An article posted this Wednesday on the New York Times called  " DealBook: Will It Be Billionaire vs. Billionaire in the 2020 Election?"   The elections of 2020 are being described as "billionaire vs billionaire." This article talks about Mr Bloomerg, a 77 year old billionaire who is running for presidency. According to this news, Mr. Bloomerg has many obstacles to win the elections, since he has been talking in inappropriate ways about woman, has history of political baggage and a record of championing law enforcement policies that disproportionately targeted black and Latino men. However I believe that U.S. elections should not be based or titled in those terms. (Billionaire vs billionaire) because the country.s elections are in matter of which one of the many candidates knows more about U.S. economy, politics, and its population, not about how much money each candidate has or how may votes they can buy.

As said by this article, President Donald Trump and the protagonist of the new movie "The Joker" have many similarities, and in some way tells how this movie was a influenced by U.S. politics. In one hand the joker is gaining popularity and becoming someone recognizable for the bad actions he has committed, and the huge controversy that surround him and his crimes, int the other hand we have his followers who is mostly people who hate white rich people. Now comparing Mr. Trump we can see that he also gained his followers for things he said that a majority of people did not see as correct. I absolutely agree that they both have things in common and that the now President can bee seen as the joker in real life and most of the population can also realize that Trumps followers are like Arthur's (the joker) followers, people with the same disgusting interests who also are against a part of their same population, in this times the populations that has been hated are people that

The national biggest physician's groups are concerned about the use of e-cigarettes, for underage vaping and several types of consumers, like adolescents. They are trying to regulate the sales of electronic cigarettes, principally to prevent younger generations to get addicted to flavored nicotine and eventually to begin smoking more and more. The vape industry is already regulated by the FDA, however each year more underage teenagers are getting into this "epidemic" and many of them declare that they like vaping because it has different fruity flavors, such as:grape, mint, strawberry, etc. for this specific reason, the Government wants to ban flavored nicotine so that teenagers do not feel attracted to vaping by the flavor inside the chemical. A lot of people have a huge lack of knowledge about vaping products that is many people might feel like flavored nicotine is less harmful than actual cigarettes and other vaping products.

    Blog4 Nancy B  " Friendship across political lines" is blog discussing whether it is okay to be friends with people who have different political points of view and if it is seen as a betrayal. The intended audience is everyone who has basic political knowledge since this blog talks about that. I do agree with the author, he states that the two characters he is talking about are a good example for us to keep doors open for people who think differently, like conservatives and liberals, democrats and republicans. A great way to support his point was contrasting and comparing  them both with things they said about LGBTQ rights and restrictions, it shows that even when they know the other person is not like-minded they do not mind being respectful and even friends. Another way he provides credibility are the mentions of the pictures and the specific place the two characters were seen at.       The blog was very well done, I agreed with lots of statements the author made

The following editorial commentary was mainly about a U.S. judge who by having a very controversial expression towards president Donald Trump was suspended for around six months, the authors explains the several posts judge Kwan wrote on facebook. The article itself makes us think if either it was right to suspend him or not.  Some of the people giving their opinion in this case were the judge's lawyer, though the audience that the author was referring to might be other judges and people related to the jury. The author has some credibility though the commentary might have had some more information with respect to the posts, like actual pictures of it and the replies or thoughts of president Trump. Overall he have plenty of examples so it looks and sounds credible when reading it. The logic of the work was well provided, it explained the reasons of the suspension and it says that it was not the very first time the judge had been suspended for expressing himself in a way is not corre
