I Thought Nixon Was The Worst President

During The Second World War, The Germans Took Four Years To Build The Atlantic Wall. On Four Beaches It Held Up The Allies For About An Hour; At Omaha It Held Up The U.s. For Less Than One Day. The Atlantic Wall Must Therefore Be Regarded As One Of The Greatest Blunders In Military History.

Nixon Regarded Himself As Having Been Cheated By Life. He Never Got My Vote.

In The Nineteenth And Twentieth Centuries You Have These Great Nation States Hurling Their Young Men At One Another. The Victory Was Really Going To Rest On Who Could Do The Best Job Of Bringing Up Their Kids To Become Efficient And Effective Soldiers. That's Pretty Grandiose, I Guess, But I Do Think That, And Thank God It's Been The Armies Of Democracy That Have Emerged From This As The Triumphant Armies.

I Think It's Just That The Private Lives Of Our Public Leaders Are So Much More Exposed Today That If You're Sensitive To Protecting Your Family, It's Much Harder To Not Get Defensive When Somebody Asks You Those Really Rude Questions About What Your Wife And Your Children Are Thinking And Feeling At That Exact Moment.

I've Always Tried To Be Fair To My Subjects. That's Easy When They Are As Likable And Admirable As Lewis And Clark, Or Eisenhower.
