...unsettling to read your cover??story declaring that the Democratic Party "ignored the faithful for decades" [July 23]. As a liberal Christian and an ordained minister, since when do I not fit the label of "the faithful"?

Lincoln Schuster, due credit for his skill and initiative, you speak of Mr. Schuster as "as shrewd an opportunist as there is in the publishing world." In every fine sense this seems true; but if you meant by "opportunist" a man who seizes every chance to aggrandize himself, regardless of principles, I trust you will let me contradict...
