Hart fights image problem on road to White House
Editor’s note: The following is one
in a series on the presidential candidates
for 1988. Friday's analysis will feature
Democrat Paul Simon.
By Rudy Klancnik
Daily Reporter
If anything, Democratic candidate
Gary Hart has not run into a name
recognition problem with the American
people. However, in this case, publicity
has not been a very positive thing.
In the 1984 presidential race Hart
gave Walter Mondale, the eventual win-
ner in the Democratic convention, a
strong run for his money. Many thought
that in ’88 Hart would be able to go
that one big step farther.
N
Analysis^
But as the Donna Rice affair became
national and international news, Hart’s
presidential ambitions dropped con-
siderably. At one point, to protect his
family and his name, he decided to drop
out of the race. Now that Hart has
re-entered the race, his campaign has
struggled at best, and many think he
will fall from the running if he does
not have a strong showing in the Super
Tuesday Primary.
To his loyalists, Hart is a profile of
courage — a man who, despite making
a mistake, has political integrity and
the clearest vision among the candidates
of where the country should be going.
To his detrators, who include some
longtime friends and much of the De-
mocratic Party establishment, his big
comeback is a self-indulgent act that
adds to questions about his credibility
and fitness to be president.
Although Hart has fared well in some
nationwide polls, his negative rating
from voters has been the top of the list.
He is credited for being an adept pack-
ager of ideas with a keen ability to
synthesize and articulate policies. In
foreign policy, he often espouses a more
systematic view of the world than other
candidates. On certain issues, notably
military reform, he has been at the
cutting edge since his years in the
Senate.
Here’s how Hart stands on some of
the major campaign issues:
NATIONAL SECURITY. He calls
for less expensive, more effective wea-
pons. He supports the Intermediate-range
Nuclear Forces Treaty as a step toward
further arms reductions. Hart also favors
Chemistry has minority program
Department offers credit, funds for student researchers
By Brian Boney
Daily Reporter
The NT chemistry department has
started accepting applications for the
1988 Summer Minority Research Pro-
gram.
Each of the participants chosen will
receive $1,900 during an eight-week
period beginning June 6.
Dr. Alan Marchand of the chemistry
faculty said, "This program has helped
a lot of minority students who otherwise
would not have been able to study here
during the summer.”
The participants will cam six hours
of undergraduate credit while engaging
in research with members of the chem-
istry faculty.
Applicants must be enrolled as un-
dergraduate chemistry students who
expect to graduate in 1989 or 1990 and
also meet the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services’ definition of mi-
nority students.
The health department defines mi-
norities as citizens of the United States
who are black American, native Amer-
ican, Oriental American or Spanish-
sumamed American.
The program is open only to students
who are residents of Texas.
Marchand said, “Projects are avail-
able in the five traditional areas of
chemistry (analytical, organic, inorganic,
physical and biochemistry) and a variety
of interdisciplinary fields.”
The program is trying to attract wo-
men. Marchand said, "Women are
under-represented in chemistry and re-

* The College of Business Administra-
tion will have its second business com-
puter colloquium from 2 to 5 p.m.
Friday in Business Administration Build-
ing 154.
The purpose of the colloquium is "to
attempt to bring together faculty mem-
bers who are doing research and industry
representatives who share common areas
of interest in business computer re-
search,” said Cengiz Capan, infor-
mation systems director of the Business
Computing Center. It will also demon-
strate the research laboratory environ-
ment, he said.
The college would like to see more
research being done in computers by
itself and industries, he said.

lated professions.”
A new phase of the program is being
instituted in 1988 to help minority stu-
dents adjust to life as graduate students.
Marchand said, “In the past, we
have found that a number of summer
program participants who entered our
graduate program experienced difficulty
as graduate students."
A new fellowship program for mi-
nority students who enroll as full-time
graduate students will begin this year.
Recipients of the fellowship are exempt
from teaching and will also have access
to free tutoring.
The program was founded in 1982
by Dr. Robert Toulouse, who was NT s
vice president for academic affairs.
Toulouse is in charge of funding for
the program.

cuts in the Strategic Defense Initiative.
THE BUDGET. Hart advocates a
budget package that would reduce the
deficit to $41 billion by 1993. He calls
for cuts in military spending of $44
billion over the next five years through
unspecified military reforms and he asks
for trims on farm subsidies.
TAXES. Hart advocates increased
taxes for the wealthy and supports an
oil import fee and greater taxes on
tobacco, liquor and certain luxury items.
TRADE. Hart opposes tariffs and
quotas.
EDUCATION. Hart advocates high-
er salaries for teachers coupled with
competency tests and in-class evalua-
tions. He suggests lengthening the school
year. He calls for more adult educational
retraining and more foreign-language
instruction.
FAMILY ISSUES. Hart supports
federally funded child-care services and
child-care tax credits.
His sharpest critics say Hart's frater-
nizing with a Miami model at a Wash
ington town house and on a boat off
Florida and his explanations afterward
were part of a pattern of deceit, ques-
tionable judgment and lack of self-dis-
cipline that makes him unfit to lead
HART
America. Critics point to Hart’s fuzzy
explanation about why he changed his
name (he had been Hartpence before
1961), a discrepancy regarding his age,
other alleged "womanizing” incidents,
and a somewhat cavalier attitude about
past campaign debts.
Hart grew up in Kansas and was
elected as Senator from Colorado. He
attended the Yale University Law School
and worked for both John and Robert
Kennedy. He also captained Democrat
George McGovern’s successful grass-
roots presidential nomination drive in
1972.
