...would expect native-born Americans to look upon foreign-born American citizens as their equals in all respects. And yet curiously, the Constitution does not do so. By denying foreign-born citizens the opportunity to run for president, the Constitution sends the implicit message that naturalized immigrants are second-class citizens. If these immigrants are unequal in but one respect, how can they be considered equals in the eye of the law in any other...
...misinformed bias, deny Israel the same right which they freely grant all other states without limitations or preconditions. Unable to compete with Israel in conventional military terms, the Arabs are aided by the Times and the AP in the ideological sruggle instead.

Since arriving on American shores in late September, the 64 has set records for sales, hype and, most important, slack jaws. The pure mix of art and technology implicit in the machine's design and the games that run on it help it transcend the category of mere amusement. It sets, our editors found, a whole new standard in electronic entertainment, smashing barriers that the bug-filled Internet and clumsy personal computers have yet to approach...
