Citizenship in Athens and Rome: Which was the Better System? 1. The idea of citizenship, or a status given by a government to its people, emerged in approximately 500 BCE. Citizens were responsible for playing significant roles in the life of the state or nation, but in turn were able to possess and benefit from certain rights. Compared to Athens, the Roman Republic's system of citizenship was better in the fact that it was more generous, although careful, in granting citizenship in which rights made the government much more organized.

Leho chavez states that in simple terms, citizenship for many is about the legal recognition that comes along with it, the formal membership in an organized political community (Chavez, 12). For those that are anti-immigration, citizenship is also about the rights, privileges and responsibilities (Chavez,12). There is a harsh effect when not being a citizen, since the 1996 welfare reform act made it harder for immigrants to achieve citizenship and also barred non-citizen immigrants from getting many social services like food stamps and medicare(Chavez, 13).

I believe US Constitution should amend naturalized citizens served as president in America.

Anybody can achieve the very highest in America, if only they work hard enough. Being American isn’t just a racial question – it’s also an aspiration.
A citizen of the United States is a person who was born in the U.S. Citizenship would come with the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as stated in the Declaration of Independence. Citizenship can be lost if one tries to take away an inalienable right from another citizen. Slavery is a prime example of this when southerners take away black people's liberties by using them for labor. Before being readmitted into the Union, a state must abolish slavery. Blacks and newly freed slaves should not be allowed to vote as they are uneducated and are not capable of casting an intelligent vote.

If we want to assure the American citizens won't lose their right to vote we have to educate them. Most of the time certain voting rights were taken away due to the fact congress did not believe Americans were educated enough to know what they were voting for. The American citizens that are more than likely to lose their voting rights will be poorly educated and they will be minorities. In order to protect their rights, they have to know their rights and be able to fight back. By educating these citizens we eliminate a major reason for taking away voting rights.
SATS and ACTS have been used for numerous years as a way to gauge a student’s academic success while in college. Students have the choice which test they would prefer to take and most colleges do not prefer one test over the other. There are a few key differences between the SAT and ACT, which may make one test more suitable than the other for those taking the tests. Many studies have proven that the SAT and ACT are not the best judge of future success, and that colleges should focus their applications more on past grades and accomplishments to decide which students should be accepted to their university. SATs and ACTs are not an effective measure of college readiness and future academic success.
Support involves relationships with family, friends, and communities which provide assistance, affirmation, and feedback (Anderson et al., 2012). The literature review revealed student veterans had diversified types of support: varied social connections on campus based on interest/disinterest (Griffin et al., 2015); veteran offices providing information and accompanying social support (Griffin et al., 2015; Heitzman et al., 2015; Schiavone et al., 2014); challenges with friendships with civilians and younger students (Rumann et al., 2010); preferred associations with military service members, veterans, or ROTC cadets after returning from deployments (Rumann et al., 2010); diminished friendships with classmates after deployment (Rumann et al.,

Basnet 4 Arnist Basnet Prof. Sherry Sharifian GOVT-2305-76427 July 28,2017 Birth-Right citizenship is the legal process of providing citizenship to every child born in the United States.
