Who is John Locke and Demothenes?
John Locke was a english philosopher he lived during the 17th century and influenced many people some of these people are  Voltaire and Rousseau and many Scottish thinkers and american revolutionist.

Demosthenes was a Greek statesmen and the orater of Athens he started his job as a professional speech writer and as a lawyer But after a while grew interested with politics and eventually made his first speech in the years 354bc  against the Macedon expansion. 

Give a summary of each (2-3 sent) and describe how they are related to Valentine and Peter (2-3 sent).

Demothenes was a very out spoken person and did not worry in what other people thought so when Macedon invaded Greece he spoke against them and so in the book Val also acts that she is very against the Russian movement and that angers many people just like what Demosthenes did in Greece against the Macedon. This is made easier as the Americans  which is Val main audience they already have hard feeling for the Russian's as during the cold war the american were fighting against them.

Locke was a much more quiet thinker that influences people but at a slower rate and is against what Demosthenes says and that we should protect against the buggers more than the Russians.
