In a Davis-era reminiscence tied to 20 years ago, the column recalls Truman's Colorado whistle stop campaign marked by small crowds and skeptical listeners. It contrasts Truman’s 1948 surge with Hubert Humphrey facing a similar challenge amid Wallace’s third party bid and echoes warnings about demagogic tactics and racial scapegoating.

Washington columnist Ray Cromley argues Americans lump rioters from Columbia, Chicago, Berkeley and the Pentagon marches as one group. He splits demonstrators into leaders, followers, sightseers, anti demonstrators and nonviolent participants, urging distinction between professionals and sincere, undercurrent critics demanding empathy. He says brutal tactics by organizers mask real grievances and calls for separating groups while acknowledging legitimate dissent.
