All sages provide both wisdom and inspiration. Since Dashaâs speech contained wisdom and greatly inspired her audience, Dasha is
aksik [14]

Answer:

c. Just because Dasha satisfied two requirements of being a sage doesnât necessarily mean that she satisfies all the requirements of being a sage.

Explanation:

This can be explained by perspective of Western Logic.

Let : Sages = S ; Wise & Inspiring = P

'All sages provide wisdom & inspiration' implies 'All S are P'

But 'All S are P' doesn't necessarily imply 'All P are S'

So : 'All saints are wise & inspiring people' doesn't necessarily imply 'All wise & inspiring people are saints'

Therefore : Dasha, being a wise & inspiring person doesn't garauntee that  she is a saint. Hence, wisdom & inspiration satisfy only two requirements of being a sage doesn't necessarily mean that she satisfies all the requirements of being a sage.

Should the Electoral College be preserved or replaced? If you think it should be replaced, what do you believe should replace it
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

believe that the Electoral College should be eliminated and replaced with a popular vote. There are more than 300 million people living in the United States, but only 538 are deciding who is president.

This wouldn’t be an issue if the Electoral College properly represented the will of the people, but in the most recent presidential election, they failed to do so. A popular vote would ensure that each vote matters and properly represents the people’s decision.

The Electoral College goes against the idea that each person has a vote and defeats the idea that every vote counts
