Still, neither man would suggest that they are good chums. Their down-to-the-wire battle, moreover, must be a welcome spectacle to the man both ache to displace: Ronald Reagan.

No, Mr. Howe, I personally am not satisfied with the meagre three pages that President Bok devotes to the issue in his last book and with the few constructive suggestions he has made in his open letters.
