It's a hole in Meyer's work. Both Alice and Jasper's powers are mental, and if Bella supposedly has a shield then she should be able to block anything like emotions penetrating her mind and Alice predicting her future. Neither should affect her. Both above arguments are ridiculous because Alice's power obviously works within her own mind, not affecting the physical world, and futures change based on decisions--guess what--made within the MIND. Jasper's power is also not physical, it's entirely mental. Emotions you feel in your MIND, not your physical body. Meyer made the hole out of carelessness and convenience, probably.
