    Nixon Legacy Forum Transcript: The Week That Changed the World Part I October 13, 2010 University of Southern California Los Angeles, CA Panelists: Colonel Jack Brennan, Marine Corps Aide to the President Dwight Chapin, Deputy Special Assistant to the President and Acting Chief of Protocol during President Nixon's 1972 trip to China Larry Higby, Assistant Chief-of-Staff to the President Clayton Dube (Moderator), Associate Director of the USC U.S.-China Institute Clayton Dube: Hi. My name is Clayton Dube, and it's my privilege to be from on the USC U.S.-China Institute. And it's a big week here at USC. On Friday, we are going to be inaugurating C.L. “Max” Nikias as the 11th president of the university. While he was provost, Max Nikias established the USC U.S.-China Institute, expressly to focus on the U.S.-China relationship in all its dimensions, how it was changing, why it mattered, and to look at critical trends in contemporary China. This focus on China remains a strategic priority here at USC. Unfortunately, President Nikias has another commitment and can't be with us today, but he asked that I extend to you his warmest of welcomes. And it's of course my pleasure to do just that. Thank you all for coming to today's symposium. We're going to be looking back at what went into making “the week that changed the world,” that week in February 1972 when President Nixon traveled to China. We are extremely fortunate to have a distinguished panel to speak on that subject.

    2007-10-30-FRO Sir David Frost Interview Transcription Page 1 of 10 October 30, 2007 Timothy Naftali My name is Tim Naftali and I'm Director of the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum. It's October 30, 2007. We're in Washington, DC, and I have the privilege and honor to be interviewing Sir David Frost for our Oral History Program. Sir David, thank you for joining us. David Frost It's a pleasure to be with you. Pleasure, Tim. Timothy Naftali Sir David, please tell us about your meeting with Jack Brennan, who was President Nixon's, former President Nixon's chief of staff when you were discussing the nature of the interview. David Frost Well, there were one or two of those. Which one were you thinking of? Timothy Naftali I was thinking of the one where you talk about arithmetics. David Frost Arithmetic? Timothy Naftali Yeah. David Frost Yes, this was very tense. We were afraid that they were trying to delay things beyond a possible point to an impossible point and so pressing for them to move. They were worried about our editing and all of that sort of thing. And defending Nixon, Jack Brennan said, "Listen, 60 percent of what that man did was great, was really good. Thirty percent may not have been good, but he did not realize that." Well, mathematicians watching us now, this moment in history, will realize that that left 10 percent, which were not good and he must have realized they were not good or were wrong or whatever.
