U.S. President
Sir, — I have long wondered whether politics is a branch of the acting profession, but now I am sure it is. The election of Mr Reagan, with all due respect for his many abilities, is an example of an experienced professional actor beating a comparative novice. Why not replace Mr Muldoon with an accomplished actor in 1981? A man such as Sir Alec Guinness could at least act the part of a credible Prime Minister, and might even get along with Tom Scott. — Yours, etc. F. ROBINSON. November 8, 1980.
