It's+Even+Worse+Than+It+Looks


 * 1000 Word Report**

I want you to develop a topic for your 1000 word report around something related to ths recently published book about polarization in the contemporary Congress. This is the book:

//Mann, Thomas E. and Norman J. Ornstein. It's Even Worse Than it Looks: How the American Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism. 2012. New York: Basic Books.//

The book attempts to determine what factors are causing the current dysfunction in government. The authors are well regarded and experienced journalists, so their observations should be taken seriously.

Over the course of this semester, I will ask a few questions out of the book. I also want you to use it as the basis for your 1000 word report. You don't have to agree with the point they are making. But whatever you do, I want it supported. Use at least three references. Also use MLA format.

I want it turned into two places. To me through a link I provide labeled 1000 word report and in a folder provided labeled written assessment. If you plagiarize, you will receive a 0 for this assignment.
