Grateful for support and help
Faces of Reservation wins top honors
It was once said that Bush
was concerned about the home
less.. .the ones who don't have a
summer home. Bush accused
Dakakis of a total lack of mis
understanding of our military
and called the Nov. 8. election a
referendum on military policy.
DakakLscriticicd Bash for opposing
increases in the minimum wage and
for advocating a trade policy
that he said seemed like a re-run
of "Let's Make A Deal." To
this date there hasn't been any
real address made on any issue
and on what steps they would
take to solve the problem. Take
the death penality and the abor
tion issue, which both seem to
sway away from as much as
possible. When ever the qucs-
tion arises they
start to make their remarks on what the issue is all about but they
never say what they would do about the situation, they always shift
the question on the other guy, of what he is doing wrong about the
whole thing, but they never say what they would do themselves.
Bush said that he will fight to the end and if any of his staff are
not doing what they should be doing in the campaign, they are
history. Dukakis, on the other hand, does mingle with the main
stream of the public and that's out on the streets with the working
people asking questions and trying to give answers. It will be a very
interesting race for the presidency. Well, we've had some doozies
in the past and seem to survive, but to do that again and again is
not the best for this country.
Speaking of candidates, a tribe in Montana had a couple of War
Bonnets for vice-presidential candidate Dan Quayle., The tribe
asked Quayle to Come and visit the reservation and his reply jwas,
"I don't have the time.'; Later on, that tribe received a call saying
that Quayle wanted to use those War Bonnets at another gather
ing. The Tribe's response was that if he didn't have time to visit the
reservation they didn't have time to deliver the head dresses to
Quayle. And again, they thought that those head dresses were
appropriate for Quayle because they were fake; made out of turkey
feathers, they were.
To the People,
We, the family of Desmond

ation and thank you for the many

well, wins top honors at the second
