Chuck Kennedy Knight Ridder Tribune
Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., addresses a crowd at Georgetown University, in Washington, D.C., on April 7,

continued from page 1
economic policy that's seen us lose
three million jobs, which is the great
est job loss in the history of the coun
try since Herbert Hoover was presi
dent," Kerry said. "I think it's a pretty
stark choice and we want students to
begin to recognize their power in
helping to decide the outcome of this
election and have an impact on their
own lives."
Kerry criticized Bush for not help
ing states with their budget problems,
proposing a $25 billion aid package
to states as well.
Kerry also addressed concerns
about a new military draft, saying he
would not support it.
"(Increasing military forces) will
be done by having a more sensible
foreign policy where young people
don't feel as if their leadership is
making irresponsible decisions
based on their presence in the mili
tary," he said. "If we have a more rea
sonable approach to our relation
ship with the rest of the world, I
don't think you'll have any problem
at all fulfilling ... those positions."
Kerry suggested a new program to
provide young people who do not
serve in the military with an option to
commit two years to local community
service in exchange for four years of
college tuition.
Kerry said his other priorities in
clude the future availability of Social
Security, affordable health care, creat
ing new jobs and developing renew
able energy.
He also wants young voters to be
come more actively involved in the
political system.
"Young people have this enormous
power and they really have to under
stand it and embrace it and go out
and use it," Kerry said. "What we need
to do is make some of the issues that
matter to people voting issues again."
The session was the latest part of
Kerry's Change Starts with U Campus
Tour 2004, a series of trips to univer
sity campuses to meet with students.
Sophomore Jonathon Hogate,
treasurer of the University College Re
publicans, said Kerry often tries to
damage Bush's reputation while ad
vocating costly programs.
"It appears that he wants to do a lot
of financial things," Hogate said.
"However, he seems to be kind of
backing himself into a corner saying
he doesn't plan on raising taxes dra
matically. How does he plan on creat
ing a $25 billion dollar aid package to
the states if he doesn't plan on raising
taxes significantly?"
Hogate said he also opposes Kerry's
service program.
"I think that the country will be put
ting more money into it than it will be
benefiting the country as a whole,"
Hogate said. "Therefore, I think it will
be draining funds from a country that's
already running in a deficit."
Senior Kevin Curtin, chairman of
the University College Democrats,
said he is generally pleased with Ker
ry's campaign priorities.
"I'm glad that it seems like now
he's making higher education a big
issue," Curtin said. "I hope that
higher education doesn't get put on
the back burner."

LIFE
continued from page 1
before about 100 LCC students.
He old them that 20,000 men have
lots their lives needlessly since Nixon
took office and they applaud. He told
them that 300 millionaires paid no
taxes last year and they share his silent
frown.
But Kerry's real message was, "We
must get out and canvass for George
McGovern if we want to reclaim our
country," This message was not as s
passively accepted by the audience, a
group geared to take to the streets.
A man in the back shouted his sup
port for the "revolution of today." Ker
ry let the man spit out may excited ac
cusations, then patiently painted him
into a comer. Suddenly the student
said, "All right. I'll cut my hair and
knock on doors for your man."
If the campaign meeting had been
more slickly organized, one would
strongly suspect the back-of-the
crowd heckler of being a plant. But
with the informal disorder of the
gathering, the conversion was written
off as just one more odd occurrence
during a week full of such happen
ings.
After leaving LCC, Kerry headed on
to the University for yet another
speech in the seemingly endless pa
rade of them. When he finished, the
remainder of this day was given to
such things as taping a interview for a
radio station in Klamath Falls and lec
turing local McGovern campaigners
on the techniques of canvassing.
But for a handsome young Yale
graduate seeking to get ahead in the
often mad race of electoral politics,
such tasks are necessary. Every tomor
row brings a new state of the same.
