With Her or with the Hair? Making Sense of the US Presidential Election

Panel Event
Thursday, November 3
2-4 pm
Sankey Chamber

For more than a year, Americans (and frankly, most of the world) have been riveted by the 2016 presidential race. While most of us are finding it hard to look away, we are also trying to make sense of what we’re seeing. What are the conditions that gave rise to Donald Trump? How did Hillary Clinton manage to become the Democratic nominee? What are the big issues in this campaign that are being ignored? What might be the lasting consequences of this election? And, of course, what is the impact for Canada?

Join us as we explore these questions with an public lecture, featuring:

  • Stefan Dolgert (Department of Political Science, Brock University)
  • Paul Hamilton (Department of Political Science, Brock University)
  • Tami Friedman (Department of History, Brock University)

Each will make a brief presentation about the state and history of the current race and help to put the election in context as well as answering questions from the audience.
