Student Representatives of the three major presidential candidates tried to gain support for their standard-bearers at a sparsely-attended Science Center debate last night.
Jerome Fortinsky '83, representatives of independent candidate John B. Anderson drew laughs from the crowd when he said the race might turn out to be a fight between Anderson and Reagan, with Carter watching from the sidelines.
James E. Higgins '83 told the audience that Ronald Reagan deserved support because he was "the one candidate without ulterior motives."
And Carter representative Brad Lown '81-3 defended the incumbent as a "realistic" candidate. "Reagan is a consistent candidate--consistently against government and for cold war," Lown added.
James C. Thomson, curator of the Nieman Foundation and moderator of the discussion, drew laughs all night long--"after Tuesday our motto should be 'let us do better,'" he said.
