Goldwater would have nuked Vietnam, which is why he lost the election.

Re: The next move by conservatives (long)
Goldwater used the phrase "tactical nuclear weapons" in one campaign speech. His point was that in a war, the US should not be unwilling to consider using tac nukes. I agree with that concept, though I disagreed with the effectiveness in doing so in Vietnam. Never the less, I wasn't yet old enough to vote, so I didn't have the opportunity to vote for Barry.
He lost the election because most people thought he'd escalate the war and LBJ wouldn't. History shows they were at least half wrong. |
