GEORGETOWN, Ohio | Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum could be the next president of the nation, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine said on Friday eve-ning to more than 800 Republi-cans at the annual Brown County Lincoln-Reagan dinner.

DeWine said he had been sup-porting Mitt Romney, but he has decided that Romney cannot win in the fall. Now, he believes Santorum has the passion to beat President Barack Obama as the GOP nominee, he said.

“People like him, he’s real … what you see is what you get. I truly believe he is the man to lead our party to victory,” DeWine said.

Santorum recently won pri-maries in Missouri, Colorado and Minnesota, and now he is leading in some polls. He was met enthu-siastically in Michigan and Ohio on Friday and Saturday, according to reports.

Appearing at Georgetown’s Ele-mentary school auditorium full of enthusiast Republicans, Santorum spoke on subjects that southern Ohioans seem concerned about – the poor economy, lack of jobs, taxes, health care, military de-fense, God and the constitution.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. | John Glenn joined the proud, surviving veterans of NASA’s Project Mer-cury on Saturday in celebrating the 50th anniver-sary of his historic orbital flight.

The first American to orbit the Earth thanked the approximately 125 retired Mercury workers, now in their 70s and 80s, who gathered with their spouses at Kennedy Space Center to swap stories, pose for pictures and take a bow.

“There are a lot more bald heads and gray heads in that group than others, but those are the people who did lay the foundation,” the 90-year-old Glenn said at an evening ceremony attended by NASA officials, politicians, astronauts and hun-dreds of others.

JERUSALEM | The U.S. and Britain on Sunday urged Israel not to attack Iran’s nuclear program as the White House’s national security adviser arrived in the region, reflecting growing interna-tional jitters that the Israelis are poised to strike.

In their warnings, both the chairman of the U.S. joint chiefs of staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey, and British Foreign Secretary William Hague said an Israeli attack on Iran would have grave conse-quences for the entire region and urged Israel to give international sanctions against Tehran more time to work. Dempsey said an Israeli attack is “not prudent,” and Hague said it would not be “a wise thing.” It was not known whether their mes-sages were coordinated.

Both Israel and the West believe Iran is trying to develop a nuclear bomb — a charge Tehran denies.

NEW YORK | The New York Po-lice Department monitored Muslim college students far more broadly than previously known, at schools far beyond the city limits, including the Ivy League colleges of Yale and the University of Pennsylvania, The Associated Press has learned.

Police talked with local authori-ties about professors 300 miles away in Buffalo and even sent an undercover agent on a whitewater rafting trip, where he recorded stu-dents’ names and noted in police intelligence files how many times they prayed.

Detectives trawled Muslim stu-dent websites every day and, al-though professors and students had not been accused of any wrongdo-ing, their names were recorded in reports prepared for Police Com-missioner Raymond Kelly.

Asked about the monitoring, police spokesman Paul Browne pro-vided a list of 12 people arrested or convicted on terrorism charges in the United States and abroad who had once been members of Muslim student associations, which the NYPD referred to as MSAs.

Jesse Morton, who this month pleaded guilty to posting online threats against the creators of “South Park,” had once tried to recruit followers at Stony Brook University on Long Island, Browne said.

“As a result, the NYPD deemed it prudent to get a better handle on what was occurring at MSAs,” Browne said in an email. He said police monitored student websites and collected publicly available in-formation, but did so only between 2006 and 2007.
