"Propaganda and public information play various roles in the democratic society during wartime. for instance, propaganda during the war was used to solidify public opinion towards participation in World War 1. Not only was Woodrow Wilson highly aware of the amounts of Americans that would end up dead, but he also realized that the war would result in rationing and high taxes. Therefore, to avoid the weariness of war, he needed to persuade the public to make sacrifices and to tie the support for war essentially with the support of the nation. However, one could also argue that Wilson's action was far from democratic as he believed having an opposing opinion was anti-American. Wilson, therefore, came off to be a hypocrite as he placed too much emphasis on how America was "fighting for democracy", only to ignore the fact that no democracy was given to people with differed perspectives. Unified public support is important, but to make the support mandatory is inherently undemocratic although effective".

annnnnddd complete I thought as I dropped my pencil and smiled at my work before Taylor's greedy hands immediately snatched the paper away 

Her eyebrows creased in focus as her eyes scanned through the looseleaf paper

"Okay," she said nodding her head in acknowledgment of the work, "no one's ever going to believe I wrote this" she deadpanned staring at me expectedly as I narrowed my eyes 

"Hey, here's a crazy idea," I said faking enthusiasm, "you do it" I responded bluntly as I stared at her in annoyance 

She let out an exasperated and long whine of a 'no' as she stared at me desperately causing me to roll my eyes at her dramatic antics

"I'm not good at this stuff like you", she whined looking at me with puppy dog eyes, "Pleaseeeeee," she asked desperately looking at me in plead while sticking out her bottom lip in a childish pout 

I huffed before mumbling a 'fine' and grabbing the paper from her to rewrite it in Taylor language while Taylor grinned at me

"thank you thank you thank you" she squeaked excitedly before hugging me 

Once she released and I was a few sentences in, I felt Taylor lurking from behind my back as she watched me continuing to finish her assignment

"Can you write faster? I'm going to have to rewrite it so it matches my handwriting and that's going to be exhausting" she huffed out from behind me making me slowly turn to her and give her a nasty glare in response 

Her eyes widened as she let out a nervous giggle

"just kidding," she said nervously laughing again, "Love you"

Once I finished Taylor's paper, I realized while she had one more class, I was done for the day letting me release a breath of relief 

finally

I headed towards my car and was on my way to the cafe when Blake suddenly called me

"Hey stranger," I said after I put my phone on speaker and continued driving

"Mi amor", his husky voice acknowledged causing a smile to etch on my lips, "What are your plans tonight?" 

"Headed to the cafe, why?" I asked as I made a slight turn right

"Have dinner with me" He demanded causing me to roll my eyes

"You know a normal person would ask not demand" I teased
