Answer to Question 1
Answer: An ideal response will:
1. Note that, generally speaking, conservatives favor the status quo and making change only slowly, whereas liberals are more in favor of rapid change to promote equality.
2. Discuss why this means that liberals would more likely favor same-sex marriage than conservatives.
3. Indicate that there might be some differences between conservatives and social conservatives. While both conservatives and social conservatives would likely oppose same-sex marriage, they would do so on different grounds. Social conservatives tend to believe that same-sex marriage is inconsistent with the traditional moral teachings that government should promote.
Answer to Question 2
Answer: An ideal response will:
1. Note that 15 percent of the population is an immigrant, and that many of them are Hispanic.
2. Discuss how this may affect politics in a number of ways. For example, policies will likely reflect the needs and concerns of this growing minority. In some cases, governments have to decide whether to conduct business solely in English or in Spanish as well.
3. Discuss other policies that are important to immigrants more broadly, such as immigration policy.
