The year started out with the Presidential hope- fuls getting an early jump on mud-slinging and generally boring the American people. The issues in the election started out to be the economy, the deficit in particular. However, the real issues soon became clouded as the media became more inter- ested in the morality of the candidates than their stands on the economy, defense, foreign affairs, and the plight of the home- less. The summer brought the American peo- ple the Iran-Contra scandal live from the halls of Congress. A three-ringed circus soon sprang up, missing only the animal acts. A parade of clowns from both the Ad- xs sx s f $ hero, in spite of the fact that he and his accomplices managed to prolong a war, en- danger American servicemen, and generally hurt the Conservative cause. In the Fall, the American people were treated to a mockery of the process of choosing a Supreme Court Justice. In a pro- tracted battle, Congress managed to inject politics into the Court and set a dangerous precedent, jeopardizing the impartiality of the High Court. In the end a Judge was appointed, but in this year celebrating the 200th birthday of the U.S. Constitution, one wonders what the founding fathers would say. The winter brought one of the few bright A PRE-PRIMARY REPORT hhhmmmam v A Year Of Scandal And Controversy spots of the arena of politics. The Presiden was able to shake off the clouds of Iran-gatt and negotiate an arms treaty with the Sovi ets. The year ended with a visit from tht Soviet Premier, and the signing of the Inter mediate Nuclear Forces treaty. World politics proved to be much mort encouraging, but at the same time mot dangerous. Not long into the year Corazo Aquino was able to win her country's elect tion, proving she was a strong national leat er. However, her strength was to be testet in a political coup d' etat by the Philippin Army. Happily, Mrs. Aquino was ablett beat the coup and remain in power; proo that democracy can survive in a third worl nation. Other startling, but encouraging, devet found itself with the task of keeping the set lanes open. In spite of Congressional sab- tage, the Navy did the job. Now there are rumors of a possible scaling down of the size of the force there. Without a doubt, 1987 is a year that will not soon be forgotten. Politics were a mess, but we have all seen worse and in some cases things did get better. All that l cansat for 1988 is to pick your party and VOTEIIBt the way, by the time you read this, the 138th Democratic Presidential debate should be on.
