Bundy said it was his "personal bet" that the Paris peace negotiations would not proceed far during 1969--even with the bombing stopped--but commented that it was nevertheless necessary to "lift this burden from our lives" by deciding to "steadily, systematically, and substantially reduce the number of American casualties, the number of Americans in Vietnam, and the cost...
...primary failure of the Cox report is that--unlike the Kerner Commission Report--Crisis at Columbia does not deal with solutions or propose ways to proceed. Where Kerner's group made specific recommendations on what could be done to improve the status of black people in America and the condition of our cities, Cox and his fellow commissioners conclude with a set of idealistic hopes on the way universities should be rather than what should be done.

Such an injunction was temporarily granted so that the arguments could be heard, but the federal judges ultimately could find no legal basis for stepping in to block what is, after all, a state criminal proceeding. As a result, Shaw must face a jury. Perhaps as important, so must Garrison...
