PROGRAM:

 

Matt Dickinson is todays’ speaker. Matt is a professor of political science at Middlebury College. Subject matter centered around the democratic process of selecting candidates for the Presidency of the United States. Feels the Republican candidate will be Mr. Trump. Too early to determine Democratic candidate as many factors will determine. Person with broadest support across the party, endorsements, and money will help determine the finalists. The media also has a big impact by the coverage they give to garner the biggest audience. They tend to focus on personalities more then issues The next debates will be determined by money raised and polling numbers.
