____ are there all the time, so their speed is the most important fact that distinguishes them.

____ the United States, the practice of permitting aliens to vote could be seen as compatible with the idea of an exclusionary citizenship, but that is a hard balance to maintain.

If the vote, of all rights, is in the hands of noncitizens, why ____ they not count as citizens, and the entire distinction between resident alien and citizen be abandoned?

Bruner's reflections on the limits of the machine ____ lead him back to a humanistic emphasis on narrative and story-telling as essential ingredients in understanding human cognition, a fascinating intellectual journey that reveals both the power and the limits of computers as guides to the way we think.
