Moreover, Mr. Fryer said, Mr. O'Rourke agreed on Friday to participate in the
debate knowing that Dr. Fulani was to be included. And he said Mr. O'Rourke had
also agreed to participate in debates this week on WNBC-TV in New York and at
the City Club, both forums in which Dr. Fulani also had been invited ta appear.
Role for Fulani Denied
Mr. Cuomo asked Friday that Dr. Fulani be included in the debates at The
Times and in Albany. David Hepp, producer of the Albany program, agreed, but The
Times declined. Mr. Fryer said the Governor would nonetheless attend both
debates.
Traditionally, The Times invites candidates of major parties that have
permanent baliot spots by having got at least 50,000 votes in the last election.
Besides the Democratic and Republican Parties, the Conservative, Liberal and
Right to Life Parties all have such ballot positions, but the New Alliance
Party, which had only a small fraction of the necessary votes, does not have a cae
permanent ballot designation.
New Alliance literature calls the party a ''black-led, multiracial party'' ~
that is part of the Rainbow Coalition, an affilation of minority groups that
supported the 1984 Presidential candidacy of Jesse Jackson. Among the New
Alliance's goals are ''full civil rights for lesbians and gays, the scapegoats
ef the rapidly growing right wing,'' and ‘‘jobs at livable wages for all.''
Irwin Suall, fact-finding director of the Anti-Defamation League, said the ae
New Alliance was a ''far-left organization with a streak of anti-Semitism'' and 4
‘ta cult-Like quality sullt around @ quasi-cult Jeeder called Fred Nensan, the a
party's founder and leader.’
