MichaelH lets Leni have the floor LeniD: I'm curious... What do your students think of the election of 2004? DanielO: They would agree with the newspapers. It seems like it's life or death for many of them. LeniD: Pretty passionate? DanielO: Yeah. Definitely. And one sided. MichaelH: Daniel, does the "Kerry Factor" in Massachusetts make your students more interested? DanielO: Leni, it's a different group of students (I taught in LA for 5 years previous) but similar socio-economic sphere. It's definitely more passionate this year. DanielO: Massachusetts may play a role, but I think it is more about social and economic issues. LeniD: I agree, Daniel. We just published a number of "Dreams" on the Wall of Dreams in the America Dreams project. Students from Duarte, CA. were pretty passionate, too, about both candidates because of world and national issues.

Trippi used the Internet to raise over $40 million in small donations, and to marshal a committed, decentralized corps of volunteer campaign workers. Dean may no longer be in the lead, but the political process will never be the same. Trippi will tell the story of how he used the Internet to change the rules of the game. MoveOn: Bringing Ordinary People Back into Politics In five short years, MoveOn.Org has become one of the largest and most effective advocacy organizations in the world, with more than two million members and a unique bottom-up style that allows the members to set the organization's priorities. MoveOn is working to bring ordinary people back into politics. With a system that today revolves around big money and big media, most citizens are left out. When it becomes clear that our "representatives" don't represent the public, the foundations of democracy are in peril. MoveOn is a catalyst for a new kind of grassroots involvement, supporting busy but concerned citizens in finding their political voice. Co-founder Wes Boyd will explain the principles and internet-based tools that make MoveOn so effective.

Click here to return to antwon.com. election 2000: alaska 3 electoral votes Alaska is a relatively difficult state to understand. It's huge, but largely unpopulated; it's got a bunch of oil underneath it, which the oil industry values, but a bunch of unspoiled wildlife on top of it, which environmentalists value. Between divisions like these, the state is hard to get a read on. Mercifully, Alaska has one export that seemed to be generally accepted by everybody: Jewel Kilcher. For a while there, you couldn't get away from Jewelmania: she was on the radio, zillions of copies of her albums were sailing out of stores, and she even sang at the Super Bowl , for chrissakes. So the candidates' strategies here are simple: capture the "Jewel vote" and you've captured Alaska. Let's pair up Bush and Gore's personalities against various Jewel songs: Who Will Save Your Soul. Well, born Bush and Gore claim to be born-again Christians, so I guess this one will be a draw. You could make some sort of claim for the Gore ticket because of Lieberman's Jewish faith, but it's all the same Judeo-Christian belief system when you come down to it. Call it a draw.

Campaign On the Net September 29 , 2000 Why California Voters Have It Best By Michael Cornfield Democracy needs voters who are competent enough to decide what's best for them. When enough people are informed and engaged, the political system works. Both conditions must apply: the best-informed person in the world doesn't help democracy if he is not sharing what he knows with others. And the biggest talker in the world doesn't help if he knows little about his subject. Californians this year can take advantage of two terrific Web sites. One, www.calvoter.org , will help them get informed about their electoral choices. The other, www.ballotmaker.com , will help them find other people to discuss those choices. These sites set the (pardon the pun) gold standard for online voter education. (Ballotmaker is set up for Colorado and Oregon as well as the Golden State.) They are non-partisan, up-to-date, and -in contrast to the otherwise outstanding Minnesota E-Democracy, www.e-democracy.org

CASE TEACHING NOTES for Ann M. Bisantz Department of Industrial Engineering University at Buffalo CASE TEACHING NOTES for by Ann M. Bisantz Department of Industrial Engineering University at Buffalo INTRODUCTION The case is written for a junior or senior level undergraduate course in Human Factors or Ergonomics. It would also be appropriate for a similar level course in Human Computer Interaction or User Centered Design. It is important to note that there are many more issues regarding the design of voting systems that are not addressed in this case study, including issues of voter registration, vote security (particularly with computerized systems), vote confidentiality, use of absentee ballots, training of poll workers, etc. Instructors wishing a more complete background on issues surrounding voting are referred to the citations in the case, particularly the reports generated by the Caltech/MIT Voting Technology Project, the IEEE Standard, and information provided by the FEC. As written, the case can be completed in two 80-minute or two 50-minute (with some out-of-class work) class periods. Inclusion of these additional topics would be appropriate to expand the case to a longer in- or out-of-class design project or laboratory exercise. Material cited in the case, as well as the web sites provided in the following bibliography, would be useful in creating expanded exercises based on this case. Objectives To have students apply knowledge in user centered design to a real life design problem.

For instance, standards being developed by organizations such as the Federal Election Commission and IEEE include recommendations regarding the design of the user interface to the voting system, including requirements for user testing, access for disabled voters, and the provision of feedback to voters regarding errors ( Federal Election Commission, 2002 IEEE Standards Coordinating Committee 38, 2002 ). Similar considerations (access for the disabled, recognition and correction of voting errors) are included in a recently signed federal law ( ).

BR> The 6 Week Unit The Concept Though many students cannot participate or are not planning to participate in this year's election, they will most likely be eligible to vote in the next presidential election. But what will they need to do? How do they register? How will they know for whom to vote? In order to be prepared for this awesome responsibility, they will need to go through "voter training." Students should imagine they are about to turn 18, or have just turned 18. What would they need to do to prepare to vote? The students will most likely come up with the following progression: Am I eligible to vote? This question would lead into the lesson called The Voter. The lesson plan for The Voter challenges students to investigate who is eligible to vote in an election today, and how those criteria have changed over time. Once students have this basic understanding of who can and cannot vote, they are ready to examine the issues and determine where they stand. Where do I stand on the major issues facing this country? This question would lead into the lesson called

It is also an epidemic hampered by complacency among at risk populations and national leaders who haven't responded to the changing needs of people affected by HIV/AIDS. Indeed, as a whole, the most striking thing the presidential candidates have said or done about HIV and AIDS is how little many of them have said or done. Only two candidates, Senator Orrin Hatch and Vice President Al Gore, have been proactive on AIDS issues while others, including Senator John McCain and former Senator Bill Bradley, have records of supporting legislation that would sustain a strong investment in the fight against the epidemic.

Dean Kathleen Sullivan Sullivan served as co-counsel with Harvard Law Professor Laurence Tribe, on the first election-related case that went to the U.S. Supreme Court [ Bush v. Palm Beach Canvassing Commission Bush v. Palm Beach and the second round, Bush v. Gore Bush v. Gore as garden variety equal protection case. You have to teach it as something more momentous, more about the relationship between the court and the political process, something closer to teaching about Brown v. Board [of Education] Sullivan said that, as a casebook author, she would place Bush v. Gore In addition to developing a deep appreciation for how the courts work, Sullivan pointed out a second positive outcome of the case: the development of the private, bipartisan National Commission on Federal Election Reform. She was recently appointed, along with former Senator Slade Gorton of Washington, as one of the vice chairs of the commission. ( See NewsBriefs Sullivan said she got involved in the election reform movement by way of writing an op-ed in the New York Times The coincidence of the furor over the election, the op-ed piece, and the board meeting provided the impetus needed for the foundation to became one of the major sponsors of this private election reform commission, Sullivan said.

T THE TURN OF THE CENTURY, satirist Finley Peter Dunn created a fictional character by the name of Mr. Dooley. Records show that Dooley was a Chicago bartender who had an exceptionally keen understanding of how the political process worked. One summer evening, after a considerable time of bending the elbow with his friend, Mr. Hennessey, Dooley reached over the bar, drew his best mate close, and whispered what he knew to be an ultimate truth: Sorry to say, Mr. Dooley, but Bush v. Gore turned that one inside out, for this time the election returns followed the Supreme Court, whose pivotal December 12 decision Bush v. Gore helped seal the victory of President George W. Bush in Florida and thus the nation. When Elections Go Bad: The Law of Democracy and the Presidential Election of 2000 (Foundation Press, 2001), from which Mr. Dooley was borrowed, quite liberally.
