...disclose information not required by law. "It's a tough assignment, but so is dealing with the Soviets," Dole shot back with relish. The crack lost much of its bite when Dole acknowledged that only his own tax return?not that of his wife?was made public when he ran for Vice President...
...campaign's success will hinge to an unusual degree on the candidate's personal magic, he is more than just a jolly master of ceremonies: Reagan goes to the voters with a message and a record in office.

The company and its public have an intricate, almost passionate relationship. In the minds of executives in Sears Tower, customers are always present. At Batogowski's staff meetings, an empty chair sits among the participants. On it is a sign with the words THE CUSTOMER. Americans, in turn, respond to that attention. Sears gets letters all the time asking its advice on almost every human problem, from marital...
