In addition to ACH (mentioned by tboyd47), there is argument mapping.

There are many ways to do it.
You could load documents containing facts, opinions or other information into a database and then add another "table" that links one thing to another so we can say that "opinion B is a response to opinion A" or that any sort of relationship exists between them.
I think this even more interesting when we apply it to a set of documents that have business, engineering or science value.

Yes! There is a great way to do this called ACH (Analysis of Competing Hypothesis). It's a wonderful way to clarify your thoughts about a complex issue. It is used within the CIA.

Say the president does or says something.
Is there a way to quantify everyone's opinion about this into a tangible set of statements that you can agree or disagree with?
