<What are all these "lion eaters" people always talk about ?> If we consider the results of the net Presidential Election Poll from about a month back (Mondale won substantially), one can see why the White House wouldn't be interested in the net. Obviously, the collection of people that read the net are in no way representative of the general population of the United States. Reagan has no good reason to listen to us - he's too busy listening to the PEOPLE. David Hecker P.S. The opinions expressed in this article are my own and in no way reflect the official opinion of St. Joseph's University. P.P.S. After reading some of the slop some of the students here have put on the net, I figure I should make it clear that the same disclaimer goes for their articles as well.

-- >> ...Reagan has no good >> reason to listen to us - he's too busy listening to the PEOPLE. >> David Hecker Oh is he now? Does that include the 80-odd percent who favor a nuclear freeze? Or the 60-odd percent who believe in a woman's right to an abortion? Have you taken a look at his proposed budget? Or do you think the PEOPLE wants to abolish Amtrak and farm price supports while they're at it? (We're talking "the people" here, not yuppie-netters who clearly couldn't care less on these issues.) What Reagan's listening to is his staff and only his staff. He's too busy all right--napping. -- *** *** JE MAINTIENDRAI ***** ***** ****** ****** 05 Dec 84 [15 Frimaire An CXCIII] ken perlow ***** ***** (312)979-7188 ** ** ** ** ..ihnp4!iwsl8!ken *** ***
