As Governor of California, Reagan signed a relatively liberal abortion law, but now says that was a mistake; he advocates a constitutional amendment forbidding all abortions except those necessary to save the lives of mothers. He proposes another amendment to permit "voluntary" school prayer: "I think we are a nation under God.

...peculiar colony. Prof. Peter Murray plays a Professor Perinifield in a scene in an HLS classroom: I think he is modeled on someone and I am sure he is very funny. There is another sketch at something called the Daily Gannett, which I think parodies the Law School newspaper, except I'm not sure there is a Law School newspaper. After that they parody the BSA. I thought the BSA was the Black Students Association. But the sketch was a barrel of ho-hos, I'm sure...
