WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Edward Kennedy,
insisting again he will fight President Carter's
renomination all the way, said yesterday that Ronald
Reagan could win the White House in a walk this fall
if Democrats don't reject President Carter's policies.
"The Democratic Party must do better in 1980 than
to offer itself as the lesser of two evils," Kennedy said
in a speech at American University that included a
slashing attack on Reagan one day after the former
California governor accepted the GOP presidential
nomination.
"WE HAVE ONLY four more months to convince
the voters that America is not Hollywood, the
Republicans are not the party of the future, and
Ronald Wilson Reagan is not Franklin Delano
Roosevelt," said Kennedy, who has pursued his
challenge to Carter doggedly despite the president's
seeming lock on the Democratic nomination.
The Massachusetts senator traveled to Washington
to deliver the speech after spending several days at
his home on Cape Cod. One top aide said Kennedy has

been telephoning delegates to next month's
Democratic National Convention. Kennedy so far has
been talking with his own delegates, the aide said, but
hopes to make conference calls during the next
several days to small groups of delegates pledged to
the president.
Asserting that this week's Republican National
Convention in Detroit "summoned America
backwards," Kennedy criticized Reagan's policies
one by one. Taken together, he said, they amount to
"all hole and rio doughtlut."
THE GOP'S CALL for a massive, across-the-board
income tax cut amounts to "Laetrile for the
American economy," he said. Laetrile is a substance
touted by some as a cure for cancer, but believed by
many authorities to be useless and perhaps even
dangerous.
On foreign policy, Kennedy said, Reagan would
place the United States "squarely on the wrong side
of history ... wherever people are yearning to be
free."
