The meaning of political philosophy to me is knowing the knowledge and fundamentals of our government and other concerns with the country.  It is important to know the basics of how our country came to be and our government systems.  Looking back at our political history many philosophers strived to bring their ideas which helps us to build our understanding and political ideas.  I found it easy later to understand earlier philosophers like Socrates and Plato where they spoke out against their own form of government and established a new form of thinking.  I enjoyed this class because it helped me think outside of the box.  I expanded my knowledge about some people I already knew about, but continued to increase my knowledge about understanding their political side.
