“What is the
19th amendment” by Alex Palomeo, a blogger for Huffington Post, is
claiming that Texas Republicans are deeming women from voting, since Wendy
Davis is now running for Governor. Palomeo explains the examples of how
Republicans are disenfranchising women from voting. One by having an updated
id- which can be disadvantaging to women since they may be married, and won’t have
time to change their name on their id, once
their married. She also states that women have the correct documents stated if their
married, divorced, or/and a court ordered name change, which is discouraging to
many women since they are the ones that have to change their name while going through
marriage or divorce. Palomeo’s audience was targeted to women in Texas and also
women in general, since there is a woman running for a higher, greater position
of Texas and is an advocate for women right to have an abortion. Her belief is
to not have the required qualification of voting among women with ids, since it’s
easily discouraging to women and lowers women’s chance of voting, which is unfair, therefore I agree
that this new requirement for voting, shouldn’t be allowed. I’m a big fan of
Davis, and want her to win, but I feel like Texas republicans are scared of
Davis because she’s a female, and a strong advocate for getting more female
voters than male voters. I feel like they aren’t letting women have a chance at
running the state. Its intimidating to male politicans.

Blog 2#
From Huffington Post, Moises Serrano's blog titled "Obamacare: Does Obama Care about all Americans?" talks about the effects of Obamacare doesn't support Deferrent Action recipients such as himself, and is hurting immigrants that comes to America seeking affordable insurance when they need it. He thinks that Obama feels that immigrants aren't worthy of affordable healthcare, and if immigrants are willing to live in this nation, should have benefits just like every other citizen. Serrano feels that every immigrant that comes to America should have health insurance, in which he feels that Obama wants to preserve it for American citizens. He also feels that denying affordable health care to immigrants will cost the nation and will be the downfall of the nation. Serrano feels that if Obama is for immigrant-he should be for immigrants that need insurance as well. I believe that if there are immigrants are making a living in America, they should be able to have affordable benefits especially if its something that is uncontrollable, like one's health. Just like I would expect to have the same benefits as everyone else if i was living in a different country. I would want to have the same the same benefits because I would feel since i'm living in your country and i'm making a living by living in your country, i should at least get some affordable assistant. One's health is more important than anything else, and its sad that people have to worry about simply not breaking a leg or catching a cold because they don't have insurance.I wish that we have insurance like other countries were medical care cost little to none and medicine is cheap. Its depressing how people in America and immigrants have no insurance and can't afford medical care
