5-7 Different ones.

1: He stood up for all African Americans, giving a speech to all people, speaking for freedom

2:Martin Luther king was a proud leader of the American civil rights movement.

3: It was shocking for a guy to receive his freedom in a peaceful way, usually people who want freedom wants violence.

4: One of the greatest speech givers in U.S. history because of the famous speech,"I have a dream."

5: Martin Luther King Jr. was the first person ever to receive the Noble Peace Prize. For his work and effort to end racism, slavery, and disobedience with just words.

Why do people have a natural inclination to look for a leader?

For me to answer this question, I will say whatever I think about this question. (Even though I don't really know what natural inclination actually means, but I know it's something about act)

People do want a leader, every movement that ever happens. Nobody wants to be left behind. This is just like a school of fish, when the leader gets hunted by a hook, the school of fish just separates. That is somewhat the reason why everybody wants a leader, the members do not know what to do and they go wildly out of control. It is weird, nobody knows what they're supposed to do, It's like their life is just depending on the leader. Nothing else. Everybody will fight to just get one, just like how everybody is now. Just to get a presidential leader.

I am going to answer such a kewl question =p

Students Please respond to the below question--

Do you think that students are misunderstood by parents and teachers? Why or why not?

________________________________________________

Students are most misunderstood by adults and teachers often, because adults think they know everything and they also think they have all the experience what has happened. When that happens, adults do not believe you, they do not know everything. For example: The teacher has said,"you don't have to do this, this is for tomorrow night.", and when the student goes home... The parents say this," No! This clearly says tonight!" So yes, students are misunderstood a lot of times.

Elmo's World

9/17/08

There was many boring times back in the summer of 2007, The only awesome activity back then what to do was the Pokemon Websites and games, The Pokemon Crater was the very best until it had shut down. Before that, when It was down for a day for a fix of maintenance, I looked at my Pokemon gaming pile. I found an awesome looking Pokemon Card. I might have tried something different, and I also had a feeling that this Pokemon Game will be fun. I wanted to try this game, I kept looking at the Pokemon Card: Electivire. I read it and obviously... I didn't understand anything that this Electivire card did. So then, I wanted to play more and more, really bad, every minute. I went to the store, to find a Pokemon deck for starters, I found one and bought one. Right after that, when I came back home. I immediately opened my starter deck and went straight to the manual. I read the instruction manual, I was still confused how to play, I thought I would never know how to play. I had no hope in myself to play this actual game. I had an idea, maybe I had some friends from school that can ever teach me. I had a little hope in myself. The next day I went to school, I asked some friends how to play this game, after that... I started to understand! I learned the hard steps to learn, I read the easy parts after that, Before you know it, I had learned how to play. Pokemon was seemed it was never that hard to learn. I learned more and more, the basic rules to
the advanced rules. I kept reading the rule book all night, all day, and all the time. Day after day, in a week, I've been wanting to play really bad. I've been trying to look for any pokemon players, but no, nobody plays I had thought of. Then, I had a bunch of hope in myself, but it vanished again. So I decided to quit or sell my cards. I just wanted to read the rulebook again, one more time if theres any info on what to do if you don't have any players in your local area. But, I did hear about this website called Go-Pokemon, So I wanted to check whatever is out. I looked and I heard there was a event called league. I was suspicious about it, I looked for one in my area, I kept at my Electivire card. I kept looking at it, It was my card of hope. I was intrested in this so called league they had. I had went there the next hour. So I did have hope. I was really happy, after since I started going to this pokemon league, I have met many great friends. Now I am not bored anymore, I'm am really glad I had found this Electivire. I thank the card. Every week after another, Saturday was my favorite day ever. I could never wait for every Saturday, it was always something new that happened. Each day, I kept making new friends and rivals. That's what kept me going to play Pokemon, Rivals. Because once I had lost to them, It makes me want to practice and get them back next week. Also that's what makes Pokemon fun, its addicting and a really enjoyable game. And it kills time also, I just wanted to keep learning more and more after I lost a match, to see what mistakes I have made during that time. I reread my Electivire card in my deck of cards, and I saw Pokemon Company on it. So I wondered what that really meant, I googled it and found these websites called the Pokemon Forums. I just looked at the
Pokemon Help, I clicked on it, asked some people, and had learned what to do and not to do. Many times, I have been there almost everyday, been creating many decks of cards, and going to league every weekend. That is how I am myself now. Pokemon has changed my life so far in a good way so far.
