Great research papers tend to result from new discoveries as opposed to pre-existing knowledge. This was the same concept suggested by Philip Gerard in his interview “An Interview with Philip Gerard” conducted by Frank Tascone. By learning and understanding new information, the pieces fall in place together to unlock “something really important and exciting”, according to Gerard. Approaching my research topics in a similar fashion, I chose two topics that I have an interest in but very limited amount of knowledge about: the impact of DACA on the U.S economy and the impact of Graham-Cassidy Health Care Bill on American citizens. Using these two topics, some intersections I can create with food are the economy and food as well as government regulations and food. Considering my background knowledge on these topics are very limited, I would need to read a wide array of scholarly articles that touch bases with the pros and cons of both my topics. In order to guard myself from assuming the answer before I begin my paper, I could pose possible rebuttals to my arguments that are in support of my topics. Through this manner, I prevent myself from making my research paper too biased.
