A historical analysis argues the Republican Party faces long term decline as it lacks broad middle class appeal. It notes losses in president and Congress hamper leadership recruitment and that debates over conservatism versus liberalism miss the core issue of access for average citizens to a relatable program.
The text argues the Republican Party needs a new approach to younger and middle aged voters. It cites a negative image of the party as status quo and focused on dollars over people. It calls for realistic, people oriented answers and contemporary leadership to regain dominance in Arizona and nationally.
A dramatic warning describes a deadly game of chance at the Phoenix intersection of 44th Street and Camelback Road. It notes high traffic from all directions, no left turn signals, and frequent near misses as the city does little to reduce the danger.
President-elect Carter confronts a divided circle over who should head the Treasury. Advisers discuss Wall Street financier Peter Peterson or Dallas banker Robert Stewart as reassuring choices, while liberals push for a pro spending liberal, amid fears of alienating base and stalling capital investment.
In a satirical history, Arthur Hoppe envisions a Second Civil War after Carter wins in 1976. The piece depicts a Western rebellion against an Eastern establishment, with Beauregard Lee and Reagan as figures in a comically revived nation. The narrative heightens regional tensions and ponders a distant West revival.
In a column from Washington, John D. Lofton Jr. argues Ronald Reagan would likely have fared better than Ford against Carter. He notes Reagan’s outsider stance could have weakened Carter’s hold, especially in the solid South, and cites undecided voters and debate dynamics as key factors.
