wow..you are active tonight.(I promise I am not stalking you..just clicked on this thread and found you here...lol) Please explain to us how North Korea has 'dried on the vine', so to speak? They have starved their people for sure. Clintoon gave them the way to acquire nuclear weapons, not Nixon. If you are simple minded enough, to think that Nixon held the key to Communist China's ascendency in the world..you are a fool.
