  • Farewell, Mr. President Commemorating the 20Th Anniversary of the State Services for President Richard Nixon
    Farewell, Mr. President Commemorating the 20th Anniversary of the State Services for President Richard Nixon Nixon Library Announces Special Exhibit Commemorating the 20th Anniversary of the State Services for President Richard Nixon YORBA LINDA, CALIFORNIA - The Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum will commemorate President Nixon’s 1994 State Services with a new display of artifacts and dramatic photographs that tell the story of the events that lead to the passing of the 37th President and the formal memorial that followed in his honor at his Library in Yorba Linda. The services brought U.S. Presidents Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush and Clinton and their First Ladies to Yorba Linda, as well as hundreds of foreign and U.S. congressional leaders, thousands of admirers and millions of television viewers who watched from around the globe. “May the day of judging President Nixon on anything less than his entire life and career come to a close,” President Clinton said in a moving eulogy. Senator Bob Dole declared “the second half of the 20th century will be known as the age of Nixon.” Dr. Henry Kissinger commended the President as a statesman. “In the conduct of foreign policy, Richard Nixon was one of the seminal presidents.” Following the President’s passing on April 22, 1994, the Nixon Library immediately became the place for the public to pay tribute and remember his nearly 50 years of public service. More than 50,000 mourners waited in line for many hours to see the flag-draped casket that laid in repose in the museum, surrounded by a Marine Corps Joint Services Honor Guard.

  • 10 Aug 75 (2) Nixon (Television Intv Sold)
    10 Aug 75 (2) Nixon (television intv sold) - David Frost announces he has bought the exclusive rights to Nixon's "television memoirs," on behalf of what he calls an "international consortium of broadcasting organizations," none of whom he is willing to name. The amount of payment is not given. Arate. A , t-1 In a press release handed to reporters at a "hastily called news conference" in Beverly Hills, Irving Lazar is quoted as saying, "From among the many people wanting to interview the former President, Mr. Nixon chose David Frost because of Mr. Frost's unique and wide-ranging experience." A'' The contract provides for four 90-minute programs. Frost H says he plans to begin filming immediately and intends to film 20 separate intvs from which the four programs will be cut; at least one-quarter of the intvs will be devoted to discussion of Watergate. However, the intvs will not be broadcast until after the elections of Nov 76, because "the former President does not wish to intervene in the political debate of the next elections." Aa, Frost: "I should make it clear that the former President has neither requested nor has he received any editorial control- whether in terms Of the content or editing of the programs, the use of newsreel footage, or by way of prior knowledge of any of the questions. No subject, including [atergate, has been barred." NIT: "Asked whether ET. Nixon might be less than candid in discussing the scandal, Mr. Frost said: 'I sense that he's ready to start reflecting on his life and his achievements.

    A Symbol of Virtue Or A Strategy for Votes? John F. Kennedy’s Telephone Call to Coretta King And Its Social And Political Consequences Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Graduate Program in Comparative History Daniel Thomas Kryder, Advisor In Partial Fullfillment of the Requirements for Master’s Degree by Matthew E. Sullivan May, 2013 ABSTRACT A Symbol of Virtue Or A Strategy for Votes? John F. Kennedy’s Telephone Call to Coretta King And Its Social And Political Consequences A thesis presented to the Graduate Program in Comparative History Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Matt Sullivan This thesis examines the effect of a phone conversation between Kennedy and Coretta Scott King concerning Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr’s unfair imprisonment on the African- American community, and the social and political consequences that followed. By examining Kennedy’s relationship to civil rights before the call, the events surrounding the phone call itself, and the political strategy involved in getting the message of Kennedy’s call to African- Americans, this thesis will attempt to determine Kennedy’s motivations in making the call and if it had any effects. By looking at polling data and voting statistics among African-Americans, this thesis will determine to what extent they supported Kennedy in the election. A chart was developed that examined Kennedy’s motivation for making the call, ranging from instrumental to moral. The effect of the call ranges from a high effect, no effect at all, and a negative effect for Kennedy.

Phillips* INTRODUCTION In recent weeks, months, and even years, the phrase “war on drugs” has typically been accompanied by the term “failure.” Walter Cronkite, former anchorman of the CBS evening news, noted that it is “plain for all to see: the war on drugs is a failure.”1 Similarly, Joy Olson, executive director of the Washington Office on Latin America, a human rights organization promoting democracy, stated at a drug policy conference that she “think[s] U.S. drug policy has failed.”2 Likewise, Terry Nelson, a member of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, “considers the war on drugs to be the greatest public policy failure of all time.”3 New York Times columnist Nicholas D. Kristof asserts that, forty years after President Nixon declared the war on drugs, “it now appears that drugs have won.”4 Among the criticisms and complaints of United States drug policy are calls for reform by former international presidents,5 nonprofit organizations,6 judges,7 politicians,8 and scholars9 alike.

  • The Awakening of the Sleeping Giant: How Sino-American Rapprochement Triggered China's Meteoric Rise and What It Means Today
    The Awakening of the Sleeping Giant: How Sino-American Rapprochement Triggered China’s Meteoric Rise and What It Means Today Bobby Aiyer Junior Division Individual Documentary Process Paper Words: 500 Process Paper Selection For this year’s NHD, I chose a topic that I strongly connected with. Having lived in both China and the United States for extended periods of time, I chose to focus on the foundations of the Sino-American relationship. I wanted to place an emphasis on the Shanghai Communiqué and what that meant for the Sino-American relationship. However, after in-depth research, I realized that the Shanghai Communiqué was just the beginning of a series of exchanges, called rapprochement. I decided to widen the spectrum of my topic, explain the history behind normalization, and analyze the present-day impact of Nixon’s encounters. Research After finalizing my topic, I read Henry Kissinger’s book “On China” and learned about the details and motivations that led both the U.S. and China to re-establish relations. Then, I used history websites to understand the economic and political scenarios for both during the late 1960s, researched today’s Sino-American relationship, drew conclusions, and created a cause- and-effect timeline. After the State competition, I worked to address the negative aspects of the Sino-American relationship, balancing my documentary. I also contacted numerous experts specializing in the present-day status of Sino-American relations, including Prof. David Lampton of Johns Hopkins University. I conducted a vital interview with him that centered on the “today” of Sino-American encounters and exchanges.
