The United States is a democracy. That is, a nation with a government by the people. Every day in the United States there are hundreds of decisions which must be made by the government to keep the nation running smoothly. It would be impossible for the American people to vote on every political issue, so we elect representatives to conduct the complicated business of running our nations, our states, and our towns. This program ‰ÛÒ with full-color, narrated presentations ‰ÛÒ helps us to understand the nature of elections; it explains who is eligible to vote, how candidates for office are chosen, and how elections are carried out. An interactive test allows users to gauge their knowledge. The Resources section contains information that can be printed and saved, including biographies and pictures of all U.S. presidents. And the interactive activities make learning fun. Students can even hold an election right on the computer! Contains comprehensive Teacher Guide. Grades 2-7.
