ADVISORY/Hugh Downs, Gore Vidal Talk Presidential Campaigns, Legalizing Drugs and the United States of Amnesia.


News/Assignment Editors

ADVISORY...for Tuesday Tuesday: see week.  (Sept. 12)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)


What:           Veteran journalist and iNEXTV Chief Correspondent Hugh
                Downs sits down with the incomparable Gore Vidal to
                discuss the state of the union and the nation's path
                for tomorrow.

They discuss:   Presidential Politics: Campaign Reform? "He who has
                raised the most money is going to be the candidate,
                that's the major change since 1960 to 2000. Corruption
                -- which has been with us, it's part of the fun of a
                Democracy...is institutionalized, it's systemic, and
                it can't change.""The same people that pay for the one
                candidate...pay for the other candidate."

                And Third Party Candidates...well it will take
                something drastic like another great depression in
                order to create a successful Third Party.

                Balance in the media? You have to see it to believe
                it!

                Federal Funding to Columbia for the War on Drugs:
                The United States is "nation destroying" similar to
                Guatemala, and we run the risk of another Vietnam.
                Politicians and the military need something to do.

                How to solve the problem? Legalize Drugs.

                The United States of Amnesia: Interesting comments of
                what we have forgotten...and why.
