An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.

Federation of College Republicans. Now that you can see more clearly, we hope that you will join President Nixon In working for a full generation of peace." The bi-partisan "Dump Nixon" rally sponsored by Citizens for Alternatives Now, drew speakers and entertainers from all over the country including three prospective presidential candidates. Sen. Edmund S. Muskle, D-Malne, told blanketed, shivering crowds, "We are here to challenge policies, not person- alities — to seek solutions, not scape- goats." Rep. Paul N. McClosky, R-Cal., has pledged "to fight President Nixon in the primaries if Nixon doesn't move to end the war," and Sen. Birch Bayh, D-Ind. told the crown the nation 'can- not afford four more years of the bank- rupt policies of Richard Nixon." Muskle drew the loudest reaction from the crowd when he said that If America wants its problems solved, "then It must vote this administration out of office in 1972." He told the rain- soaked crowd that the single purpose of the rally was "to demonstrate our faith that the people's will can still determine our country's course." "We are here to restore moral leadership to our country," he said.

M.A., Department of History, Wright State University, 2006. Richard Nixon, Détente, and the Conservative Movement. This work examines the relationship between President Richard Nixon and the American conservative movement (1969-1974). Nixon’s anti-communist persona proved pivotal in winning the 1968 Republican Party’s and winning over the conservative base. The foreign policies orchestrated by Nixon and his National Security Advisor, Henry Kissinger, however, which sought to reduce tensions with China and the Soviet Union, infuriated the conservatives. In 1971-72, they suspended their support of the administration and even drafted their own candidate, the Ohio congressman John Ashbook, to challenge Nixon in the 1972 primary campaign. Although the Ashbrook campaign had a minimal impact, it set a precedent for conservative opposition to détente in the 1970s and 1980s.
