Hyland had a more basic proposal: increasing the U.S. forces on NATO's front lines. "The Europeans on their own are never going to be a match for the Soviets. Thus we simply must fill up the gap and move five U.S. divisions to Western Europe to join the four we now have there. While it will cost a lot of money to build barracks, to set up the logistics and so forth, it would be one of the most effective things we could do. It would impress the Russians that we are serious about our commitment to Europe...
...what he views as unfair competition from Japan, Inc. "The government and the business people and the bankers there move as one. The Japanese sell more than 1 million vehicles a year in the U.S., but they import fewer than 50,000 vehicles from all countries.

...their own race. It was a strange and destructive message that Good Times sent out when its producers eliminated not only the family's strong, if frustrated, father (John Amos) but also, later, its mother (Esther Rolle), who abandoned her three children in their Chicago housing project to move to Arizona to be with her new man. Says Rolle, who quit the show because of her differences with the producers over the way the characters were portrayed: "It was an outrage, an insult." The Rev. Jesse Jackson may have the most useful idea, which he offers to high school...
