this man is bernard fall at sixteen he was a guerilla fighter with the french monte twice wounded at twenty he worked on the nuremberg war crimes trials at twenty six he was with the french and vietnam researching firsthand for his phd at forty he had written seven books and over two hundred articles on vietnam he was an expert to lecture to military colleges spoke before congressional committees and published in three languages a political science professor with love the camaraderie of soldiers a man whose instinct for the facts made him carry a tape recorder into combat a humanitarian who studied war in search for peace in this search he died

before it is too late in that case whatever happened to me would not have happened in vain and i know that you'll be thinking of me as i will think of you no matter where i will be my husband's both and wrote fearlessly regardless of opposition or threats of persecution because he believe that it is more important than ever not to succumb to the temptation of the easy way out no matter how difficult the trail of the troops are how heavy the burden of the right he can't be killed they're wearing nineteen sixty seven spinner paul

everything is lost sight of the little thyme all women regardless of four five other counterinsurgency operations they're being made and look at the vietcong and look at the audio theater and it was like the cards and look at the military aspect of care act that are simply out of the show the north the means of achieving a politically this is an operation if i ever tried to play it thank you

but you have to prepare now the show starts with one fifth of the population of the population felt they were the infiltrator harvard economist the rule of confidence and if you want the fact is that vietnam has been left foot ten years of all it's very real social economic problems on the planet that is what makes for insurgents i think so if he got two percent of the landlords on forty five percent of the lion you got yourself a problem even about have with the sea we've got to get into the population areas it's

bleak week we can we can it's b it's b it's been is by

no one side the great american art directed family members and the like others are fighting jews from the question on a lot of people have moved in their decision themselves leave the country which to live close to the american marine battalions are secure at a recent what to get for having left their alliance and unable to farm says that the army doesn't trust the people that he doesn't just doesn't

understand that he can't tell the difference between the state and the people are on the side of the government isn't that right they're doing well issue it's november that six dc snipers moved in and shout

destruction in the family it's destroying business drawing out our people and how known bb he could do airplanes on more on weapons they destroyed a month in the season is now completely destroyed that the b fifty two bombs on my people in buttoned fifteen families left because the other based on i'm coming now and a catholic country and the same as it is what will happen the same as to my friends paula when

people try and make it many of the people by the people and i think if people believe that if the political will reply and i think at least for an economy years before my mother was you know fifth but economists speak with an accomplished fifty eighth in other yemeni people white people they'd

reminds you do that once and eighty two and it makes you live on this is david ayer me me now

thank you the bombing of its video showing the plowing of the poppy crop of their head that was so you're dealing with a

rubio that is due to publish or your we just don't know whether we can in the midst of these worlds money that's on our side is that a crime ms banks yes when the war militarily people figure of two point five million men is

not excluded on straight military pact everybody laughed handsome wall and said that it would take a million americans are think people aren't laughing no more iss precisely the whole tragedy but it takes enormous amount of troops or egypt the population support and publisher won't support you until it's been shown to win you get a lot of population obviously this was a permit before that and massive me in nashville there's no point trying to perceive massive fire got into a lot of the scenes in exchange between the van hollen

doesn't ideology or motivation at that because large role and posture that you're forget you have an insurgency basically what has the credibility typically yeah i would

say in short range terms is in the machiavellian most machiavellian interest of the united states to deal of one level or another director with abc was eventually for the very good reason for the season other people who are most exposed and therefore most subject to pressure the fact is the vietcong has shown in the past some very clear differences of new android n robson became quite enough to live only if i want to be the nominee or prevent of the variables that we are binding until further notice obviously worried that when we went in it from you know the hiv or disobey that flow up all

the bombing or not but what i feel mr dionne right you're welcome dave davies we are not reliable we have a problem

he's been visible why a little bit later of equality nice

nice it is no no still to come on the field to my report from the

deal to close and edward p morgan a british broadcasting corporation look at american political campaign mr shortz ooh others now i

know the record of the deal achieved correspondent edward p morgan and when the show the nation exactly where we stand a big old richard nixon nix tuesday will do that the preceding was a paid political announcement this is harry belafonte this is myrna loy there's a parliament speaking the nation is listening to what new hampshire voters are saying on march twelve both gene mccarthy for president a big political announcement the communists in vietnam are watching the new hampshire primaries a big political announcement don't vote for fuzzy thinking and surrendered a patron and support are fighting there something spooky is echoing through the new hampshire primary campaign a generation ago

wisconsin senator joe mccarthy attack the democratic administration and harry truman were devastating ruthlessness as being soft on condoms last wednesday minnesota senator eugene mccarthy charge that his own fellow democrats ironically were apply mccarthyism to him he referred to those squad announcement saturating the airwaves are urging a write in for president johnson next tuesday with the admonition that the communists and vietnam are watching and they should not be encouraged viable for fuzzy thinking and surrender an unmistakable allusion to mccarthy's challenge for the administration to negotiate an end so these are the smear tactics of mccarthyism says eugene mccarthy part of the same shameful disruptive attempts that have been made to frighten this country with communism for twenty years other where echoes of the past rise from the republican camp the new nixon is reaching back to nineteen sixty four all issues turning inside out some which john f kennedy used against him and aiming them at lyndon johnson kennedy

accuse the eisenhower administration of allowing the russians to head for nuclear superiority viacom or so we're in new hampshire now makes and declares of the johnson administration has allowed the power balance which was seven to one of our favourite left office reflect that to the world he doesn't explain his figures any more than kennedy did eight years ago candidate kennedy cited polls prove that america's breastfeed and credibility at hit a new low under the republicans in the hampton american legion hall last tuesday nights in pride that for the first time in history a president of the united states can travel abroad or to any major us city without fear of possible demonstrations in nineteen sixty let's get this country moving again with jfk is battle cry nixon thinks americans now want to travel a new road to a new era of progress he also pledges to end the war and win the peace in vietnam safely on the thing specifics only enough not only specifics but candidates are missing in new hampshire romney has gone maybe even forgotten rockefeller

shadow was reflected in a wispy write in campaign though his candidacy less than five months after he stated i do not want to be president seems to be finally assuming full substance president johnson's name is not even on the new hampshire about though his presence is felt too heavily some sources say by serial number cards circulated to eighty nine thousand registered democrats requesting them to go out of their way to pledge their loyalty to lbj all these things are perhaps par for the course in practical politics but the cumulative effect of new hampshire is the kind of spooky charade of reality nobody seems really to be coming to grips with the two great bone pressing issues of the time a racial conflict at home and the war in vietnam there may be an exception and senator mccarthy or more precisely in his followers after watching his low key campaign that keen observer of politics theodore h white observe that he appeared to be running more for sainthood and the presidents and the party's generally chaotic wake are fun such desperate supporters is actor paul newman and the future

prize winning poet robert lowell and most of all hundreds upon hundreds of college graduates today it's every weekend since january from as far away as stanford university they've poured into new hampshire with sleeping bags and that fact the volunteer for mccracken at their storefront headquarters in concord the state capital that old theodore white and the they even got their hair shave their beards and silver miniskirts to be neat and clean for gene in their dedicated attempts to win over the natives they are starry eyed but deeply concerned they dismiss even robert kennedy now as old guard they are passionately anti war and anti establishment but then neither burning draft cards or rioting in the ghetto it's the most significant characteristic is a commitment to change through orderly procedure is not violent protests suspicious of the political system there nevertheless giving it by working within it another try and this old college try they seem to be signaling to society should not be ignored which brings me to a personal point of view some players a political war games are so impressed with indicated impact of the

student volunteers for eugene mccarthy an unhappy electorate that they are funneling the following scenario as a possible script for lyndon johnson's strategy come convention time in august senator hubert humphrey to the un to replace ambassador arthur loeber replace humphrey was senator mccarthy as a vice presidential candidate stop the bombing of north vietnam start negotiations with the communist end the war and what's the republicans try to prevent another johnson landslide there are a couple of flaws in the ointment of this intriguing logic the president has show no hint of preparing to de escalate the war for the more that these main strip searches of his lies with the dissidents so deeply disenchanted with the cynicism of power pop that strength would surely evaporate if the senator agreed to play bonnie to the president's clyde donna johnson a crappy take no citizen in his right mind in such can still be found in this mad world would argue that ideals are going to decide the nineteen sixty eight presidential elections still it would be refreshing if some candidate were vainglorious

enough the gamble a bit more on principle then on private jets his supporters especially the young ones i knew that senator mccarthy is that matter what if ultimately he emerges clearly as such it may be due more to the chemistry of youthful and patients with political flat little and double talk working on him but on any charisma of committed look at the leadership working on them in any case it's hard to recall a national campaign in which more rational calm but concern dialogue was more urgently need the set is the country is with a contradiction of affluence and poverty pride and prejudice whole and this where it's equally hard to recall a period in american history when the public was more distrustful or less inspired by its leaders or would be leverage a margin than the un an actionable a candidate committed to loops in hopes of checking this legally rosen of faith in the republic ladies and gentleman this mythical man might say if any of you think i and the political messiah to lead you out

of our popular wilderness please run do not walk to the nearest exit for you are more not been headed off i don't believe in the dignity of man i also believe that fear or ignorance breeden blind prejudice or the curdling of just hopes and make it more savage than the beats i do not believe that black power white power or firepower is a sound doctrine of success i seriously doubt that republicans democrats communists robert welch or even george wallace as the answer to argue and i suggest that if we honestly applied who common sense to them the results might be interesting and cool all this is wild fantasy of course but how much more unbelievable than the noises of the current campaign that the somewhat buffeted shape of this observers point of view from the united states panorama reports on the man and the issues at the start of the nineteen sixty eight

presidential contest that good eating if you're wondering what that sequences or bottom line and let me explain my name's robin day from the bbc in london you've just seen the opening sequence disavow weekly program panorama that britain's best known public affairs television program goes up to fifty minutes later talk every monday night and tomorrow's edition comes entirely from the united states live by satellite on tape and on film the occasion for this all american edition is the climax of the new hampshire primary campaign and the cutting up of the nineteen sixty eight presidential

contest will report on that primary campaign and on the candidates declared all otherwise and on the issues which confront the american people in nineteen sixty eight the vietnam war and the threat of more disorder in america's own cities ore tonight at the invitation of bpl we show you out of the panorama program which bbc viewers will see in britain tomorrow night has our report on the new hampshire primary campaign reporter is my canadian colleague robert macneil formerly of nbc current fate with the bbc the new hampshire with the fifth that everything is computerized model statistics on new hampshire's to voters pentagon statistics on vietnam casualties only three quarters of a million people live in the entire state ninety four of their sons have died in vietnam

a crossover exhortation and the beauty of new hampshire inspired a major robert frost the most restful state he called it in the fall he could find the mountains aren't quite high enough americans you ache for rural purity and simplicity are often very moved by new hampshire emotion has carried over into political life and his freshly aroused every presidential election year the landscape is symbolized by fine houses built before new hampshire became the first british colony to declare it's independence through a visitor from england the only thing new about the place names is there for were living arrangement to maintain every four years america rediscovered new hampshire it happens that the state is the first to hold its primary election to let voters say which candidates they prefer to see running for president later in the year this year new hampshire as america's first important opportunity to express politically

its conscience on the up tuesday's vote amounts to a referendum on the war he measures not all snow and miles of virgin forest but other americans resisting forgetting that the state has long been heavily industrialized he manchester the biggest city as nineteenth century industrial employer it's as ugly as any in england now modern electronic industry has moved him the task of the politicians is to reach these people are all contemporary means hundreds of radio advertisement for being broadcast every day in the state as the campaign ends the airwaves are saturated with the sound of politics let's back to one man who was better prepared for the presidency than any other challenger in history nixon's the one

all right dollar is only one job related report a year ago before prozac lot for a large block of all i think the concern of nixon's the one nixon's the one to result in people losing things happen of course richard nixon richard nixon knows his way around the world like some people know their way around the block was the one man we need in these troubled dangerous to teach in one

of these it's big the point it can be yours you know the president has been re enter the refurbished richard nixon's successful debater with crystal unsuccessfully with kennedy

loved by the republican middle write despised by the left for an early career founded on red nixon has capitalized on a vacuum at the center of republican party leadership years of party loyalty have already given him the best chance of being the republican to challenge president johnson in november he is temperamentally hawkish on vietnam but they'll have shaved a lot from the grim message that have passed in the nineteen sixty election and beyond is comparable to hand and smiles the issues he discusses the issues and i feel it is dance this is the one from a situation we just can't have any kind of leadership that is in the past i say that as i read the issue that was before us is that here it is again lyndon johnson in speeches across queensland will we say to the american people begin on november this is democracy i say to my friends that when the strongest nation in the world to

be tied up for four years in the war yet now without the end in sight when the richest nation in the world can't manage its only copy when a nation with the greatest traditional role of lawyers for our president lawlessness and the first time in the history of our country the president of the united states cannot travel abroad or to any major city in this country without their law school demonstration it's time for new leadership in the united states of america at just great by letter of my decision to withdraw the catalan president as president of the united states it's clearly made that my candidacy is now won the wide acceptance with a lag and file republicans liable to achieve

george romney the mormon businessman who was governor of michigan was the only republican openly running against nixon in new hampshire this sudden withdrawal of the liberal wing of the republican party without a champion in the field but it also made it harder for nixon was left to campaign against the empty new hampshire air to demonstrate his popularity all right doing the developer

and he it was just very sad now for months the polls have shown nelson rockefeller to be the republicans' most potent threat to lyndon johnson but the millionaire governor of new york as persistent refused to enter the race he said he'd tried twice for the nomination and the party had found him too liberal he had no stomach to try again now almost no one believes he does not want it since romney's withdrawal has moved dramatically into the fray to make her new hampshire a major question about him is his attitude to vietnam you refused for two years to dispose of

wishful liberals are expected to be damage there is growing pressure for a declaration i do wish i had the craziest is authorized to play whether or not he wants to run i think it does and i don't like this attitude of not being straightforward insel in favor of nixon as i said the comments that might be a factor i perform is to get them to feel that well mr rockefeller his playing recalling and france as good politics but i like the straightforward man who's going to tell you how he feels so that you know and that meant in

fact publicly opposed by rockefeller a small group of new hampshire's supporters were running a tiny under financed campaign forum they were urging new hampshire voters to write rockefellers name on their ballots rockefeller staff desperate to protect him as long as possible from the knives of the republican conservatives felt these views alex might hurt him a small rockefeller right and mike give people the impression that nixon was bound to win at the union in eagle competition but in the last few days of the campaign rockefeller appeared to be bowing to the pressure points to the states and campaign he's our senator eugene mccarthy is the one who brought the vietnam issue into a political focus in new hampshire it is made all other matters in the elections in irrelevant mccarthy a liberal democrat has chosen the lonely road of

challenging an incumbent president for his party's nomination because he is appalled by the war the campaigning of his former professor is low key and at first the regular democrats dismissed him now they fear he may win a substantial vote and greatly embarrassed the white house the president's people accuse him of latinos and surrender mccarthy says johnson has no monopoly on patriotism reminds me almost am still a man of action is not this is still really on your side but the war would not become an american war that we are and i think that there are two or three steps that one can take now the first thing is we have to be willing to negotiate a coalition government in south vietnam that we're not willing

to agree to a coalition government which is what the fight is about but there's no point talking about negotiations i think that's the first poem then falling there korea is necessary to get to that point do you stop the bombing but it was soft it and they don't want to and key say we will agree to recall is that i think we simply say we're going to reduce our commitment in south vietnam and you can take on the fighting he's been review the re

create president johnson and undo most recent war with the st louis died in those polls is on the issues a bit more in the way of president johnson is a man who is sticking to his eye this is by the republican party and while i don't particularly feel it necessary to criticize johnson i do feel that will basically the decisions that our citizens and in recent years those injuries i was like i felt it really seeming to find out how you do in the press carson you

know if you've got a good response for many signatures president johnson has stayed out of the primary races but is cooperating in new hampshire with a slick campaigned about voters right in his name democrats are being asked to give written pledges of support in some quarters could you do it as soon as possible please the reason for this is that we are sending them to the white house as soon as they do come in and we would appreciate it very much the pledge current system operated by volunteers and their jaunt in a small office as antagonized many democrats senator mccarthy says it violates the sanctity of the secret ballot and there are fears that it might backfire and johnson only a third of the guard sent out have been returned but johnson people to have focused on vietnam portraying the president very deliberately as a stirring and smiling man inflexible and is nearly equal to the task of

job hospital and third class ronald james keller united states navy killed vietnam veteran i'm buried exeter new hampshire on march second his widow is seventeen she has a baby ten months he was already easy solution in terms of ending this war i don't tell you what we can do is simply allow because while the end of the war he would lose the least it basically declared authority

the communists in vietnam are watching the new hampshire primaries they're watching to see if we here at home have the same determination is our soldiers navy men and marines were fighting in vietnam don't vote for fuzzy thinking and surrender support our fighting men give them the encouragement they deserve it back up their commander in chief by writing in the name of president johnson on your ballot in the new hampshire presidential primary on tuesday hp the report you have just seen will be televised via satellite by the bbc tomorrow night it was produced by the reporters and film crews of bbc and phoebe all has shown that in order to give audiences some idea of how british newsman view the political climate in the united states at this time florida's governor recently being broken

what's wrong with me you are and jurassic

schoolchildren are enjoying some unscheduled holidays as a result of more than one hundred teacher walkouts and strikes this year most of the strikes were caused by demands for teacher power and more money for salaries and facilities thats where teachers voted just hours ago and their ten day strike that strikes a threat and in other cities and teachers in oklahoma south dakota indiana idaho mississippi and colorado are considering statewide actions which could include strikes as the cost of education of surpassed the ability of local communities to pay for it features have begun to put pressure on state governments the situation was dramatized in florida where nearly half the money for local schools comes from state a republican governor claude kirk's veto of a school a bill last year led to a strike threat and a special session of the legislature last january i'm happy with the education tax bill that emerged a bill that increased aid but lord local tax revenues for education the teachers they to the nation's first statewide strike by resigning on mass with total chaos imminent governor kirk finally allowed that tax bill

to become law last week and the strikes in over but the crisis may not be over in fact this afternoon the florida education association asked teachers to stay away tomorrow were school boards have refused to rehire all striking teachers what many governors squad car promised no new taxes but great improvements in education intrigued by the magic of that alchemy and by kirk's well financed play for national attention at all decided to profile his ideas about government and the nation as part of this reporter was interviewed in miami this weekend by jack roberts the miami news and females martin classic do you think the public employee should have the right to unionize absolutely not to strike the word longleaf in the loan associations tied to the unions will realize that you that strike against the government which is the public public employee knows that that's the order of the day it is and is now our position using unionizing of

the union movement means anything without a last resort of strike fortunately that's it i think a good opportunity to exchange two i don't see a reason for a teacher and levy county to have to find out what his future holds by appealing to his union in washington i think that really destroyed says frieden we're right to work state here you know and i think it would be much better if these teacher groups were association bought the minute that association if that happens to be public employees strikes and attached a threat worse or intimidate this government than they can forget late because i'm not gonna talk on the magnum a strike against us because it is against the law and you were in government is ever intended course don't find it stops being government but we show that we were new

friend in time where our cars as a go in fact you look at the book the tv set broke anything we hope that we get enough compassion and leadership to show the people the importance of going back on a classroom at those who had left that minority that hitler had we give it up to them than the minority would conceivably been speaking for the majority yet utilities companies and california one of the truth i first began that you intended to break the union operates and three months ago on december fifteenth in a manner actually told me i'm the only other in fifty states has had the guts to break the teacher june you strike there was no strike that i would say that knowing that you ought to break the union at that time you remember that or they were acting very much like you know i was trying to

break it as a union in the concept of leading tourists try and get it back into the category of association i took an oath of office and i'd get a job if i hadn't done that i would feel it all the barbers who plays it there will be no new taxes during her an inspiration has said as though the ways that it would be a nun what did you feel well you get back to this early same process of government but i'm positive there were none and i stood my ground regular session special session special session when i was finally run over by a truck full of democrats i can't stand the way you know i don't pass the last year vcu a robot truck goes at the legislature the teachers the democratic vote we share teaches been rebuked on a jacket you know my commission on quality education produced the first total review of education's needs or florida

medical problem and probably the only one in the nation this week everyone is riding for cross pollination by the way in a new viewers i want it right in and get my office in tallahassee and i'll go for you l a commission on quality education before navy took office he promised to make florida first and education listed under the nineteen seventy five that day came later a new white labor on education which is not mention a couple of the important first in education a time certain it then later said by some reasonable they may nineteen seventy five years ago but florida which has the highest per capita income of the terms of the state is funneling lowest per capita expenditure on education wrong fall a set of figures your own surgery center of this set of figures right now talk today we have new law it started last night we're seventeen to the nation and per pupil spending and twelfth in the nation and

sour for teachers now every teacher watching this who was gonna forgot a place for you come on down to catch would you just love to live and for all the time to each other happy birthday that it interesting because i think it was two days ago that you told teachers who did not want a return to work immediately shirley artistic work in one of the unfortunates exactly my point i just thought what type person i was talking to a tiger doesn't want to close shop a tight fit once a strong government that wants an orderly place where crime is not allowed to run rampant where government believes in taking care of the people those who want to come hear those on a close shop and one a strike i can name you a bunch of other choices would be possible if the democrats are more interested in education a new work as a builder and i'm absolutely not my gosh why you don't as well of republican minnesota needs the minority patient and a great legislature did

pass that will eventually billion of a teachers strike they passed some sort of build based on what i submitted from a quality education commission did thereby level best not to do anything and a lot of that had quality education commissioner special call you have zero zero zero you have that strike strike strike there you certainly been attracting a lot of national attention recently issued a dr martin says that you should always sound out for that will be was a microcosm as a solid word you to identify as a deal making a microcosm of governors a difference as you know king jr have this kind of closed shop we've been very interested in you over the past three months at least is you know uncharted your activity by means of the film profiles which you might be a nation watching with now politicians

headed back home or had to counteract the media public relations campaign aimed at restoring his image through that about hard working industrious why florida's governor has an image of a different sort the delights in controversy even has a plan for and one of those far flung speaking for this one to a lady's republican club in greenwich connecticut we asked turks agency intended to spell out his philosophy of controversy as he had in previous speeches the answer was yes actually it is very simple for me to begin my speed by you a simple phrase that style and he began by getting a simple

three step program for becoming a controversial governor like many of you know my years in the business world there's that is an investment banker in as president life insurance company that took me a few weeks discover the secret chased by politicians and that is how to be controversial now of course that winding this was too launch a genuine state wide war on crock the subset of course and many apple carts in far that had been commonly cared for over a period of generation step two of course was to redeem my campaign pledge to all the line on taxes and to veto a bill that would sharply increase that this call down the wrath of every special interest group in all of florida or step three is to marry a beautiful girl and that earns you an immediate reputation for being reckless and their event is one and here's then hear about public office let me commend to you this current plan for in state controversy but let you warn you that the garden of

controversy must be continually called it otherwise nobody knows you're alive claude makes the garden of controversy with a personal brand of what he calls confrontation politics he brought it to bear on a bike our rally last summer for instance and effectively took the crowd away from militant leader wraparound why is very depressed with less success for tried the same technique than striking teachers two weeks ago he appeared at the teachers rally in miami and spent three in that hour is trying to lure them back to work by the sheer power of positive thinking it's big it's been

it's b oh amazing it is the teachers found kirk's persuasion resist them and that may be because they knew he spent the first three days of floridas school strike in california is western speaking tour of the latest in a year long series about a space trips seem part of a pattern aimed at attracting nationwide attention i've been crisscrossing the country in a learjet addressing himself to national issues

often the subject is fair and that they're not a candidate for vice president said you don't run a presidential candidate picks his vice president but i have also said today and saying you know that it's strange indeed while but it does because i happen to be from a solvent geographic state it is the eighth state in the nation's strange and devalued us being vice president in his office border from dayton ohio to manage can imagine that domenici and i was not my responsibility to determine how to write i can have some questions right and it's about time the press that as you will imagine the situation this is

true he now directs be this is saying that resignation of secretary mcnamara is enough to make one believe that washington is not totally that i called with is that on september thirtieth at little rock repeated often since that time twenty

five weeks between nice nice we went right up here of miami october twenty fifteen a submarine government built a thousand feet or christmas being of

oceanography was a very very major industry thought we attempted to do the governor's attempt to do with that boy was to prove to show that florida now has claimed but he chose a unique way to deal with the debt and that's one of the earliest pioneers qualities my judgment is that his lack of whether that's really make a valid criticism against going over the the government publicity coup lives when there was there was a young boy i love music they will call four dissenters did it kate kennedy ryan clark county health authorities we were fortunate and stay real with if in the opening step now

turkey's bid we can now forty years old and that inauguration he repeated campaign promises to make florida first an education and to allow no new taxes and wants to comfort and goldman who are incompatible when inauguration day brought the recently divorced of international attention of an entirely different sort at his inaugural ball he was accompanied by a stunning loss you would identify only as madame x she turned out to be born in germany

and divorced from a brazilian industrialist and the governor's intentions turned out to be syrians shortly afterward the two american palm beach ceremony witnessed among others by presidential hopeful richard nixon appeared later to be delayed honeymoon trip to america's native germany months after the turks returned from a honeymoon florida taxpayers discovered they had picked up the tab for the trip plane tickets were paid for by a state agency the commission develop current slow the state court nomination for newspapers until last week that the commission in one thousand six hundred million dollars have been in germany this fall is why they're denied knowing that not

very very important is that simple and i mean i oh yeah things because blank common i don't think

there is but yeah it's been just

as bad one of kirk's first the governor when you announced at his inauguration a private war on crime to head it shows the president of a private detective agency george clack of miami like the night is donating his services i have authorized them from romney is the manpower is needed in this than they now that also involved in all of this and other will be paid from farms volunteered by and just a private citizen who's made that this important and crucial fight will be led by may do without additional tax the bill for the war on crime was over half a million dog stand curt turn to

automobile dealers and other industry groups for the money to pay a solicitation of donations raised questions of propriety one of those who helped her with a dentist mcnamara of orlando president of the state automobile dealers association mcnamara personally contributed a thousand dollars to the war on crime it didn't involve the much on areas and explain these villages and this is basically the government was there and we throw all over the state in the navy is presentation to dealers and ate agave or they didn't you know it was a little it was on top of the sales tax two thousand dollars

well this isn't exactly right that meeting was no we arrived already broken up right when you finished when you say the governor's opponent of aristide promised to veto an increase in sales taxes i did not increase in the meeting was over distance five or six meters out of forty somethings and they are loyal a lot of years when you question now that could've been made with a few people that was taking a lot of conflict well there and then it was supposed to be a regular meeting of the automobile dealers association which precludes to be yet but we found out later that it was a meeting called by her to make his pitch to these one thousand dollars apiece to help him pay off is that

latin and unlike their regular meetings this was the internet universe even though we don't lie and we found out that when we happened to walk in activity and found the president of the state wide association telling the local leaders were the plan was to the industry that you're one of a thousand dollars each that good it was real and that could be a good friend you know anything about the type of people were injured and frankly no idea orleans are published are currently reason has released not long ago named number of people i dont know most people like that might be placing the governor or the government and its own kind of

obligation to the like on a typical doesn't bother me a bit because i know quote kirk and i would never from the suspect that any anybody a controlling scientists wouldn't turn a listener favorite strikes me as extremely straight laced individual amounts of strength and alleges ago you know the amount remaining on play is something they were two hundred and ninety thousand dollars maybe over any sizable amount of money but it i am confident receiving i'm not worried it'll remain unpaid that they will have to write off and they say lots more bar if i thought that was the case your business get your way for it it's this one to a reception in

washington is looking for a war on crime commissioners he talks here two former gop national chairman leonard paul nice nice nice thank you it was a big contributor you in line all

accompaniment in washington or close all of time to record i don't know why you have to wade ness maybe this all goes in the state treasury and outdoorsy that the flagler foundation gave its fifty thousand dollars but who is a contributor you in line always talking about my conversation in washington i was told to fire a foundation fifty thousand dow isn't it a fact that two weeks ago a man named adolf each roster of new york had been approached by all and you needed ten thousand i don't know why you act like that's a secret on and talking about him often right into it fifty thousand dollars was on those who has a flag or ten thousand was arrived under scrutiny mockery about rice sun to our representatives in the republican from palm beach county any young man in america with emily bob lutz who is now running for the united states congress i guarantee you'll be a fine american families would wish for us contribution our coral or know about you i am all boy it is a great

young man and his father is a dedicated american their kids enjoy as it wrong oddly enough to wanna fight you for crown i doubt that but there could have been no political motivation to them is darius says similar not the sons go up moreover like a heel the governor wanted those didn't become carriers when people help you pay will be reciprocated by the government and they love it you know good government is such a novelty here and some spears and they just too overwhelmed in terms of raising money for such a monumental effort isn't a half million dollar war on crime or allow that project yourself i'm around theirs played by republican party has not paid by the state now the state cannot as they fly an airplane about that the airplane that you saw the jet that's paid for by the republican party in contributions to cost a lot of money and that the terps and as a marine corps i
