George F. Will: If the Civil War seems distant, visit Gettysburg

New museum and visitor center brings us back in touch with relevant history.

You ask the questions

Tonight, the final presidential debate between John McCain and Barack Obama will take place. We asked StarTribune.com readers what questions they would like to see the candidates asked. Here are some of their responses:

It looks bad, but have faith in the markets

Even the bleakest moments are followed by recovery. Play your cards right, and you'll profit in the long run.

The far right, out of the shadows

This year we're witnessing a culture war like we've rarely seen. Candidate McCain must make a stand.

McCain's no fool, just a victim of circumstance

He's been brought low by a sour economy and by an opponent who looks presidential on TV.

About Opinion Exchange

Opinion Exchange is produced by the Editorial Department, which is dedicated to hosting the discussion on a range of issues of interest to Star Tribune readers online and in print. In its new format, it's our hope that Opinion Exhange will create a more dynamic dialogue between Star Tribune readers and the Editorial Board. Many individual posts will be written and signed by members of the Editorial Board and will reflect their own opinions. Daily editorials will continue to represent the institutional voice of the newspaper and be researched and written by the Editorial Department, which is independent of the newsroom.
