...worked in Viet Nam for almost two years. I had many good friends, Vietnamese and Americans, die there. I believe I can honestly say that I hate the war and wish it could stop now! But this Moratorium bit makes me sick. It makes me want to stand and yell . . . but what? How can anyone yell for a war that is so terrible? I was going to say terrible and senseless, but it isn't senseless. Let's publicly admit it. We have contained China. Had we not gone into Viet Nam I am certain that China would...

Eight of his nine most recent predecessors served as Interior Minister, the most important Cabinet post, before taking over the presidency. Diaz Ordaz and other P.R.I, chieftains expect little change in policies-with good reason, for Echeverria was selected as party candidate by the President himself, in concert with party leaders and the country's three living ex-Presidents...
