Nicole Doyle  State: Florida  Political View: Moderate  Representatives:  Congress member i most agree with: Dean Cannon  Dean Cannon

 I most agree with: My views are closely aligned with Dean Cannon: · Job creation- believes government should get out of the way, private enterprise creates jobs, government does not. · Illegal immigration- he believes in enforcing current immigration laws and defending our borders, rather than playing patty cake with illegal immigrants so we don't hurt their feelings.

 Five interesting facts about Florida: · Was the 27th state to be admitted to the Union · Florida is the only state that has 2 rivers with the same name, Withlacoochee. One is north central Florida, and the other is in central Florida. · Is the 4th most populous state in the U.S. · St. Augustine is the oldest European settlement in North America. · World’s first scheduled passenger service airline flight went to Tampa.  Five issue related facts:  1. Cyber bullying mainly occurs in middle school students  2. Eating disorders mainly occurs with females, from teens to women, but also occurs in boys, and men  3. The three main types of eating disorders are: Bulimia, Anorexia, and Binge.  4. Immigrants these days are usually Hispanic or Mexican, and come for many different reasons like: Money, Financial Security, Good Education for their Child/Children, and they get to own their own home.  5. there are many different methods to capital punishment, but Lethal injection is becoming more popular and is being used more often these days.

Issues: 1.Capital Punishment

I do agree with Capital punishment. I believe in this because there is a reason why people are being punished the way they are, and it is their fault. They made that bad decision, to cost their life, or even life in prison. Life in prison is just as bad as being put to death because sometimes living every say, in prison is as bad as it can get. You have to suffer with your consequences from your decision every day, because of the choice you made. That is why it is important to always make good decisions. I only believe in capital punishment for some cases, but they have to be severe. It all depends on what they did, to decide if they should suffer capital punishment.

2. Immigration

I also believe in the immigration rules we have. I think that immigrants should not be allowed in the U.S illegally, one because it is illegal, and two because sometimes they are not coming here for the right cause. It is proven that the more immigrants that have been in the U.S, the higher the crime rate is. It is usually for drugs, and theft. I also agree with this because most immigrants come here and steal jobs that us Americans can be using to get a profit, but they are using them, and they aren't even a part of our country. The other most common reasons they come here is for financial security, they get to own their own home, education here is much better for their children, and they get to participate in larger community activities, and take part. If they want it so bad, they should save up the money to come here legally, and they can have all of that stuff, that they want too.

3. Cyber bullying

I strongly disagree with cyber bullying. I do not understand the point of bullying all around. Most kids do it because it makes them feel good, and feel like they have more control, or are in control of something. Cyber bullying is horrible because some people don't understand what it leads to. It makes kids feel worthless, and some end up committing suicide. Nobody should have to take their own lie because of how mean other kids can be. Cyber bullying takes place over IM, text messaging, email, or even over pictures. Most of the time, the victims don't even know who is bullying them. I believe that bullying should be taken more seriously than it is. More and More schools are taking part in prevention activities, and being more aware, but all of them need too. Bullying and cyber bullying takes place the most in middle school, 7th and 8th grade. In some cases, the victim has had enough, and wants revenge and takes it out in anger, which has led to a columbine. There are many different ways, and cases of bullying and cyber bullying, and i definitely disagree with bullying, it is so wrong.

4. Eating Disorders

I really think that people with eating disorders should really get help; it could affect their future. It also could affect their everyday life! Some people with eating disorders deny it, or don't believe they have one, but others know they have one. In any case of having an eating disorder, you should get help immediately. I really feel bad for people that are, have and are going to experience and eating disorder because everyone has some beauty. The only thing that counts in what is on the inside. It doesn’t matter what you look like on the outside, but the only thing that matters in what is within. I also believe it is the person's choice, but it really should be helped.
