Conditional claim

A conditional claim is if it can be written as an “if...then” claim that has the same truth by value. The statement is assumable because we do not know the outcome until later. I use conditional claims to find out what would happen if prop 19 did pass then will California gain money or make people more dumb from prop 19. The condition is the subordinate and then the consequence is the main clause. We sometimes assume that conditional claim can be argued because we do not know what will happen if the premise to be true or false. If the Rangers hit the ball or Cliff Lee did good then they would have won the World Series. This could be true but it is not and the Giants won by getting all the good breaks to win it all. Or if the Rangers won, they have the best hitters in the majors right now.
