball."(1) That means NBA players can take two steps before they have to stop, pass or shoot the ball. But throughout the NBA history, the rulebook said players could take only one step. This is wrong to alter the traveling rules.
This kind of alter rules is never happened in any league or in basketball world before. This is the first time that any league at any level in anywhere in the world that allowed players to take two steps(2). I think this is not right, though in the NBA history, a lot of superstars getting away with two steps, like Magic Johnson, Bob Cousy or Julius Erving. And in NBA today, there are a lot of superstars have the privilege. But the rules were not changed. This time, NBA altered the rule, it seems they did nothing, because NBA Superstars had privilege already. But the point is that NBA make the traveling legalize. Before, there are a lot of NBA reviewers discuss about the traveling the stars made and the NBA referees and high-level leaders say nothing about it. Now, the new rule make the traveling legalized. What can you say now? Nothing. This can make reviewers and fans to shut up. And to alter traveling rules seems it is for to aid scorers and make the league more exciting(3). "They go 20 feet to the hoop without dribbling one time," Legendary point guard Walt Frazier said. "Wilt [Chamberlain] would have averaged 100 points a game if they had let him do that."(4)
I also think this change is made for some of the stars. It is for to make stars, because NBA needs the next "Michael Jordan". As my personal opinion, Kobe is a little old, he is 31 years old. Although he is the no. 1 in the world now, NBA won't do too much things for him. So, let's bring up the next no. 1, which is Lebron James. I know that a lot of Lebron's fans will scold me. But I have to say, a lot of LeBron's layups and dunks are all traveling, which named and invented by himself, "the crab steps". This "crab steps", in most of the reviewers' eyes, is traveling. So NBA make it legalized, then people can't say anything.
To aid scorers, to make superstars, to make next Michael, all these things are not important. the most important thing, the thing that I care the most is that after the superstars fell custom with the traveling rules of NBA, how can the NBA Superstars solve the FIBA(5)'s rules.

My favorite American comic super hero
America is a country that it is full of super heroism. Most of the American children watch the comic of super hero. And all have their own favorite super hero. First, in America, there are two big comic companies, one is Marvel and the other one is DC. They have their own famous super heroes. For Marvel, they have Spider Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Wolverine, Thor and Hulk, etc. And for DC, they have Batman, Superman, Flash, Robin, Power Girl and Captain Marvel, etc. They are all good super heroes. But my favorite super hero is Batman. And I have some reasons why I like him.
The first reason is Batman is a normal man. Batman is a super hero with no super power. He is not like other super heroes. Most of the super heroes have super powers. For examples, Spider man was bit by a spider then he had the super power; Superman is from the other planet; Wolverine is mutant; Thor is God. But Batman is only a normal person, just like us. He doesn’t need the super power. He is brave, intelligent. Though he doesn’t have any super power, he can make a lot of tools, he can build his own super car, plane, boat and submarine.
The second reason is Batman doesn’t have a stupid weakness. Though he is a normal person, he does have a stupid clear weakness. But other super heroes have. For example, Superman, his weakness is the green stone from his planet and his journalist girlfriend. When there is green stone near him, his super power will be gone. Another example is Spider Man, his weakness is his girlfriend, when he lost his girlfriend his super power is gone. But Batman doesn’t have these problems, he is a normal person, there is no strange things can affect him. He knows that a super hero cannot have a normal person’s life. He need to Bruce Wayne in day life and need to be Batman in the night. And he cannot have girlfriends, because that only can put the girls in danger. He knows all that.
As a conclusion, in my opinion, Batman is the best super hero. He is normal, powerful, brave, intelligent and he always think for other people first. He is low key. He doesn’t like to show himself at the public place. He is the real super hero. He is the real man.

Kobe Bryant, half angle half devil
Kobe Bryant is the best basketball player in the world now. But, not all the people like him. Some people think he is an angle, but some people think he is a devil from the angle city. Never had a person who is successful as him bring a so extreme disputed in this world. There are a lot of questions about him. Is he a man of honor or a flunky? Is he the God on the court or the Lucifer on the court? All the people take each stick to their arguments.
After Kobe finished his high school, he decided to enter NBA. Not because of his family was poor. Because he thought he was ready for the professional games. He got a perfect body for playing in NBA. He got inherence to play professional games. And he did well. But we can found one thing that was Kobe had almost no friends. People thought he was weird because of his loneliness. We had many weird superstars in the history of NBA. But, we can’t find a second superstar who had been called weird because of his loneliness. A lot of people thought that he wanted to be the enemy of the whole world and he deserved it. But, I think people misread him. Before 12 years old, Kobe lived in many different cities. And since 1982, he went to Italy with his family. He came back to America until 1991. His English was bad. His schoolmates make fun about his way of talking. Nobody wanted to play with him. So, he kept away with them by instinct. This was a protection for himself. The only friend for Kobe is basketball. So the only thing he could do is to overmaster all the people.
People accept that Kobe is the king on the court. But he is the loser in other things. He didn’t want to share the ball to Shaq. He wanted to end the games by himself. That makes him selfish. He wanted to be the hero all the time. He could not accept one lose. That makes him bigoted. He has a mouth, but he use basketball as his language. He is a great man, but he doesn’t have great speeches. But, he had said: “though the whole world abandons me, basketball will be with me.”
But now, everything is going to be changed. Kobe is 30 now. That is the age for a boy to become the man. He has grown up these years. He became the real leader for his team. He has more friends now. He is the real king now!
At last, I want to finish my writing with a Kobe’s advertisement made by Nike.
“Love me or hate me, It’s one or the other. Always has been. Hate my game, my swagger. Hate my fade away, my hunger. Hate that I’m a veteran, a champion. Hate that. Hate it with all your heart. And hate that I’m loved, for the exact same reasons.”

something ahout me
Hello, everyone. I'm Yichuan Wang. And you can call me my English name, Connor. I'm a freshman of U-I. And my major is PS. That means Political Science. I like this subject. You learn how to think about things, how to link up with people. It teach you the macroscopic way of thinking. And after study of Politics, the best thing is that you can help the people who need help. It is better than giving money. Because giving money only can help a group of people, but make a good policy may help the people who all have the same problem.
Now tell you something about me. I like sport, I like play basketball. And I like Kobe Bryant and Lakers. They had just won the NBA Champion. I'm so happy about that. And I like watching sports games. For examples, like basketball, football, soccer, tennis, F1 and stamp the yard. They are all good games. If you haven't watch them before, I recommend you try them.
And I like to listen music, I listen all kinds of music. But I like the Hip Hop/Rap, Reggae, R&B and Rock more. I like Bob Marley. He is the King! He songs are Reggae and Reggae is the Father of Hip-hop and R&B. Bob Marley is from Jamaica. There were violence and drugs in that country. He used his songs to tell the young people get far away of drugs and encourage the young people to fight with violence.
And at last something about my family, I'm the only child in my family. I'm the only hope of my parents, So I should study hard, don't let them disappointed.
