Comparative Politics

Politics can be tricky, and things get even harder to understand when there are alternative facts involved. Alternative facts can turn things around for entire movements, make it hard to know whether or not you are getting the real truth, and compromise the integrity of someone when they believe in something. If you have ever heard an alternative fact before, you will know that they can be really negative and may even seem to be slightly absurd because of the way that people have chosen to use them.

Because of these misunderstandings the Quick and Dirty Guide Team is proud to present our guide to America's messy primary elections! This book will walk you through the "whys" and the "hows" of our candidate selection process.

Mit zunehmendem Alter wird jeder nicht nur mit der eigenen Sterblichkeit konfrontiert, sondern erlebt Tod und Sterben in der Familie, bei Freunden und Bekannten.

Varje vecka kommer en rykande färsk intervju med en omdebatterad kändis. En utmärkt kompass för dagens invecklade politiska klimat! Mauricio Rojas har alltid varit lite av en politisk outcast. Hans begrepp "utanförskapsområden" har blivit till politisk skåpmat vid det här laget, men tidigare i sin karriär var han en kontroversiell debattör. Så till den grad att han tvingades flytta utomlands. Hur ser han själv på det samtida politiska klimatet i Sverige? Vad tänker han om valet? Fredagsintervjun är en politiskt obunden podcast som i varje avsnitt intervjuar en aktuell kändis.

All of these states are semi-sovereign, as they have all transferred some governmental sovereignty to federal institutions. This implies that the EU and US are commensurate. I subject these inferences to critique in my booklet on American and European federalism.

Silly senatorial satire and plenty of pundit parody. Written a few days into the government shut down of 2013. Pokes fun at all 100 Senators at the time. Although the house probably should have been lambasted as well, this shines light on the absurdity that is our government and how it does NOT work sometimes...I still really do love America really I do!
