Elephants At Miami Spotlight On GOP Convention

In Miami Beach at the Republican national convention side show, elephants parade in colorful acts outside Convention Hall. A 40-foot orange rubber elephant floats above, while a Disneyland elephant, a cage caravan for Rockefeller, and a go go troupe perform as a stilt walker and balloon soar over the water. Ralph Abernathy vows a protest march with a mule train as Reagan’s film and other acts enrich the spectacle.
