Over the past week, President Bush and Vice President Cheney have
thrown Sen. John F. Kerry on the defensive with a daily assault
designed to tarnish his credentials as a possible commander in chief.
But the orchestrated attacks also revealed the president's
vulnerabilities on the issue that continues to shape the presidential
campaign as much as any other.

How to Change Chinese Views of Americans

Last month Zhao Yan, a 37-year-old Chinese businesswoman, was beaten
and doused with pepper spray by a homeland security inspector while on
a tourist visit to Niagara Falls. The inspector later said he thought
she was part of a drug deal and that she resisted arrest. What has
followed in the wake of the assault is significant for further
revealing the troubling disconnect between Chinese and American
