Quotes From George Orwell's In Cold Blood

MIP 1: This meme connects to the book because the the government uses what they cherish most to sway who they vote for and they use the voters love of TV to make them vote for who is “right”. SIP 1:The government teaches the people to vote based on looks so that they can keep the same people or similar people in power. STEWE 1: In the book we see that the voters often vote for the better looking candidate. We see that a the better looking the more they will be voted for. "’I voted last election, same as everyone, and I laid it on the line for President Noble. I think he 's one of the nicest-looking men who ever became president.’ ‘Oh, but the man they ran against him!’” (93). STEWE 2: We also see that the government puts a less attractive candidate
