He stepped through Nixon and Donald Segretti's techniques, explaining these are not a proper way to run a campaign, more in the vein of know your enemy. All too often students would sidetrack the lectures with topical questions. He felt Nixon's character flaws set the stage for the anti-war protests, and how they played out.Berniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17157600812959885192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-54069966080768524172015-07-07T20:34:21.589-05:002015-07-07T20:34:21.589-05:00Yes you do.

Back in 1970 four students were killed by National Guardsmen at Ohio's Kent State College. It seems to me a strange coincidence that in a college where Jewish students are a minority, three of the four fatalities were Jewish students, not participating in the protest, but on their way to the next class.Berniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17157600812959885192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-73387143162847469192015-07-07T13:14:05.867-05:002015-07-07T13:14:05.867-05:00"Sorry" would be overstating the case.

I guess they are still mad the fed. govt had to teach them lessons the hard way in the Civil War days and in the 50's and 60's Civil rights era. Nor do they ever seem to admit to being in the wrong or to see why Federal power is needed. I've heard of what they were writing a few months back on those tea party or other conservative sites. And know of some northerners who moved there, who often scarcely can't say a liberal word if they want their neighbors to be friendly. I knew one older southerner personally who said she was in shock when she actually had to sit behind a black person on a bus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
