Future First Man Does Not Help Hillary....

I have blogged earlier about what Hillary Clinton and Obama's dispute over Dr. King. Obama felt that she was taking away form the great things that Dr. King did. Former President Bill Clinton was caught napping during a MLK celebration.






This does not help Hillary at all. People can use this against her to prove that she and her family are insensitive about MLK's legacy. This will lose them a lot black votes. SLEEPING BEHIND MLK'S SON! WOW! THIS IS EMBARRASSING!!!!

I Did Not Do It

There have been many cases in the United States where people are convicted for crimes they did not commit. Recently people including my mom have been using DNA testing to prove convicted felons innocent. Tim Masters, from Fort Colons, Colorado will be released today at 9.30a.m. He was convicted for the murder of 37 year Peggy Hettrick in 1999. Tim Masters served 8 years for a crime he did not commit.



People serving in prison for crimes they did not commit is a huge problem in the United States. THIS NEEDS TO STOP! Many times this happens because of poor representation from lawyers. This also happens because of bad witnesses or a bad jury. The United States needs to work harder for a flawless justices system!

My New Blog

Hello my name is Devin Tyrelle and I am using this blog for my Contemporary World Issues Class. In my blog I will try to cover all of The North American News! I will try not to have a biased opinion, but that will be hard. If anyone agrees or disagrees with what I am saying please feel free to let me know. I would ask however that you refrain from using profanity on my blog.
Thank You!

Clinton & Obama
Obama made a comment about how Martin Luther King Jr. earned credit from being a
Civil Rights leader and fights for the rights of black people in America. There was a dispute when Clinton said that LBJ, a former president of The United States, was responsible for enacting the Civil Rights legislation.
She said, "Dr. King's dream began to be realized when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964"(CBSnews.com). Obama took offense to this because he felt that Clinton was taking away from Martin Luther King Jr.'s accomplishments.
