...quite do that, he is entirely capable of turning his campaign over to subordinates. Two weeks ago, he took three days off to visit his alma mater, St. John's University at Collegeville, Minn.

We have made no progress except the withdrawl of Lyndon Johnson. Instead we have Richard Nixon and Hubert Humphrey. There is no solution in sight. The War could be stopped if one hundred million Americans stood and said: let's stop it.
