But Carter is not named once. Most of the article harped on Reagan.

Yes, and the CP backed Clinton, didn't it?

Charles, don't let me get in the way of your orientation to the 
Democratic Party. One of the things I have learned about 
"Marxist-Leninist" party members and their sympathizers is that it 
virtually impossible to get them to admit that they are wrong. With you 
it is support for the Dems. With the ISO, it is opposing Cuba as 
"capitalist". As Joe E. Brown said to Jack Lemmon at the end of "Some 
Like it Hot": "Nobody's Perfect".
