Cleveland, Ohio Lines: 20 What scares me more is that during the "Barbara Walters" press conference (debate?) with the [D]emocratic candidates, they were asked a hypothetical question about what they would do in the event of an eastern European attack against western Europe. In each case the candidate outlined a strategy of telephoning, etc... However, it has been the policy of this country for twenty years now that any attack on a NATO country by a WARSAW PACT nation would be viewed as an attack against the US by the Soviet Union. Now if the candidates want to change this policy when elected, that's one thing. >From their answers it seems that they are ignorant of it. I'm not sure of electing gentlemen with such low cognizance of foreign affairs. Then you should be equally unsure of reelecting a gentleman who appoints people with little or no practical experience to high posts because they were good to him in California.
