So I've been preparing so Interview questions on my project about the American Dream. I'm posting my questions here and it'd be really great if you guys could give me some feedback, or offer new questions, or possibly answer some if you feel like it.
Please help! thank you!!!
They aren't in any particular order:
1. What are you thoughts on the American Dream?
2. When did you first hear about it?
3. What is your American Dream?
4. Do You believe that is still exists today?
5. Why did you come to America?(for immigrants)
6. Do you believe that is still exists today?
7. Can anything negative arise from ideal such as the American Dream?
8. Can the stigma of such an ideal lead to some becoming oblivious to their failures and pursuing an unachievable goal?
9. Do you think the dream has evolved over time? has it fundamentally stayed the same over all these years?
10. Has your dream changed over time?
11. Have you achieved your 'American Dream'?
12. Many have tried, few succeed. Some that say that the 'Dream' is all that it is, that you have to be asleep to believe it. Do you agree with this? why or why not?
13. What's the latest exapmle of the American Dream that you can think of?
14. WHat makes the American Dream so unique? how come it's not as popular as the 'British Dream' or 'German dream'?
15. The American dream was taught over time and led by example over generations. Was there someone you looked up yo, or inspired you to follow your dream?

Hey Joe - I think these Q's are interesting, but there are so many of them! From my interviewing experience I would suggest narrowing it down to 3 main "leading" questions (like: When did you first hear about (the concept of the American Dream)? What is your American Dream? Do You believe that is still exists today?) with follow-up questions ready for people who aren't very talkative (like: Has your dream changed over time? Have you achieved your 'American Dream'? Can anything negative arise from ideal such as the American Dream?)
I think with such an emotional topic you'll probably get pretty evolved answers from people from just the first 3. Just my $.02.
