SEATI·IW.F PIa) t , . lded~~ (212) 239-6200 Ronald Reagan and Walter Mondale represent two different phllosphies, sodivergent, in fact, that the issues Of the campaign tend to be obscured. Reagan's perspective is totally devoid Of historical ac curacy, while Mondale's for the most part is rooted in history, and-contends that we should learn from our mistakes. . While Reagan speaks about the good old days, Mondale realizes that those days weren't so good afterall. Tnls is frighteningly apparent in the field offoreign policy. For oyer a hundred years, American foreign policy has supported dictatorial oligarchies in many areas of the world such as Central and South America; In the 1860'sWilliam Walker, an American, became President of Nicaragua. Reagan's polices will bring more of the same. Walter Mondale understands that supporting governments like EI Salvador, which preside over the kitting of over 42,OOOcivitians, is not taudabte.· Nicaragua, .Reagan's favorite punching bag, -has been responsible for the murder Of approximately 200 people. Reagan has complained that the Sandinistas have harassed the Pope and the church, which is true, but they didn't murder the Archbishop, which did occur In EI salvador. With Mondale directing central American policy, the true friends.of democracy will be given a fair shake. Mondale knows thatthe area's problems have been caused by centuries of poverty and dictatorial, tyrannical rulers. Thus, he will support economic reform and a fairer redistribu tion of wealth. He will only intervene military if another country tries to subvert one of their neighbors, or If the security of the United States is in danger. His first reaction wilf not be a kneejerk policy of min- Jng ~rbOrs. o~..s..y.b.'{~r:!ing governments...... _._ ~ _... _._ . e oerat When it comes to domestic policy, Reagan has been amazingly cold and callous. To him it is perfectly acceptable to induce double digit unemployment in order to bring inflation down. He rationalized that you could put the screws to a minority of the people because the majority wouldn't mind. Walter Mon date, however, understands that this policy is extremely divisive. In addition, $200 billion deficits foreshadow economic stagnation. Mondale comprehends that the shortsightedness of Reagan will not benefit us in the future. A Mondate policy will bring a tairer. more just economic policy to America. He realizes that in order to bring dow'n the deficit he must raise taxes. Reagan will have to do the same thing but it would be less equitabte than Mondale's solution. MondaJe, however, will not simply raise taxes and distribute the money to social services payments. He understands that the Democratic party of the past often was content to let those on welfare receive their payments in exchange for votes. Mondale reaHzes that his • challenge is to create jobs for every person who wants one. That is something that Reagan has vaguely concerned himself with. epa Ican Four more years of Reagan may take us back to the days of nativism, sexism and racism. The most frightening fact is that most people are not aware of this. This fear is supported by the history Of Ronald Reagan, who said, •'When I was young I didn't k·now This last point exemplifies what Reagan will stress in the campaign, namely, the mood of we had a black prOblem." Reagan tacitly supports the racist government of South Africa which op presses over 22 million of Its citizens under apartheid rule. He has supported tax exemptions for the people. According to a U.S. News and World Report poll, 46.3 percent of those polled segregated colleges which claim that the Bible forbids people of different races from fraternizing. say that they are better off now than four years ago, while only 8.1 percent say that they are Walter Mondale understands that these attitudes are devoid of compassion. He has fought against worse off. To the Question, "What is your personal financial condition _compared with four prejudice by strongly supporting civil rights legislation as did his mentor, Hubert Humphrey. Walter .. years ago?" 41.7 percent said it was better, while just 20.5 percent said that they were Mondale asP,resldent wouldn't oppose the extension of the Voting Rights Ad. of 1964 like Reagan did. worse off. Interestingly, 34.2 percent give the president credit for their economic security. In What did Ronald Reagan doduring his life to change these glartng atrocities? The answer is nothing. However, what he did do was purchase several pieces of property in Los Angeles, which restrtcted foreign affairs, where the president does less well, nevertheless, 38.8 percent still feel that anyone of non-caucasian blood from purchasing the property. When qu8$tioned, ~ite House the United States is more secure in the world, as opposed to 27.3 percent in the negative. spokesman Larry Speakes said that the President knew nothing about the clauses. This leads one to This poll also brings to fight Reagan's strongest supporters. Although Reagan doesn't fare believe that the President was negligent in purchasing the property by not reading the contract, or that well with farmers (though it is conceded that the president will make strong inroads) and he knew about the clauses and didn't realty care. poor and minority households (blacks usually vote in the 85 to 90 percent category for All of these issues are related to Reagan's relationship with extremist Christian religious leaders and politicians. Reagan leads their call for a Constitutional amendment supporting prayer in school, not Democrats anyway) his strongest support is among the cotrege-aged population and those realizing that prayer in school is presently legal.
