...believes the income tax should be abolished. He opposed George Bush on the gulf war, saying the conflict was not in the nation's interest. He was once described as Ronald Reagan's right arm. Now Patrick Buchanan, 53, may be running for President, challenging Bush for the Republican nomination. "It's a go," said his sister, Angela ("Bay") Buchanan, former U.S. Treasurer. "He's so excited...
Staff Sergeant Robert Snow of Southington, Conn., gave quite a bit in Operation Desert Storm. A land-mine explosion left him with a shattered left arm, a broken leg and a collapsed lung. Last week Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the U.S., gave quite a bit in return: $100,000, as a wedding gift to Snow and his bride Karin Pajor...
...Maxwell's sons, Kevin, 32, and Ian, 35, were quickly named their father's successors.

"I'm proud of you, Ron," said Nixon. "At least...
...delicate U.S. task is to keep the talks moving without getting trapped into so direct a role that it would seem to be arm-twisting one side or the other. Bush and Baker tiptoed through that minefield adroitly enough last week. The President reassured a wary Israeli delegation by speaking of "territorial compromise" instead of "land for peace," a formula that Israelis loathe. He also backed the Israeli view that the conference should lead not just to nonbelligerency but to "real peace." Explained Bush: "I mean treaties. Security. Diplomatic relations. Economic relations. Trade. Investment. Cultural exchange. Even tourism...
