US HISTORY
Imagine you work for President Kennedy. The president has explained that the Soviets seem to be far ahead in space technology. Their success in putting the first satellite-and then the first man-into orbit seems to be showing the world that communism is a better system than free enterprise and democracy. The president asks for ideas on how the United States can beat the Soviet Union in the space race. Prepare a briefing paper for the president recommending that the United States begin work to put the first man on the moon. In the paper, apply a problem-solving process that walks the president through your thinking and explains why you are recommending this plan. After you have written your first draft, make sure that you revise your briefing to clarify your arguments for the president.
