Lead Editorial: San Francisco’s District Elections — Get Educated

In this presidential election year, San Francisco voter turn-out is expected to reach 60 percent. Drawn to the polls with the prospect of having a say in who leads our nation over the next four years, many will be well informed on where Bush and Gore stand on issues such as health care, education, tax cuts and social security. Most, however, may know much less about what’s going on right here in San Francisco. That is unless the public gets a heavy dose of education between now and Nov. 7.

Voices From the Community: My Mother, the Democrat

And why she still loves Bill Clinton

Like it or not, the Democratic Party’s base still loves Bill Clinton, like a mother loves a basically good son who can’t help but get himself into trouble every now and then.

That’s how my 83-year-old mom, who watched the Democratic National Convention on television, regards him. Al Gore should carefully handle the party rank-and-file’s abiding loyalty to Clinton as he separates himself from the morally stained president.

Mother likes America’s ill-starred royal family, the Kennedys, too. But Clinton, the commoner, is her man.
