Graham organizers are careful not to be overly antagonistic towards the fundamentalist wings of Christianity. Williams emphasizes freedom of speech, saying. "We've learned to sort of coexist." But he says that a fundamentalist interpretation of the Bible can be dangerous. "There are people who can look at the Bible and attempt to prove that any people who are not white.

These seemingly decisive rejections of Reagan's foreign policy, however, coexist with a widespread public attitude that the Soviet Union's military objectives are "offensive" as opposed to "defensive" (61% to 29%).

One was the fiercely independent newspaper La Prensa, which has become an increasingly vocal critic of the nine-man Sandinista directorate.

Earlier this month the Sandinista government threatened to close down La Prensa. Last week the Sandinistas moved against COSEP. After publicly accusing the government of egregious...
