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 foriegn affairs. -Ron
