our 36th president, many of which concern the vietnam war. here are two letters from soldiers during the height of president johnson s tenure in office which reflect the dramatically contrasting views of the war held by americans, including our troops. dear mr. president, here is a picked of a little vietnamese girl and myself. she has three older sisters, two older brothers, and a younger brother. they live in a village about eight miles southeast of ten ang, their mother was killed by the vc. because of us, she is able to smile. it is our duty to keep that smile, which portrays so much on herrize face. but there are many more who do not have the freedom smile which she has. it is our duty as americans to bring happiness to those who may otherwise never be as free of care as she. to be able to pose with her and have her still look so happy gives the idea of the good we are doing here. this is worth fighting for. this is worth dying for. i know the weight you must carry on yo
off. would have come in on a crest of patriotic taking over now in a crisis feeling out in the country, so i feel that ago knew s troubles which had nothing to do with watergate were a major part and probably the most skillfully crafted foreign policy leader. i agree with part of that. i believe if you had taken away watergate and if he had managed to get to a second term of course, there was still vietnam. to put that issue aside and just say that nothing had happened bad in the second term, i think he would have been he wouldn t have been on rushmore but he would have been in the 1920s or high teens. but he took on this unbelievably difficult task taking on this war at a time when the country was as divided as in the civil war. it s no and he still managed to put together a structure for the kind of multipolar world that we live in today, opening china, soviet union, allowing japan and germany to rebuild. i still think that and then given today s polarize politi
agriculture sector. they say that 40% of his food and drugs come from europe and he is really hurting the russian people. yeah, that s right. i mean, it s tragic in my view. not least because we worked several years when i was in the government to try to increase trade and investment including food imports to russia. and at the end of the day, who is going to be hurt is the russian consumers both because these goods will no longer be on the russian market and because their absence will increase inflation. that s just simple market logic. the consumers in russia are the ones that are going to be hurt, not the americans. and there are a number of ceos who have been here in washington for this africa summit. they re bidding on african contracts trying to counteract china which has been investing so heavily in the continent. they ve all been largely affected because these are big global players. they say that it isn t good for their companies but they think the u.s. is doing
question of did donald trump commit treason? and we have a model from the past of a presidential candidate in donald trump s situation dealing with a foreign country in a way that people suspect donald trump has been dealing with russia. all of that coming up. hacking is a very hard thing to prove so it could be somebody else. he needs to stop denigrating the intelligence committee. he s going it rely on them. and i also know things that other people don t know. you ll find out on tuesday or wednesday. is he holding it out there like some tease for a reality show? i think he does know things. that s why he s the president-elect. trump does not have any better information than president obama. putin has hacked into our elections, trying to undermine democracy all over the world. we will be working for much tougher sanctions against russia. trump, himself, praised vladimir putin for not responding in kind. great move on delay by v. putin. i always knew he was
1968. got us in this war and afraid to get us out. richard nixon is behind the effort to sabotage peace. what we do or fail to do can determine the future of peace and freedom for the balance of this century. tens of thousands of young americans and vietnamese died. that s what was at stake. it was horrendous. it was treason, by any standard. this wealthy and connected asian american woman could change history. lbj knew there was collusion. definitely a smoking gun, as regard to richard nixon s direct involvement in actions. conducting a foreign power in the middle of a war and they oughtn t be doing this. this is treason. it s november 3rd, just two days before the 1968 presidential election. mr. president, i m getting him right on. mr. president? yes? this is dick nixon. yes, dick? in a call secretly recorded by the white house, president lyndon johnson draws a line in the sand for richard nixon, the republican candidate for president. lynd
