The moderator for the debate was Howard K Smith. Marvin Stone from US News and World Report asked Governor Reagan about the use of American military power. He replied that the first priority must be world peace. President Carter was asked the same question. He replied that he was committed to a strong national defense. Both gentlemen were asked about the reduction in the US military forces. President Carter replied that using US military forces around the world was better for the country. Governor Reagan's answer was that US forces should be increased not decreased.
More than one thousand miles to the west in the city of Evergreen Colorado, a twenty five year old drifter was paying close attention to what was going on during the debate.
