I have a little bit of time to blog before they kick me out of my room (damn on-campus housing). Then, I’m off to Spring Break!
I want to talk a little bit about the direction I’m going to take with this blog. I like what I’m doing so far, as far as updating more regularly goes. I’m getting back into the habit. I like the guest post, and I want to get my friends more involved.
What I definitely do not want to do is engage in analysizing the psychology of any candidate. I can’t get into their minds and so, I should not speculate on that. It should be a general rule that I will not engage armchair psychology. Even if I read multiple biographies, this blog will contain no attempts to get into the minds of candidates. For example, Sullivan attempts to paint Clinton as somewhat sociopathic. I will not profess to know the general psychological motives of others.
What I can do is question judgment on certain issues. However, the lack of judgment defaults to only applying to that issue. If I want to say that the lack of judgment means a lack of judgment in other issues, even if those issues are related, I will have to give a justification for that leap.
I want to start making posts that contains links to my daily online reading. I mean, just the links and no commentary.
I also really, really want to embed YouTube videos of TV commercials and comment on them. That should be fun.
Finally, I want to migrate political and pop culture commentary onto a new blog, while cross-posting everything onto this blog and keeping personal stuff on this blog.
Just notes. Next post will be from CA. See you!
