Current Events Discussion

Let's start our class today by discussing the results of last night's New Hampshire primary. I am posting links to a couple of article about the results in case you need to read a bit before we have our discussion. Since your other assignments for today involve a bit of writing, I'm not going to have you write and post for this one just participate in the conversation, make a comment or two, and you will earn a 100 as if you had written something brilliant.

What do you make of these results?

Why did New Hampshire voters send such a different message than those in Iowa?

How significant do you think this outcome will be? What's next?

New York Times -- Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders win New Hampshire

Washington Post -- Trump, Sander Roll to Victory
