...annual survey on hunger and homelessness in 30 cities, says demand for emergency shelter has increased every year since the survey began in 1985, including an 11% jump in 1998. The number of people counted in Boston's annual one-night homeless census rose 40% between 1988 and 1996.

Paul Wellstone of Minnesota and Bob Kerrey of Nebraska have announced that they will not seek the nomination. Only one Democrat--former senator Bill Bradley of New Jersey--has indicated he will run. Though Sen. John F. Kerry of Massachusetts and Jesse Jackson have hinted they may run, the time for viable candidates to enter the race...
