One of the topics covered in the opening sections was ideology, and how it helps explain political conflict. Conflict in presidential elections is often ideological as well, and of course there is plenty of ideological disagreement over the subject of your 1000 word essay - health care.
In order to combine all of these, I want you to give me at least 150 words on the ideological conflict between Obama and Romney over health care. Search through their respective positions, and related statements on the issue and describe where they seem to fit on the ideological spectrum. Try to go beyond the typical liberal/conservative debate and encompass any subtleties each sides view of the subject might embrace.
The goal of this assessment is to get you increasingly familiar with the terminology used to describe ideological positions in general, to get use caught up with the presidential race, and to get you moving on your 1000 word assignment.
