Q: What do the candidates think about science?
A1: McCain will not answer any questions. Obama has. Check it out for yourself: www.sciencedebate2008.com (K.C.Cole)
A2: McCain's campaign says they will address these questions soon. The delay is not reassuring. Times reporters have not been able to get interviews with either candidate about environmental platform. What about science/health? Not likely. Obama has given answers (although very general) on science issues. Early on, Obama was discussing technology infrastructure. It will also be interesting to see how the choice of Palin influences McCain's stance on issues like climate change and environmental energy. (Chang)
A3: Looking and medical/health issues locally. What about VA Hospitals on the state level? Georgia has the largest number of female veterans. (Thomas)
A4: I think we can overrate empiricism. Truth-telling facts/evidence are all critically important to us but to make compelling stories, narrative is extremely important to the greater public. No amt. of evidence is adequate to convince a certain group of people...show them examples.
