Scenes of brides blushing at the altar, children gazing at the Stars and Stripes, and smiling consumers buying new cars form part of films depicting Reagan's America as a happy place. "It's morning again in America," says a narrator at the beginning of one film, as a schooner leaves harbNur in a golden sunrise. A still photo of the president appears right at the end.  More in a moment.........

Difficulty in financing the Reagan government's debts is putting strain on the American bond market. This month, dealers had great problems selling the US Government paper they had taken on. And confidence in the banks has been harmed by the large amounts they are owed by debt-ridden third-world states. And their position is made worse by high interest rates, caused by...the US budget deficit.  More in a moment.........

Hart, on the ojher hand, would lose by only 45% to Reagan's 49% — but he would still lose. Of Democrat voters questioned, 60% said they preferred Mondale to Hart.  More in a moment.........

Sometimes Mondale or Hart phones the delegate personally; phone contact is backed up by letters and handouts suited to the delegate's interests.  More in a moment.........

At a meeting with Jackson on May 22, party national chairman Mr Charles Manatt again said he would ask states to allot Jackson some of their "unpledged" delegate votes. This could hamper Mr Mondale, who hopes support among these extra delegates may ensure his nomination. But so far only Arizona and Vermont have promised to allow Jackson extra delegates.  More in a moment.........
