Judge the Measure. More calmly, Kennedy stated that he had in fact felt "for many years" that it would be a "mistake" for the U.S. Government to advocate birth control in other countries. "We have to be very careful how we give advice on this subject," said he, noting that the U.S. has never urged birth control at home or in Western Europe. "Accordingly, I think it would be the greatest psychological mistake for us to appear to advocate limitation of the black, or brown, or yellow peoples whose population is increasing no faster than in the United States...
...Program. Obviously enjoying the controversy he had provoked, Bishop Pike remarked blandly: "The asking of [my] question does not militate against any particular Roman Catholic candidate who, as an American citizen, and hence not subject to ecclesiastical force, can disavow the policy which the hierarchy of his church has proclaimed."

Monty told reporters he found it "very curious" that the U.S. had voted to condemn apartheid, because "it has much the same racial setup inside its own borders." Warming to a favorite subject, Monty added that the trouble with Americans is that, instead of furnishing "sure leadership" to the West, they go around the world saying, "What good guys we are."
