    Asked about the Vietnam War Richard Nixon says that he sees no immediate settlement. He thinks it is important that the USA continues in its “strong policy in Vietnam” and maintains a military presence. He agrees with the goals of President Johnson’s policies in Vietnam and with the steps that have been taken so far to stop aggression.
    When questioned about his future presidential ambitions, Richard Nixon says he is keen to work for the success of Republican candidates in November.
    I am a Republican. As a Republican and a member of the Loyal Opposition, I will work as vigorously for the election of Republicans to the Congress, as President Johnston when he was a Senator worked for the election of Democrats when we were in office.
