Explain a U.S. Political Issue
20
I will explain any political issue from an even-handed, non-partisan perspective, using language which is accessible even to people who don't keep up on politics at all.
PLEASE NOTE: I will do my best not to favor either side in my explanation. Please perform the same courtesy for me. :) Sometimes one person or group will come off looking better or worse, and that's life. It's a reflection on them personally - not on you, their constituents, their voters, or their political party at large.
I'll provide a brief but detailed explanation, including what both sides have said about the issue and whether their stories have been independently corroborated as of the date I complete the task. I'll also try to provide links to one or two salient new stories. The news stories are selected based on their relevance and importance - for example, a link to the first news outlet to break the story, or a detailed timeline of when news items related to the story broke.
Training & Qualifications
I am a news junkie and lover of all things political, who lives right in the center of it all - Washington DC. I believe that it's vital to try and understand politics and to come to common understanding on issues, rather than have knee-jerk reactions based on personal predisposition. I also know that in today's news environment it's hard to stay on top of things, even with the best of intentions. Let me do the dirty work for you!
