Split the class into two teams. Each team must choose one person to be their 'presidential candidate'. The other members of the team will act as reporters. Reporters will write statements based on a 'pretend' interview with the opposing candidate. They should write sensationalised statements claiming the candidate said they would do unfavourable things if elected.
Ex: Candidate Peterson said he would use the taxpayers money for his personal vacations. Candidate Peterson said that he would impose a 10 p.m. curfew for all teenagers under 18 years old. Candidate Peterson said he hates dogs.
