cant believe some of the non sense im reading here. What him and Nixon were handed in 1969, its a miracle the US came out of that as well as it did. 600,000 troops stuck in Vietnam...Soviets had 9 million troops from the inter-german border all the way back to moscow. China stunned the world by getting a nuclear weapon...a billion people with a nuclear weapon simply CANT be ignored. Kennedy was secretly bombing Laos and Cambodia years before Nixon did. Kennedy and especially Johnson scewed up the Vietnam war so badly....Kissinger and Nixon were brilliant men...and did a brilliant job.
And to think we almost had Goldwater.
