Slide 8 WestCal Political Science 5 Western Political Thought 2016WestCal Academy
Political Science 5 - Western Political Thought provides an overall perspective of major political movements of history from the rising of Egyptian, Greek and Roman Empires to Fascism and Communism as seen by great political thinkers from Plato, Aristotle, and St. Augustine, Machiavelli, Marx, and Lenin. Students will analyze the most important ideas and theories that have been developed from the time of the ancient Greeks to the present day. Students will learn that the American Founding Fathers designed a viable representative government by first dedicating themselves to careful study of the political philosophy of Europeans, with particular attention given to British political thinkers from the 16th and 17th century. The founding fathers focused primarily on the natural rights of man, which in turn varied according to the individual philosopher studied. Over the course of their study, the founding fathers openly discussed their opinions with one another so as to properly bring forth differing views in order to prudently construct a government that would protect individual liberty, as well as determine what was required of government to protect civil liberties. The class is taught from the perspective of industry professionals with knowledge of how classical and modern political continues to influence American government. Students will learn of multiple career options relating to the field of political science.
2. Black Republicans Although most African American politicians are democrats, it seems that we see more African Americans in the spotlight in the Republican Party. A lot of the African American Republicans have been elected by people within the Republican Party and not by the people. It’s great to see African Americans in positions of power but we must consider that maybe a bit of manipulation is going on.
3. The history Democrats have had a stronghold on the black vote ever since the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Up until that time Republicans had the black vote. After all, it is the party of Abraham Lincoln. It was only until FDR ran and offered African Americans financial relief during the depression with his New Deal that they made the switch. African Americans have been overwhelmingly democrat ever since.
4. Why democrat? A lot of the reason African Americans align themselves with democrats is their emphasis on helping the poor and disenfranchised. Such as Welfare and Food Stamps. A high percentage of African Americans are in a low tax bracket and feel that these programs are needed for survival. Republicans are more about the individual and feel that programs where money is given to help the poor are more like handouts. To most African Americans, Republicans seem to have less sympathy for the struggles they may or may not encounter due to their race.
5. The tides of change The Republicans are gunning hard for the African American vote. For the past decade or so, republicans have been trying to secure the African American vote by highlighting African Americans in positions of power. They have not made a huge change in their policies though, and most African Americans remain loyal to the Democratic party. It is supposed that Republicans don’t need all African American voters. They may be trying to just get a margin of crossover voters to put them over the top.
