Functionalism or Marxism?

I believe functionalism has withstand and will continue to withstand our society because functionalist goals are to maintain social stability, keep society running smoothly, and resolve conflicts. So they believe in everything running smoothly in a society and to solve a problem as soon as it happens instead of the problem lingering and causing bigger problems. Functionlistes magic word is consensus because they're consensus about the goals and values of the social structure. The also believe that the individual has to submit to this higher order, which exists outside themselves which was their before the persons birth and will continue to be with them after death. Marxist view on the other hand believes that the capitalist class shapes the rest of the society which is total b.s in my opinion because people are taught by their parents about how they should act and treat people and not by the capitalist class. So if I was to choose which theory has withstand our society and will continue to withstand our society it'll be Fuctionalism.

Online classes

I like taking online classes because it gives you a chance to increase your GPA as well as meet your requirements to graduate. There are also some cons to online classes which is finding time to complete the assignments on a daily basis. Like for us step-uppers we have four Aice classes to worry about already and if we play sports or are involved in clubs it's pretty hard to complete the assignments for your regular classes and study their material and complete online assignments in the time the online teacher wants us to. I mean I find time to complete everything as well as focus on basketball, but I just wish my work load was a little less. All I have to say guys is stay positive and don't give up and everything will turn out great in the end with us getting into the Top colleges with our tremendously high GPA's and incredible Sat scores. Then we will be able to get a great paying job and will be able to buy things we always dreamed of buying. So stay Focus step-up crew :)

2012 Republican primaries

The Republican primaries are the Selection processes In which voters Of the Republican party Will choose their Nominee for President of the United states in the 2012 election. There are 2286 delegates and a candidate needs 1,144 delegates to win. The two leaders of the 2012 Republican primaries are Matt Romney and Newt Gingrich. Mitt Romney is an American Businessman and politician. He was the 70th governor of Massachusetts from 2003 to 2007 and this year he plans on being our next president of the united states. Newt Gingrich is an American Politician, author, Political consultant, who served as The 58th Speaker Of The U.S house of Representatives from 1995 to 1999. He represented Georgia's 6th Congressional district as a republican from 1979 until his resignation in 1999. He now plans on competing against Mitt Romney for the republican spot to go up against Barrack Obama to become the president of the united states. Both of these men are highly popular in the republican party and it'll be a close race until the republican convention on August 27,2012- August 30,2012 where they will make the final decision of who they will elect to represent the Republican party in the presidential election. This Republican convention will be held in Tampa Florida and the Republican candidates will be given their last chance to say stuff that will persuade the republican party voters to vote for them. So this will be a very important convention and a lot of steam from the two candidates since one of them will lose their chance to become the next president of the united states. So this is some interesting information about the Republican primaries.
