Dr. Natalie Davis talks about 2008 election

By Madison Underwood

Public opinion expert Dr. Natalie Davis spoke at the Birmingham Public Library today about the Presidential election. The political science professor covered a range of topics at the “Brown Bag Lunch,” from polling techniques, to undecided voters, to John McCain’s choice of Vice President.\
\
Dr. Davis has been a professor at Birmingham-Southern for 36 years, and appeared as a commentator and expert on many major TV networks, and is regularly quoted in the New York Times and Washington Post.\

Author/videographer’s note: I apologize for the less-than-perfect video and audio quality. I’m learning (slowly) but I can’t seem to believe Kyle when he says “Don’t use the digital zoom,” but next time I will be sure to avoid it. \

The video is split into five parts.
