Carter took a strong offensive thrust, saying his Republican rival had taken '"dangerous" stands that could lead to a nuclear arms race and proliferation of nuclear weapons to terrorist countries. But Reagan denied he could overreact militarily as president, saying. "I don't ever want to see another generation of Americans bleed their lives away" on foreign soil. On social and economic programs Carter said Reagan's position was a "radical departure" from the historical principles of the Republican Party that showed insensitivity to human need. Repeatedly Reagan charged Carter with misstating and distorting his statements and said his record as governor of California was one of social progress. ' 'There you go again,'' Reagan would say with a smile as he This image of Saturn, taken by the Voyager 1 spacecraft at a distance of 21.1 million miles tried to lighten the mood of the debate with a rebuke of what was made on the last day the planet and its rings could be captured within a he termed Carter's "misunderstandings."
