Miami, November 21—The questioning of Ronald Reagan at the press conference had a clear-cut theme. Is Reagan an extremist? The question was put to him indirectly several times, directly only once, when he was asked: Mr. Reagan, aren’t you out of the mainstream of American life, and do you think the people want an extremist for President?
Reagan’s answer was highly disarming, though incomplete. He said: Look, I was governor of the state of California for eight years. My record as governor has been thoroughly explored. Pray, tell me what extremity I committed during those years?
