Career advancement is another pro of getting a college degree. In getting a college degree you have more networking opportunties available. The cons of  getting a college degree is not being able to find a job. Another con of getting a college degree is  the finanical cost as well as the  time lost out of life. The ideal of not finding a job or being black listed as being overquailified for certain positions .

StoryTelling

Story Telling is only great when the audience/reader undivided attention  is sustained at  the beginning of the  story . Every movie or book I chose to read or watch is because of the strong beginning .  I chose  the  upcoming movie  Get Out  which scheduled to debut February 2017 .
This movie is directed by  Jordan Peele.  The first time I saw this trailer I was immediately intrigue  and wanted to see more of the  movie much like reading a book with a strong beginning.  My curiosity was  immediately spiked ."Now that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy and Dean. At first, Chris reads the family's overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter's interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined."
 . The Get Out trailer  displayed a lot of conflict and horror which adhere to one of the rules for a strong  hook . The main character is very terrified after visiting his new girlfriend family estate. The conflict in the  Get Out   trailer demanded the audience attention . (Weiland pg.339) They open with a conflict  to keep the  audience wanting to see the movie once it debut.  The Get Out  trailer set the   tone of the  movie by showing  the  location of the   South  which gave the audience the   an accurate  presuppositions about the type of tale they're  going to be reading or in this care movie they're are gong to be seeing . (Weiland pg. 339). The main Character  opening charming and sweet personality
 gives the  audience  a reason to want to watch the  movie more  which fits the Character hook.(pg 340).

EQUALLY A LEADERSHIP PROBLEM AND A FOLLOWERSHIP PROBLEM

    In Brook’s article “The Follower Problem” he suggested that Americans have more of a follower problem and most likely not a leadership problem. Brook’s article indicated one of the  main reasons why Americans don’t respect authority is due to lacking the knowledge about power and how it should be used to bind and built.  Brook’s article suggested people are more cynical in this day in time and not obedient to authority. The article stated “To have good leaders you have to have good followers- able to recognize just authority, admire it, be grateful for it and emulate it.”  I think Americans have an equal leadership problem and followership problem with plenty room for improvement to make America a better place.
         Image result for leadership and followership quotes   I agreed with Brook’s ideal of Americans followership problem for many reasons. President Barack Obama was elected to be the President of the United States twice by the American people. Millions voted and   agreed he   was qualified enough to hold the highest office in the land. He went through the appropriate channels to achieve this position.  Majority of the   voters chose him to lead the country twice in the last eight years.  Many Americans and others elected officials don’t support him and his decisions.  Many Americans have an issue with his authority for many reason such as race, gender, or party affiliation   .  He have demonstrated multiple achievement while in office yet, many Americans still don’t respect him or uplift his great achievements a leader. Many Americans have the cynical attitude as mention in Brook’s Article “The Follower Problem” towards President Obama. Many American with the    followership problem seek an avenue to condemn President Obama leadership and policies.  I believe if an individual is voted to be in a leadership position then that person should be respected and honored. Also, the followership problem would be eliminated and there will be more great leaders with greater progress. Eisenhower quote “ Always try to associate yourself with and learn as much as you can from those who know more than you do, who do better than you, who see more clearly than you.” Goes hand in hand with the followership problem ideal.
Americans followership problems is just equal as the Americans followership in my opinion.  All leaders are not honest and fair leaders. There are many leaders in America not fulfilling their duties as leader.  Many leaders are in positions and making horrible decisions such as the multiple killings of African American males by white police officers.Image result for 2016 presidential memes Many of the   policers are being found not guilty and justice is not being served. They supposed to be leaders and suppose to protect and   serve at all times.  The current Presidential Election with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is an awesome example of the Americans leadership problem.  Donald Trumps is running to be president, but he is not qualified to be a leader. Some Americans are choosing to support Donald Trump campaign even though he have displayed many episodes of rudeness and disrespectfulness toward his own party followers  and others on so many levels. Some Americans have issues with choosing the adequate and efficient leaders. 
 In conclusion,  I agreed with Brook’s article “The Follower Problem” , but I also believe the   leadership problem is just as equal and relevant as the   followership problem .
