Jim, no need to apologize. Your query should be the worst problem any of
us have. We all see things differently. Sometimes our discussions get so
esoteric that they are divorced from reality. Here psychology and
everyday reality merge. Our presidential election is about people, as you
point out it can also be about statistics. It is up to each of us to
raise the issue and for others to decide whether it is applicable in their
teaching method or class. As I see it, the election is fraught with human
psychology and statistical issue. I, as an historian, I see tremendous
case studies for teaching psychology, from Bush and Gore down to the Jesse
Jacksons to the individual voter to the sudden interest in politics
percolating through our population. If nothing else it is fascinating.
Make it a good day.
