...With his landslide election victory, his trips to Moscow and Peking and his efforts, however unsuccessful so far, to end the war, the President pre-eminently qualified for a second term as Man of the Year," says Nation Editor Jason McManus. "Kissinger, the President's plenipotentiary and alter ego in foreign affairs, played a quintessential role in Nixon's achievements, even in the election, where the voters' perception of the Administration's record and its competence to govern rested in no small part on the teamwork of the two men." With this issue, President Nixon becomes...
...Musical Express stresses Alice's offstage normaley. Nick Kent, the interviewer, remarks on the apparent paradox between the Alice Cooper image and the man. He refers to "the charm and good manners of the All-American college boy he appears when not giving vent to his transvestite juvenile delinquent alter-ago." Kent also notes his own surprise at "how overtly masculine they (the band) look," and Alice's cross-country career at his Phoenix high school.

Instead, human relations are intensified, conflicts blown out of proportion. Discipline may repress the discussion, official commands may alter the symptoms, but the underlying problems remain...

RACE. Nixon shows little evident interest in America's most serious continuing challenge: race relations. He feels no political obligation to blacks, who again voted overwhelmingly Democratic. While apparently retreating from school integration, Nixon offers no plan to help blacks move into white neighborhoods and thus alter racial housing and school-district patterns. He is expected to appoint more blacks to Government posts, perhaps even the Cabinet, which might make a significant symbolic point but could have little practical effect. While the ghettos have not been burning, racial discontent remains a potentially explosive problem...
