Got Issues? The Candidates and Science



The next President needs a pretty impressive resume--skilled in diplomacy and building consensus quick to understand policy and, with a 150 billion dollar research budget, science. With that in mind, scientists and others have been calling for a debate on scientific topics, and it's now scheduled for April. Wednesday morning at 9 a.m. we'll continue our analysis of the issues in the campaigns with a look what the presidential hopefuls are saying and proposing about science, technology and the environment.

Guests:
Mary Wooley, President, Research America
Andrew Revkin, The New York Times
Jeffrey Mervis, Deputy News Editor, Science Magazine
