That speech pushed Carter too far to the left, and he later tried to move back toward the middle. But his position in the political spectrum remained unclear, and he alienated many of the independents. On Nov. 2 Ford carried white America by a narrow margin. The Georgian was saved by the Americans who trusted him most: the blacks. They felt at ease with the white Southerner who had fought, though vainly, to integrate his hometown church, and who had put so many blacks into government at all levels in Georgia. Indeed, they had more faith in Carter than...

Carter's own views are still unclear, and perhaps undecided. The President-elect said last week at a news conference that "my own preference is to concentrate on job opportunities"−meaning he would put more emphasis on Government spending for job-creating programs, less on a tax cut. On the Board of Economists, Nathan favors that approach as a method not only to put people to work but to begin tackling some of the nation's unmet social needs−for example, mass transit and aid to education. Other Democrats on the board doubt that new spending...

Sudden Death. The primary cause of this breathing failure remains unclear, though sometimes it appears to be linked with obesity. In any case, drowsiness is only the mildest byproduct. The disorder can lead to hypoxia (low blood oxygen), hypertension (high blood pressure), heart disease and in some cases sudden death. Nor is it easily treatable. Conventional sleeping pills can actually worsen the problem by increasing the breathing difficulty.

Figuring Damages. Though it is still unclear just how the damages against Nixon and his co-defendants will be computed-the judge left that to a later hearing-Halperin's lawyers want it figured according to the formula now in the federal wiretap law: $100 per day per victim, which for the five Halperins for 630 days would add up to $315,000 against each of the three defendants...

...suggests there are no Cuban representatives in Angola, but their role is still unclear. The Angolan government asserts they are no more than friendly advisors, and there is no evidence to prove otherwise. The United States recognized the lack of such evidence when it changed its stance to abstention, but it should have gone further and moved for admission. If the U.N. is to be a viable force in international relations, it must include every independent nation, regardless of political alliances. The U.S. refusal to recognize Angola's sovereignty must be construed as an insult to President Neto...
