Episode 63: RICHARD NIXON The Man Who Saved the Union (Part 10) Eavesdropping on History, After the speech on Laos, response to "Nixon at War"

This episode begins just after President Nixon delivers his powerful speech going through the campaign in Laos and the advancements our side is making in extricating ourselves from the Vietnam War. It was a powerful moment for President Nixon.
Recently, another documentary titled "Nixon at War" , attempted to smear President Nixon for his conduct of the operation, that he lied in his speech, and they besmirched his character using only tidbits of the calls he made and received after the speech. The reality was , in our opinion, far different than what the documentary "Nixon at War" portrayed and therefore, in true "Bridging the Political Gap" fashion we thought we would just let the tape roll so that you could hear President Nixon for yourself. So you could hear the enormous positive reaction he received not just from his staff, which the other show accused of overly complimenting the President and playing to his insecurities, but also from the public, from people like Reverend Billy Graham and Actor Freeman Gosden , good , fine, and nongovernmental people.
Are there moments when Henry Kissinger, for example, may blow the smoke a little thick, sure there is, are there moments when President Nixon may fish for a compliment or two, sure there is, but there are no moments in which the President does not come across as a man sincerely doing everything he can to get our nation out of this war, a war he did not create nor mismanage, and to get us out of that war with honor and in a way that maintained our place as the leader of the free world.
Richard Nixon was determined to stop the high water mark of communism and its aggression right there in Vietnam, and in the end, he did.
