1. Government affected my life yesterday when i was told when to come home for dinner. Without government, i would not have to listen to any form of authority, and would have the right to govern myself and decide for myself when i came home.

2. Both of my parents pay close attention to politics. They both closely follow major political campaigns and regularly watch political television series such as This Week with G. Stephanopoulos and The Colbert Report. Both guardians have their own views and ideas on politics and political figures, and are able to have friendly arguments that express their opinions.

3. A common event that my generation participates in is watching the Superbowl. Whether people enjoy the sport of football or not, it is a very popular media event that is sure to have a large audience turnout. Almost everyone i know participates in watching the Superbowl and the traditions that come with it.
