Support

Barack Obama, president

Joe Biden, vice president

These sources represent the Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates for the November 2008 election’s pre-kindergarten education proposal.

Audience and Agenda:

This source aimed to reach constituents as it was funded by Organizing for America, an organization supported by the Democratic Party. This bias shows because it states the plan, and follows up with why it should be implemented. It also is available for reference to see our current president’s plans.

Usefulness:

This source will be useful because it outlines, in detail, Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s zero to five plan and is my only source that serves that function. I will integrate it with my other sources because a lot of them show research to support the plan, and this source will follow them to show how it will be applied. I will show how Obama’s plan reflects the research, but also how it deviates from the findings in the research. For the most part, it stays consistent with research, but some funds could be distributed differently, as commented by Larry Schweinhart.
