Day 5

Today in class we learned that the "Message to Garcia" took place during the Spanish-American war, which took place mostly in Cuba. The President at the time needed to send a message to Garcia, so he made Roman deliver it. Roman did not complain nor make excuses. He worked hard to get the message delivered.  The author of this started printing out millions of copies so people would read them. We then talked about voting and how important it is it vote. We learned that only a little more than half of people vote. A lot of elderly people vote and younger people don't because they make up excuses not to vote. When our parents were growing up the voting age was 21, but it was changed to 18. I think the voting age should be 16. If at 16 we are reliable  enough to drive we should be able to vote.
