Mondale, on the other hand, has almost no credibility with Hart's independent constituency, many of whom spurned the Carter Mondale ticket in 1980 to vote for Reagan or Anderson. These are the voters whom the Democratic nominee must attract, and Mondale has run just the kind of campaign that will drive them over to Reagan in the fall. If he gets the nomination, it will be extremely difficult for him to alter his image sufficiently to prevent a surge of independents to the Republican ticket. Not only would the Democrats' hopes for the Presidency be dashed, but vulnerable right...
Reporter-Researcher Brigid O'Hara-Forster checked the manuscript's independently verifiable data. Executive Editor Ronald Kriss, who has had a major role in preparing nearly all the recent book excerpts that have appeared in TIME, including those from the memoirs of Henry Kissinger and Jimmy Carter, supervised the Haig project. Says Kriss: "It is practically unprecedented for a former major member of an Administration to publish a controversial book about his experiences while that Administration is still in power. That adds an additional level of newsworthiness to the contents of the book...
...worry about Federal Judge Harold Greene. Only last month, Greene ruled that the Justice Department "ignored" the Ethics Act when it failed to seek appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate charges that Reagan campaign aides in 1980 had illegally acquired debate briefing papers and other documents from Jimmy Carter's campaign staff.

Since his confirmation hearings raised new questions about whether Meese had received some of the Carter papers, Smith would...
Major d'Aubuisson is young, handsome, aggressive, with the aura of a playboy, indefatigable, and his speeches are interspersed with jokes and vulgarities. He does not know uncertainty. His ideas are utterly simplistic: it was President Carter who surrendered Nicaragua to the Sandinistas. Carter also prepared to turn over El Salvador to Communism, but "we stopped the conspiracy in its tracks." At the time, the major was an intelligence officer, and he claims he quit so he could "denounce the Communist plot." According to his adversaries, when he left the army he took with him the intelligence archives. Many...
...Shawn and Harold Ross, the magazine's founding editor, assigned him to write about politics as if he were a critic-reviewing a book or play. Thereafter, diffident and a bit owlish, the critic plied the provinces with nearly every would-be President from Thomas Dewey to Jimmy Carter. Rovere also found time to write eight nonfiction books and countless shorter works, most notably a straight-faced 1961 article for American Scholar on the existence of an "American Establishment," a spoof so successful that scholars began debating the subject seriously...
