The article comments on political and economic developments all round the world. A year from now the last presidential primary will be completed in California, the party conventions will be setting up in the steamy South, the field of candidates will be radically depleted and perhaps three-quarters of the estimated $400 million that Americans are going to spend on the 1988 election will be distributed to television stations, consultants, advertising-space buyers, airlines, printers, telephone companies, district workers and the myriad recipients of what has become a quadrennial national welfare system.
