All around the world..



After looking at the demographics of different places I saw that I had questions on somethings.
In some of the demographics I would see that that obviously the age ranges varied and in some ages there were higher percentages of people , does that mean that more people were born during their time rage? If so why was that?

Is the population in California and Texas bigger because they are border states?


I was looking at the demographics in America on American Fact finder. On here I was able to look at statistics on many different things like the percentages of the different races, populations in different states, age and sex, and also education. I found this very helpful to my learning what there is in America through numbers.

I had to answer the following question:

1. Explain how a particular demographic may be impacted by—or could impact—the election of one of the candidates for President.



Well for this question I can't really say how they demographics would affect the elections, I would have to say that it depends on who is a Democrat or Republican. I know that there are many in both parties. Something that I can say is that if there are people that want something different they will vote for Barrack Obama because he is African-American, and he would be the first African -American as a president. There may be a lot of people who don't want the same thing they want to see something knew. There are also many people who are already accustomed to the old ways and don't want change. Change to them might not be something that will have a positive but negative outcome in the end, so those people might vote for MCcain. They are so used to something that they say something knew will ruin everything, but in reality that is a fallacy of tradition, which is when people think that if something has been done a certain way for many years as long as they can remember it cannot be done any other way , which is not true. People do things out of the ordinary all of the time those can be good or bad. I saw that in the populations the whites have more people than any other race including African-American, that could have and impact in the elections depending on the view of the whites.
