Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - November 10, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news these Days by George e. Sokolsky without meaning in most parts of the United states the recent election was without ideological position. Except in California and perhaps Arizona and Ohio most candidates discussed no issues avoiding them As dangerous and preferring to fill the air with a plethora of verbiage. In new York state where the Campaign had National overtones the candidates ran a contest Between eating goulash with their fingers and eating hot dogs off a Street Cornei push cart. Maybe the photographers will swear that they actually saw the candidate eat the stuff what governors talked about did not matter so much it being a sort of wrist slapping election. What candidates for the Senate or the House of representatives said could have been very significant but most of them spoke about the weather and the glories of this and that avoiding such subjects As inflation the foreign policy the peril of the Dollar and the danger of War. By avoiding such subjects the candidates also avoided putting their feet in their Mouths. It was As grand a display of nothingness As had Ever been seen. While these Fellows were travelling about spouting words the Quemoy shootings occurred and on that subject most politicians feared to talk because it could lose them j a vote or two either Way. Walter i 1 Linmann permitted himself this j a was for the United states having j to prove its courage or to lose 1 All its friends i would say that what we do about Quemoy is a test of the courage of the United j states Only if we announce to the world that we regard it As a test of our courage the world knows that we have fought three big wars in the past fifty years and the world Friendly hostile and Neutral will have no doubt about the courage of this no politician would say anything of the sort because it would be j like sticking a Finger into an enemy s Mouth. The world does not remember that we courageously fought three wars. A generation is growing up in Russia and China which never heard that the United states played any important role Ini world War ii this same Genera j Tion does not know that we gave soviet Russia $11,000.000 000 for free out of the generosity of our1 hearts that generation Only knows that negroes cannot go to schools in Little Rock and that Paul Robeson cannot sing at the metropolitan opera. Unfortunately tor or. Lippmann tace world is not As erudite As he is and does not remember yester j Day s news. Politicians in every country want to know what did you do for me today yesterday s generosity was to meet yesterdays problems. Today is a new Day. So the candidates could not go i along w Ith Lippmann because there Are no votes in that. Republican and Democrat they avoided the entire subject they left it to John Foster Dulles and hoped nothing serious would come of it. They who Are the people s representatives. According to the Constitution. Became the people s tasters of pizza pies and Irish col fee to say nothing of refuel the fish and Saue Braten. You May say that Why is this different from kissing babies or attending wakes and bar Mitzvah or laying Cornerstones truly it is not different it is All of a piece of nonsense which is unrelated to the subject of whether a candidate is worthy of j election or not. A citizen observing the conduct of some candidates j could easily have thought that it might be be St not to vote at All is a night club exhibitionist any worse than some candidates who suddenly become a a democratic for a month before election Day and 1 then develop into stuffed shirts if. Elected by the people the Republican process is a theory of popular Choice the people set up their own government by electing chosen representatives. Those who present themselves to be chosen usually conform to a Type desired by the people of a Partick a Lar generation in a particular area. 1 if the kind of Campaign which was conducted this year is what the people want then something is lacking in our education and upbringing. We do not demand enough of our candidates. They Are actors not debaters. They project personalities not issues they raise their hands like prize fighters acknowledging the Public applause but they give no evidence of humility or of any doubt As to the per feet Ion of themselves.
