POL 312, Public Opinion, is an upper-level political science course whose overarching objective is to help you become a more sophisticated consumer of academic research and media reporting on the American public's political attitudes and beliefs.
For the first time this summer, POL 312 is being offered as a fully online course. This blog will serve in lieu of class lectures. Throughout the four-week session, I'll be using this space to contextualize and expound upon the required texts, explain key terms and concepts, point out "breaking news" developments that relate to our subject matter, and raise questions for you to think about. You should feel free to use the "comments" feature to ask questions, request clarifications, take a stab at responding to discussion questions, and/or respond to your classmates' comments.
The course syllabus is available here. You can contact me via email at sgelbman@ilstu.edu.

The article's major issue, though, is that it's not just word choice that affairs -- it turns out people's responses are influenced by more subtle grammatical organizations as well.
