According to the Tenth Amendment of the constitution, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people”. There have been moments in history where Congress has implemented laws that states felt were unconstitutional. The Constitution gave states the ability to counter the federal government’s power through the Judiciary branch of government, when they feel a law is unconstitutional. The Founders of our nation gave Congress enumerated powers to pass legislation that needs to be abided by all states and citizens. At times Congress will overstep its powers by enacting laws that are unconstitutional and the states have the right to challenge those powers.
Brother took a lot of his own time to help teach Doodle things like to walk. Everyone said that Doodle would never be able to stand up, but brother was tired of lugging doodle everywhere so he taught him how to walk. ”I'm going to teach you to walk doodle”(Hurst 2). With everything that brother did to help out Doodle to become a normal a normal person meant a lot to Doodle. Doodle was the only thing
Doodles brother was embarrassed to have a not all there brother. It was very clear at the beginning of the book that the brother wanted doodle dead. His brother never wanted to be around him because he was scared to be made fun of. He wanted doodle to run and swim and play like all the other children
Here is my evidence. First reason the narrator is guilty of Doodle’s death is because he was ashamed of him. This is clearly shown when brother makes the statement on page 347 “I was ashamed of having a crippled brother.” This clearly shows the narrator's shame in Doodle. Another statement
Since the moment Doodle was born, Bother was always disappointed that Doodle didn’t share the same traits as him. Since Doodle needed a lot of care, Brother didn’t want him to get in the way of his own life. “so I began to make plans to kill him” (line 41) Brother didn’t want Doodle’s disabilities to get in his way, so he just wanted to get rid of him. This reveals Brother’s selfishness and how he only cares about what will benefit himself. “and showed him his casket” (line 103)
Doodle’s older brother only helps him for himself. He’s Embarrassed of having a brother like Doodle. “he was a outset and disappointment ever since he was born when I was six”(462). Doodle’s brother knew Doodle was going to be different from the very beginning but could never accept it. When Doodle got older
When the storm starts to get worse, they start to run, but Doodle falls behind. When Brother comes back for Doodle, all he sees is a lifeless corpse laying down by a tree. It was Doodle. He left Doodle behind and went ahead thinking he could escape the storm, then come back for Doodle, displaying selfishness. This is when Brother realizes that Doodle was the greatest gift of a brother, and that he would have appreciated Doodle more.
no one ever told him that he had to do it he did it because it was something that wanted to do brother showed his love to doodle by being one of the persons that believed in him everyone else said it hopeless there's no point in trying you are a mistake. Brother said i don't care i will try to help him he could have said no there where running home brother never laid hands one doodle when died there is no real facts saying that brother did kill him .In the story it never says that Brother was the reason why doodle died .nowhere in the book did i find a clear statement saying that brother was the reason that doodle died there for there is no real evidence stating that doodle died because of Brothers
Losing Doodle “It's okay to lose your pride over someone you love. Don't lose someone you love over your pride. ”(Unknown) Pride is a powerful thing. It can kill and raise up, it can keep you from admitting your wrong.
“One day I took him up to the barn loft and showed him his casket, telling him how we all believed he would die.” Why would he foreshadow upon Doodle’s death, is he doing this to make Doodle lose hope or is he doing this to make Doodle believe that there is a way he can live. I believe that he is doing this to make Doodle lose hope because he is showing no affection for Doodle whats so ever. “I would teach him how to run, to swim, to climb trees, and to fight.” He is pushing Doodle to hard, which has its ways of teaching a lesson to brother.
Brother planned to spend his entire life with Doodle, They "decided that when [they] were grown [they'd] live in Old Woman Swamp and pick dog-tongue" (Hurst). He wanted Doodle to have pride in himself and be able to do everything Brother wanted to do with him. Brother had pride in Doodle since he was first able to stand on his own and walk. He taught Doodle out of his own selfishness, he was ashamed of having an "invalid" brother and wanted to have "someone to race to Horsehead Landing, someone to box with, and someone to perch within the top fork of the great pine behind the barn, where across the fields and swamps you could see the sea" (Hurst). Brother was ashamed of the way he felt and his self-indulgent efforts for Doodle.
The quote “He seemed all head with a tiny body which was red and shriveled like an old man’s”, Gave the reader a view of how fragile Doodle’s body is. They thought at first, he was not going to make it, but he ended up surviving. When the mom explains to the older brother, Doodle is different and will not be able to do things that other kids do, he is then disappointed at having Doodle as his brother. He wants to be able to do things with Doodle, like he would be able to do with the other kids,
Given all the evidence in the story there’s no doubt about it that Doodle’s death was because of his brother’s dislike for him, self-pride, and decisions when Doodle needed his brother most. The Narrator is responsible for his brother, Doodle's, death because he never really liked him to begin with. William Armstrong (Doodle) was born a disabled child when the narrator was 6 years old. The narrator was wishing for a brother that he would be able to do things with and have fun with, but when the narrator was
At first the narrator sees Doodle as a crazy frail brother but as we move into the story, we can observe a lot of varying feelings brother has towards Doodle. Brother described Doodle as unbearable, an invalid brother, a brother who was not there at all, so he started
Recently, I have seen an article with a title “More than 190,000 bachelors, masters and doctors are unemployed” from Vietnam’s newspaper. Interviewers from the article claimed that most companies ask for work experiences. As a full-time student, school work already occupied majority of your time, so it is quite a challenge to also go to work. And when you get the degree and find out the company you are applying for preferring work experience would you still think investing in a college degree is worth it? Eventually, most Americans will graduate with college debts.
