MAC - Dr Bredesen has observations on which candidates are most likely and less likely to respond.

Welcome Bernie! I joined in August and am impressed beyond words at the tenacity and determination of this group. There is a lot of information to sort through, and I learn something new and valuable every time I poke around. Looking forward to your participation.
