• What aspects of our group interests, identities and anxieties are being represented, mobilized or polarized in the current political arena, and how?
• What clues or hypotheses can we develop, if any, about the changing currents and undercurrents in the notions of leadership, authority, power, freedom, and civic obligat ion in America's next phase?
