In response to this morning's report, the Dole campaign called the President's announcement "a slap in the face" for the American taxpayer, claiming Clinton is presiding over a recovery which is leaving the American worker behind.

The only significant original piece in the handbook is Thomson Professor of Government Martin L. Kilson's essay on last year's Million Man March and black politics. This essay, while an intellectual...
