Brainstorming the Focus of the Paper

Hey gang,

Feel free to edit and add to this but I just need to focus in on some things.
It will help me more forward is I have goals to meet and questions to answer.
This is NOT how Im suggesting the paper to be outlined. Just the information we
should collect as a group. They are just some paths Im thinking we could go down
as we write this paper--focusing on portraits thats create a status, why, how, ect...
