In the views of many Americans disenchanted with the president's three-and-a-half years in office and obviously, the Republican Party's convention crowd, the president still maintains the ultra-conservative profile and apparent obsession for converting Democratic America into a totalitarian republic no matter who is hurt in the process. -The who-have been hurt over the past-thrcc-and-oneVialf havft nnt been iust 90 1 ^ V%44 ^ ,i%% ' " **W * J percent-plus Afro-Americans, Hispanics, women and other minorities. Instead, some 90 percent-plus of all Americans who are not in the wealthy category have been hurt in a number of ways. Some of the most dramatic ways that the average American has been hurt include the undeniable national leadership's policies leading closer to a U.S.-U.S.S.R. nuclear war; the creation of an unprecedented, dangerous $200 billion national deficit; creation of a false illusion of a stable economy and lowered unemployment; and the establishment of a rich-man dominated society. There is much evidence to back these analyses. One may answer the following questions and provide selfevident answers. Who, can one suspect, will eventually pay off the huge national debt created by this administration? The bulk of U.S. minorities can't do it; too many are unemployed. -ssfct-T-o- ,,'v ~"T\ Wv .-v-w~M m weds Charl Salem as the honor attendants.
