Hi! My name is John Martineu. Im 18 and a student of Dover high School in Dover Delaware. I have been assigned a final term project. We are to do a 20 page turn paper on different subjects. I am doing one on the collapse of communism. Since you coservatives know alot about this, I was wondering if you could help me out.
First Id like to know what communism is and how it is different from socialism? Second I would also like to know about why Russia collapsed. Third could you tell me why you refer to certain people such as Ann Goodman and Helen Thomas as Communists? Finally Id like to know the advatages of Captialism.
Every bit of information will help me with typing this up. Its due in a month and I hope to pass with flying colors. I might even post it on Freerepublic when it's done. Thanks alot guys
John

then include some pictures and a diarama My 8 y.o. had diarama the other night, and took some Pepto Bismol for it.
You are a fake, too much misspelling, even more than my 8 y.o.

Have you started with a dictionary?
A basic net search?
BTW, it is "term paper" and not "turn paper."
Google or DogPile the following:
COMMUNISM COLLAPSE
COMMUNISM SUMMARY
COMMUNISM "STATUS IN THE WORLD"
COMMUNISM CURRENTLY
COMMUNISM INFLUENCES
COMMUNISM WEAKNESSES
That search should find you enough material for 12 term papers. Does your school have tutors? You might do well to seek one out in writing.
Probably outlining would be good to essential for you.
There is a great writing site called OWL--Here's a link:
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/index2.html You can get handouts on how to write such a paper; summarizing; THESIS STATEMENTS, outlining etc.
I'd suggest distilling the net search down to 3-5 articles, no more than 7 for a long paper; no more than 3-5 for a shorter to medium paper.
Print the articles. Underling and mark them up in a way that it's easy and quick to see what points and data are most important to your THESIS.
You can cut the points up with sissors or just write an outline from looking them over and arranging them in your mind. Or, you can arrange cut pieces out on a large surface.
Amplify the outline somewhat. Probably paragraphs of 3-5 sentences would be fitting. I like paragraphs to stick strickly to one thesis sentence. Some literary types seem to allow or favor paragraphs more like St Paul's.
I suspect your teacher would like some personal response to your data near the conclusion. And, probably a few sentences about THEREFORE, WHAT?
Blessings,

Okay, for McCarthyism, Google the word "venona". You'll find some surprising info there. Look up the words "glasnost," "detente," and "perestroika."
For background, review the following: Karl Marx, Fredrich Engels, Leon Trotsky (Lev Bronstein), Mao Tse Tung, and Vladimir Lenin. That will give you the basis of understanding communism. You do have a tall order here, and if I were doing it (even in high school), I wonder if 10 pages would be enough... Good luck.

A friendly hint, rationality, so you can at least make the troll hunting a bit more sporting for us That's right. The kittens like to play with their prey before they kill it.
To: johnmartineu
Do you mean "Amy Goodman" from Pacifica (Democracy Now!)? If so, compare her talking points to the variety of books at AKPress' website and see if she doesn't resemble a good lil' commie.

could you be a little more specific. About which parts? The Cubans' valiant fight against the Berlin Airdroppers, or Jenna McCarthyism?

The kittens must be taking a nap.Naw, this troll isn't worth the normal zot, so the mod is just walking around scuffing his feet on the carpet for a couple of minutes to generate enough static to fry this pinhead's ten functioning brain cells.

This is a troll! This DUer doesn't know how to look up the collapse of Communism on Google, but knows who Amy Goodman is and that she is considered a commie here on FR.
TROLL!

I used to teach freshman English at the University of Houston. If your first essay for me were of the quality of your post here, I'd advise you to drop my class and take it at Houston Community College, where standards are notoriouxly lax. With that substandard grammar and utter disregard for spelling, there's no way you'd pass a freshman English course.
