...candidates in 1976 certainly do not compare with our very best, nor the campaign with our most electrifying contest. Still, this election is not as deplorable as the media would have us believe, and they have done the nation a great disservice by spreading this fiction...
...When the nation's first black theater group opened in New York City in 1821, race-baiting whites in the audience proved so unruly that the company had to close down. Broadway today is witness to an explosion of all-black shows, which are also being loudly and insistently stopped by their audiences.

What is needed is diversity, but meanwhile medical schools continue to prescribe uniformity. Hungering after new research funds and prestige, they will never encourage their graduates to go practice in the hills. And until working in a lab and treating infections are considered equally important, and until everyone is equally free to do either, those people in North Dakota will continue to cry for a doctor in the dark...
