Presidential Issues: Where do the Candidates Stand?
Use the Presidential debates to determine the position of each candidate. Look at an issue in depth, investigating the phrases and terminology used by both sides of the debate. Identify such language in the debates as used by candidates. Students will gain a greater understanding of the issues themselves and the rhetoric used to describe them, plus evaluate the position each candidate takes.
