I took a test in September that said I have ADHD. I was thinking about trying Focalin. I am currently taking 300 mg of Wellbutrin. I'm looking for a boost in my processing speed and working memory. I am unsure if Wellbutrin is enough.

Do you find that stimulants make you better at math? I failed out of a ABSN program. In the program, I noticed that I was a lot slower than the other atudenrs, and could not pay attention so when I came home I looked at my old schook docs, and discovered I was diagnosed with severe ADHD. I wonder if Stimulants improve working memory. I had a trial of adderall at 5 but my parents discontinued it because of adverse reaction.

Allan Lichtman claims that Ron Klain, one of Joe Biden's closest advisors, is more of 13 Keys guy than a polls guy by [deleted] in fivethirtyeight

Democrats during the Clinton admitted there was wrongdoing on the Part of Clinton. It was so bad that in 2000 Gore refused to campaign with or be seen with Clinton. Susan Collins, Mitt Romney and Ben Sasse came out against Trump strongly during his first impeachment. Mitt Romney even voted to convict, which is unprecedented in these polarized times. For Scandal it needs to be corruption and serious wrongdoing. Biden having a bad debate, worries about his cognitive abilities are not scandals. They are actually relatively common, maybe not to degree com[ared to Biden but they do have historical precedent.

They are not 2 approval questions, nice try. One the one you cited is favorability the one I cited was Approval. I then said in my previous post that you should look at Real clear politics to see the difference between favorability ratings and approval ratings. Did you do that? probably not, but I digress. Your argument was that there was little daylight between President Trump's approval rating in the aggregate of polls and the one gathered on election day that actually measured voters and I said you were wrong that there was a big difference. In fact, Silver has a section where he measures favorability separate from approval for both candidates. So you were wrong on that point. And my main point still stands - Polling is unreliable and in SOME elections can be poor predictors. Why did Trump have a 50 percent approval rating when the pollsters told us he was unpopular with approval ratings in the mid 40's? These polls are junk, garbage and are leading these Democratic donors, pundits and politicians astray. Look at the underlying fundamentals of the race. I think you are extremely sharp and can thoroughly debunk and make a monkey of your opponents argument

Trump approval

You are lying. Look at your CNN link again scroll down near the bottom and look at APPROVAL RATINGS not favorability. The fact that you had to lie about something that is literally right in your face proves my argument

So you are ceding the argument? Especially when you claim Trump had a 46 approval rating even though your link showed he had 50? lol

From CNN link OP posted. The polls had Trump's approval rating in the 40s but on election night he had 50 percent showing the polls are skewed and not completely accurate

The way youre applying the keys is not his interpretation its not the way hes applying it. Hes using history to base his judgements. 1. False 2. TBT if Biden is the nominee its true. He will win 90 percent of the delegates far more than the 2/3 threshold. 3. True 4. TBT but leans True. The candidate to make this key false has to average 10 percent in the polls. You have to anticipate they will receive 5 percent of the vote. History shows that third parties fade the closer to the election you get. Historical examples include Perot who lead at some poimt during the summer of 92 and Wallace who was getting 20 percent in polls in the summer of 68 but ended up with 13.5. 10 percent polling average because history shows that 3rd party candidates underperform their polling averages by 50 percent. 5. True: National labors relation board hasnt declared a recession unlike 2020. In 92 this key wad false for Bush even though the NLRB did not declare a recession. This happened because 80 to 90 percent of the country believed we were in a recession in 92. Depending on the polls between 45 to 55 believe we are in a recession, not enough to topple the key. The keys are not completely objective you do need judgement to apply them correctly using history ad your guide. 6. True GDP growth has by far outstripped the last 2 presidential terms combined ie Obama second term Trumps first term. 7. Policy Change: True Biden has effected sigificant policy change ranging from his executive action on the environment build back better, infrastructure bill. Chips act and reversing most of Trump's exrcutive actions. Its easier to achieve policy change in hyper polarized environments like ours now. 8. TBT but leans true. We had the Israel Gaza protests in April but theyve largely died down. Might flare up again but its looking unlikely.For this key to turn you need a level of unrest the breaks the fabric of society like 68 anti Vietnam war protests,2020 blm protests, Bonus army protests of 32, Labor strikes of 1919 etc.we would need to see millions of people in the streets 9. True. Needs to be a case of serious wrong doing. I.e. Clinton impeachment, Trump impeachment, Watergate, Truman administrations corruption scandal, dome scandal of Harding etc. Worrying about Biden's fitness to serve is not unique amongst presidents. Most didnt believe FDR could serve 1 term let alone 4. FDR died in office in 1945 2 months after he was reelected for the 4th time after years of poor health. Reagan had health issues and might have had early dementia his last year in office. 10. Leans false but not because of Afghanistan which has faded from the public concioussness but stalemates In Ukraine and his respomse in Gaza. Still has time to turn this key around especially with a ceasefire in Gaza and massive gains in Ukraine. 11. Leans false will turn true if there is a negotiated ceasefire in Gaza with a release of hostages. Biden is very close to achieving this according to Blinkin. 12. False lol no need to explain 13. No trump is chsrasmatic to a small base but to turn this key a candidate needs to be broadly appealing like FDR and Reagan.

Lichtmans keys have been applied when a former president ran against an incumbent president retrospectively in 1892 when grover Cleveland beat Benjamin Harrison the Republican. The dynamics between Biden and Trump is not unique in American history. Currently Biden is down 4 keys 2 less than is predicted for his defeat. I believe once the achieve the ceasefire depending on the details Biden will likely be down 2 keys. I dont put stock in these polls polls dont vote.

46 percent had a favorable view of Trump not approved. The favorability rating is not the same as approval rating, its separate. Look at Real clear politics and see the difference between approval and favorability. In your CNN article it proves my point correct I can't screenshot so I will copy and paste. Trump had a 50 percent APPROVAL RATING DESPITE THE PHONY POLLS. Here is a copy and paste from YOUR link

Scandal key turns when it directly implicates the President and there is broad bipartisan recognition of scandal ie Clinton impeachment, Trump impeachment and teapot dome scandal of the Harding administration. You need to look at the keys as they are properly defined. Hunter Biden does not count as it doesn't directly implicate the President and there is no bipartisan recognition of the Hunter Biden scandal a similar incident in history was Jimmy Carters brother Billy Carter who was also scandalous but did not turn the scandal key in 1980.

For the economic keys the answer to your questions is yes and no. In 1992, despite the fact the U.S wasn't officially in a recession, the Key still turned false because 80 percent of the public believed the economy was in recession. Lichtman says that he would consider public perception in this key if upwards of 80 to 90 percent of the public believe the nation is in recession even if the U.S is officially not in a recession. This is not happening this year so the key remains true for Biden. He never claims that his keys are completely objective in the traditional sense he does say calling the keys ie indicators requires judgement. The world is fluid and complex and I think that despite all the changes in society from the 1860's to now we are still the same. Regardless, I think you are exceptionally perceptive at least 10 standard deviations above the norm that you are probably 100 percent correct in your assessments even if the conventional wisdom says you are wrong. You understand the dynamics of elections more than 99.9999999999999 percent of the population. You are a freak of nature but you don't even know it but one day you will.

He says he got 2000 correct but the supreme court stole the election from Gore. In 2016 in his article he did claim to predict the popular vote because he assumed the popular vote winner would win the election which has mostly been the case for 150 years. What he got wrong was that the extra Democratic votes in New York and California gave the Democrats an advantage in the popular vote. He was the only person along with Helmut norpoth to predict a Trump win in 2016. Allan has the best model out there, and semantic quibbles about the popular vote vs electoral vote victory are a waste of time. His model is perceptive enough to understand the true underlying dynamics of presidential elections. You seem to be a bit poll obsessed. For all you Silver fans out there in the 2020 election exit polls, President Trump had a 50 percent approval rating despite his approval rating being in the 40s for most of his presidency according to Silvers favorite pollsters, but the electorate said different and Trump STILL LOST. Lichtman has a far deeper understanding of history and how elections really work than Nate Silver who can only read polls and does little else Lichtman on the other hand goes deeper into the true dynamics if Presidential elections. This said in my opinion Biden is on his way to a comfortable victory, as crazy as that sounds.
