CIMA, interesting article and could you please comment on following.

<<Americans are electing a president who has less power, less control
in American daily lives, and less influence in important issues,
... than at any time since the 1920s.>>

<<... candidates can't find fundamental issues to debate, unlikely
that Americans will take the choice all that seriously.>>

<<The election will reminiscent more of constitutional monarchs
than of the influential presidents we had become used to.>>

<<Until the market crashes or a foreign enemy arises, it just doesn't
much matter who the next president is. That is why candidates leap
ahead effortlessly without anyone knowing what they stand for.
It doesn't matter all that much what policies they support.>>

thanks
doug

New Missile Reported in North Korea
California Is Within Its Range, a Defector Tells South Koreans

By Don Kirk International Herald Tribune
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEOUL - A senior North Korean scientist who reportedly defected to the United States has told South Korean authorities that the North has developed a missile capable of reaching California, a leading newspaper here reported Friday.
The defector, Lim Ki Sung, said the missile had a range of 6,000 kilometers, 3,725 miles, far longer than defense experts had previously estimated, Chosun Ilbo, South Korea's largest newspaper, reported.

'That distance would be a really big development,' said Cho Chung Pyo, assistant foreign affairs secretary on the staff of President Kim Dae Jung. 'That kind of capability was never previously indicated.'(cont)
