buffalo fighting fires democratic presidential candidate walter mondale's son ted came to buffalo to try and put out the reagan bush fire that threatens to burn up the ethnic labor minority and women democratic voting machine he dashed in the crowd of students at buffalo state college bsc with some traditional rallying slogans and slangs that generally puts out the flames of despair this is a special day because its 45 days until the election and ronald reagan finds out that he'll be president no longer said ted mondale this pail of merriment aroused only polite responses his speech went pretty much the way of a lecture except the mentioning of the vice presidential candidate geraldine ferraro the democratic party is on fire because the great coalition of european ethnics and third world minorities are consuming themselves in the ever decreasing american job market young mondale said there is unity in the party jesse jackson hart and other candidates now are working together for the democratic party this election is about what kind of people we are do we care for the less well off ronald reagan gives tax breaks to giant corporations and ships jobs overseas still most of the students gathered refused to pick up and wave mondale-ferraro signs since the end of legal slavery in america capitalists have devised a new way of exploiting workers first the capitalists employs his own family and relatives paying them little or nothing for their labor louisiana sage eli s waff or d said when they need more workers they hire white laborers shortly after the white laborers demand a fair share of the profits the capitalists hire minorities to replace the white laborers whenever the minorities become educated to the fact that their labor . should earn them better wages they hire immigrants from one culture whenever those workers get uncontrol able they shift to another cultural and/or ethnic group that is why the people who break the system are seldom more than three generations from other nations young mondale was escorted by an old friend the president of bsc dr d bruce johnstone who said i was administrative assistant in 1969-'7o for then senator mondale i served him as by abdullah luqman a speech writer and legislative director i continue to have enormous regards for his integrity intelligence and his grasps for what the nation needs if we don't vote nobody listens to what we say mondale said if we vote people will listen to what we have to say then he referred them to the new york public interest research roup nypirg who has a goal of registering

thomas canity local board chair we have gone into college dormitories shopping malls and high schools we are going out to the under-registered areas to register voters the republicans have aready got their act together a highly organized republican drive have been quietly registering likely republican voters this drive has been going on at colleges universities private clubs and other likely republican breeding grounds according to sources close to the head of the 10 million effort to register those republicans and/or those who like president reagan tv dem(<crats have been talking voter registration every since the great surge by rev jesse jackson in the primary but they are just getting into high gear — maybe the executive director for the southwest hispanic voters william velasquez said it's amazing to me how you have four years to prepare for the election and the democrats wind up doing their registration drive in the last two or three weeks the republicans began their final drive last spring they claim to have registered 2.2 million sure reagan supporters bill lacy of the republican national committee said we have had a tremendous advantage in the only resource that is not replaceable and that is time if the democratic party is burned to the ground i see in its ashes a phoenix the phoenix is the fabled bird that burned itself up and rose from its own ashes the water
