		Stallwood testified that Duran "didn't want to have any government official telling him what to do," and that Duran had told her that "he hated [President Clinton] and if he had the chance he would kill him." Tr.
		Duran now claims that "neither Flores nor Warner would have been called during the merits phase of a bifurcated trial, as their evidence went only to the sanity issue," and therefore the fact of Duran's prior conviction would not have been heard by the jury in a separate merits phase of a bifurcated trial.
		We conclude, however, that Duran was not unfairly prejudiced by this testimony because overwhelming independent evidence of Duran's murderous hostility towards the President would have been presented in the merits phase of a bifurcated trial, and so the incremental impact of this macabre fantasy was minimal.

		And this past Saturday, the dishonorably discharged Francisco Duran, whipped out the semiautomatic weapon from his tan trenchcoat, pumping approximately two dozen rounds into the White House.
		Duran did leave his gray Chevy truck out on Pennsylvania Avenue, decorated with witty bumper stickers, advising the President to "Fire Butch Reno." And: "Those who beat their guns into plows will plow for those who don't." Whatever that means.
		Perhaps Duran developed his sense of humor, as well as his animosity for the President, while staying at the lovely Leavenworth military prison for the last few years.

	Duran Not Aiming at Clinton But Mentally Ill, Says Lawyer
		WASHINGTON -- Francisco Martin Duran, the Colorado man accused of trying to assassinate President Bill Clinton, suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and had no intention of killing the president when he opened fire on the White House in October, his attorney told a federal jury at the beginning of Duran's trial.
		Public defender A.J. Kramer said "something snapped" in Duran's mind after he dropped off his wife at work and his young son at day care on Sept. 30 in suburban Colorado Springs.
		Hearing voices and suffering from delusions, Duran left Colorado that day and headed to Washington, where he intended to shoot only at the White House, "a powerful symbol" of government, Kramer said.
