Write a five paragraph essay in response to: "If you were designing a plan of government for a new democracy, would you plan for a presidential or parliamentary system?"

Alright here’s what I suggest you do when writing (really all essays) this essay. Works well for me,especially when I don’t like the topic.

-Game plan-
Intro: The introduction is easy, just get the key elements in such as a hook at the beginning (something interesting about your subject to get the reader invested) and a thesis at the end (run down of what your going to talk about in the next 3 paragraphs)

Paragraph 1: talk about the effects of a presidential system. What this means, how it works, pros and cons. Use at least 1 piece of evidence from a source and then talk about it. (Evidence is really good if you need to fluff up your essay a little)

Paragraph 2: talk about parliamentary system. Answer all of the questions in the previous paragraph. Pros and cons. Again, one piece of evidence. Don’t be afraid to fluff it up a little.

Paragraph 3: compare the two. Which in YOUR OPINION is better. Go into detail with which you would choose. Pick your best piece of evidence about the system you chose to back you up. Be VERY FLUFFY with your word choice.

Conclusion: super easy, just summarize your introduction but add more detail about your opinion. Sum it up with something witty you found in your research. Make yourself sound like the smartest person in the world.

Hope this helps!
