Stupid Critique of the Stupid Horse :P
In the sample essay "The 'Stupid Horse" I found many interesting portions of it that grasped my attention. What i found was a great tool was how the writer would bring up the story of the horse, in order to ensure the relevance between the events in Arnold's life and how he confronts them to the theme of the story. Each certain event in Arnold's life correlated with a part in the story. They weren't any random event either, they were carefully chosen part that had similar plot to that of the horse story. The essay isn't a bunch of random events from the Arnold's life with sections from the story put throughout the story, it has a chronological flow to it so the reader isn't confused why the horse was nothing but bones before it even drowned and why Arnold was in Reardan before he had the talk with his math teacher. The work in this paper is very convincing because it has a well-organized structure to it with a very stern thesis that can be proven easily. The evidence that is grabbed from the book is great. It isn't portions of a quote on adds any unnecessary extra information to it. It might have some grammar or punctuation errors here and there but they aren't too major that it disrupts the flow of the essay.

Obama Care For Native Americans
Since entering in office, Barack Obama had met with many tribal cheifs in order to disscuss disputes and issues and has dealt with most of them. He has signed many new laws and executive orders in order to improve the living conditions and education for Native Americans. Many land disputes hve been resolved and new educational benefits have been granted to tribes across the U.S.

During the presidents State of the Union Adress, there was a subject the President spoke about that caught my interest. The part when he spoke about new, cleaner energy sources was a great relieve to hear. When the president mentioned that he would put more money and attention towards businesses that were into finding new cleaner energy sources. I was intesrested about this because despite the fact that space probes have found other planets with some form of habitable surface, it will be still decades or centuries before we find another planet that is 100% or so identical to Earth, and tons more years before we are able to colonize it. So with that in note, right now focusing on cleaning and helping the planet we currently live on should be a major priority.Obama was right about taking the money, that would've been given to oil companines, and giving to industries that are focusing on solar, water and wind energy. Also adding that, when Obama stated that it be better to pass a patent reform bill so there would less time and resources wasted on getting the, on what I'm guessing, paperwork and fees and have more those getting the work done. "Climate change is a fact", Obama stated this, so with that in mind if we want our summers to be considered warm and sunny then we must work on our climate.
