Saturday Evening Lecture at the University of Dundee

Last night I attended - along with a very large audience that filled a lecture theatre at the Dalhousie Building at the University of Dundee (see below - and there were two overflow lecture theatres) - a superb public lecture by Charlie Cook on "The New US Presidency - 100 Days after inauguration."
Charlie Cook is the American political analyst who specialises in election forecasts and political trends and whop founded the acclaimed 'The Cook Political Report' newsletter (click on headline above to view his website).

He gave a highly informative and entertaining address, followed by a lively question and answer session thereafter. A thoroughly worthwhile event and another success for the university's Saturday Evening Lecture Series, now in its 85th year, and proving as popular as ever.
