smith: mr. nixon, comment? mr. nixon; i of course disagree with senator kennedy insofar as his suggestions as to what should be gone on the farm program. he has made the suggestion that what we need is to move in the direction of more government controls, a suggestion that would also mean raising prices that the consumers pay for products and imposing on the farmers controls on acreage even far more than they have today. i think this is the wrong direction. i don't think this has worked in the past. i do not think it will work in the future. the program that i have advocated is one which departs from the present program that we have in this respect. it recognizes that the government has a responsibility to get the farmer out of the trouble he presently is in because the government got him into it. and that's the fundamental reason why we can't let the farmer go by himself at the present time. the farmer produced these surpluses because the government asked him to through legislation during the war. now that we have

mr. nixon: well, i would suggest, mr. vanocur, that uh if you know the president, that was probably a facetious remark. i would also suggest that insofar as his statement is concerned, that i think it would be improper for the president of the united states to disclose uh the instances in which members of his official family had made recommendations, as i have made them through the years to him, which he has accepted or rejected. the president has always maintained and very properly so that he is entitled to get what advice he wants from his cabinet and from his other advisers without disclosing that to anybody including as a matter of fact the congress. now, i can only say this. through the years i have sat in the national security council. i have been in the cabinet. i have met with the legislative leaders. i have met with the president when he made the great decisions with regard to lebanon, quemoy and matsu, other matters. the president has asked for my advice. i have given it. sometimes my advice has been taken. some

ford has vetoed, as i said earlier, four times as many bills per year as mr. nixon. mr. ford quite often puts forward a program just as a public relations stunt, and never tries to put it through the congress by working with the congress. i think under presidents nixon and eisenhower they passed about 60% to 75% of their legislation. this year mr. ford will not pass more than 26% of all the legislative proposals he puts forward. this is government by stalemate, and we've seen almost a complete breakdown in the proper relationship between the president, who represents this country, and the congress, who collectively also represent this country. we've had republican presidents before who've tried to run against a democratic congress. and i don't think it's the congress is mr. ford's opponent; but if if if he insists that that i be responsible for the democratic congress, of which i'm have not been a part, then i think it's only fair that he be responsible for the nixon administration in its entirety, of which he was a part. that, i think, is a good balance. but the point is

since mr nixon went in office. eight years ago. mr ford has has advocated since he's been in office over $5 billion in reductions for corporations. special interest groups. and the very wealthy to write their income. not from labor. but from investment coming back with $that million and creating a shoe factory. say new hampshire vermont. if a company takes money down the it lindbergh's and build a shoe factory they don't have to pay taxes on the money. another thing is a system called disc which was originally designed opposed by mr nixon. to encourage export permit a company to create a dummy corporation. to export their products. and then not to pay the full amount of taxes on them. this cost our government about $1.4 billion a year. and when those rich corporations don't pay that tax. the average american taxpayer pays it for them. another one that this very important is the is a business to ducks and jet airplanes. first class travel. the fifty dollar martini lunch. there is a working person can't take advantage of that. but the

ford has vetoed, as i said earlier, four times as many bills per year as mr. nixon. mr. ford quite often puts forward a program just as a public relations stunt, and never tries to put it through the congress by working with the congress. i think under presidents for-- nixon and eisenhower they passed about 60 to 75 percent of their legislation. this year mr. ford will not pass more than 26 percent of all the legislative proposals he puts forward. this is government by stalemate, and we've seen almost a complete breakdown in the proper relationship between the president, who represents this country, and the congress, who collectively also represent this country. we've had republican presidents before who've tried to run against a democratic congress. and i don't think it's the congress is mr. ford's opponent; but if if -- if he insists that that i be responsible for the democratic congress, of which i'm -- have not been a part, then i think it's only fair that he be responsible for the nixon administration in its entirety, of which he was a part. that, i think, is a good

mr. nixon's alone, not his party's. >> i think nixon was resolute. now i am liberated.m going to be whom i wish to be. >> the united states has resumed full-scale bombing of north vietnam, including the hanoi haiphong area. the north vietnamese said american planes carried out heavy attacks around those cities tonight and that hanoi's armed forces shot down a large number of planes and captured several pilots. >> first lieutenant to be 52. >> nixon wanted the communists to think he was crazy in the hopes that that would drive them back to the bargaining table. >> a lot of the civilian areas were hit apparently. >> civilian areas must have been hit, and i don't want to say that it was not a very painful thing to have to do. >> when 8,500-pound bombs go off one plane, that's the closest thing to a nuclear weapon. >> the response to the christmas bombing was such an outrage. here is this small, third world country that the united states is bombing back to the stone age. >> the word from the president is military pressure will continue until a peace settlement is reached. >

>> mr. nixon, would you like to comment on this? vice president nixon: i have no comment. >> the next question. >> mr. vice president, your campaign stresses the value of your eight-year experience and the question arises as to whether that experience is as an participant or initiator of policymaking. could you tell us please specifically what major proposals you have made in the last eight years that has been adopted by the administration? vice president nixon: it is difficult to cover them in 2 1/2 minutes. i suggest these proposals could be mentioned. first, after each of my foreign trips i have made recommendations that have been adopted. for example, after my first trip abroad, i strongly recommended that we increase our exchange programs particularly as it relates to exchange of person of leaders in the labor field and in the information field. after my trip to south america, i made recommendations that a separate intraamerica embassy be set up which the south american nations would like much better than to participate in the l

. >> with that vote, mr. nixon the first president in more than a century and only the second in all of our history to confront removal from office through the only means provided in the constitution, impeachment. >> i stood by nixon and felt he should remain in office, but then we discovered the tape of june 23rd. this was fatal. >> good evening. president nixon stunned the country today by admitting he held back evidence from the house judiciary committee, keeping it a secret from his lawyers and not disclosing it in public statements. mr. nixon issued transcripts of three recorded conversations he had with h.r. halderman on june 23rd, 1972, six days after the burglars were caught in the watergate. >> you open that scab and there's a hell of a lot of things that we just feel that this would be detrimental to have this thing go any further. >> the facts came out. yes, the president himself, not only was he involved in this but he directed this criminal operation. >> they should call the fbi and n. and say that we

garland, mr. nixon, i would say look, we're going to beat him on the issues. to have a stronger issue component than he does because, as you rightly pointed out, mr. nixon, if you're going it hitlerize trump you make him sympathetic. >> it was widely reported very early in the clinton campaign that the obama people were saying, look, you need a message, you need to get on a message the message that donald trump is a bad guy, to the people who see donald trump as evil or bigot or whatever the case may be, they already feel like that. you are not going -- you tonight need to change those people's minds. but what you do need to do is have a message to the independents, a message to people who are concerned about the issue of jobs. and the clinton campaign is in a tail spin and i think the only way they get out of it is with a message but they are not moving that direction unfortunately right now. >> all right. ms. cohen, are you surprised "the washington post is engaging in this kind of stuff? i am. are you? >> no, i'm not. i think they are left-leaning. they are

kennedy. >> mr. nixondential. >> i want people to start to look to america. >> nixon looks nervous, looks anxious. his eyes are darting about. he keeps looking at kennedy. what's kennedy up to? he's sweating. he's uneasy. it's the exact opposite of the image he's supposed to project. >> the things that senator kennedy has said many of us can agree with. >> and again and again the vice president would say, i agree with senator kennedy. >> and i subscribe completely to the spirit that senator kennedy has expressed tonight. >> and it made him look like basically second fiddle. >> and the fact is television sees it all. >> nixon's supporters are cringing and kennedy's aides are gloating. mayor daley of chicago says nixon looks embalmed. >> mr. nixon, would you like to comment on that statement? >> i have no comment. >> reporter joe alsip says that nixon looks like a suspect in a statutory rape case. nixon's own running mate, henry cabot lodge, says we've lost. >> tv polls show kennedy wins the debate. but radi

mr. nixon comes out of the republican party. it is a fact that through most of these last 25 years, republican leadership has opposed federal aid for education, medical care for the aged, development of the tennessee valley, development of our natural resources. i think mr. neck's and is an effective leader of his party. isope -- i think mr. nixon an effective leader of his party. the question is, which partied we want to leave united states? announcer: watch the entire debate at 10:00 a.m. eastern time sunday on our weekly series, road to the white house rewinds. american history tv, only on c-span3. these smithsonian national museum of african american history and culture opened its doors for the first time today. american history tv was live from the national mall for the 10:00 a.m. opening ceremony. speakers included president obama, former president george w. bush, and founding museum director lonnie bunch. this is american history tv, only on c-span3.

nixon's enemies lest. these were the kind of journalists with establishment journals like "newsweek" and the "washington post," "the new york times," rather, in mr. weiner's case. evan went to phillips academy and harvard and the grandson of man who ran six times for president as socialist, norman thomas help was not nixon's kind of guy and yet he writes a very compassionate biography, and mr. weiner went to columbia university and columbia school of journalism and "the new york times" was almost as much the "washington post," real antagonist of mr. nixon, at least in nixon's point of view. to my argument is just read these books together. one concentrates much more on specific events, like the war in vietnam, chile, the detente, dealings with china and russia, mr. weiner's book, and it very well complimented by evan's study of what it was really like to be richard nixon, evan thomas' book takes the entire life of mr. nixon, birth through the full stenof this life and offers a great deal of insight of him as a father, as husband,o as a man who was just always striving, whereas tim weiner's book tends to capture the way he was truly a raging inso

mr. nixon and mr. kissinger used to tell us that instead of morality, we had to worry in the world about living with and letting live all kinds of governments that we really don't like. north and south korean dictators, chilean fascists, chinese communists, iranian members and so on. they said the only way to get by in a wicked world was to treat others on the basis of how they treated us and not how they , treated their own people. recently, we seemed to have taken a different tack. we've seemed to have decided it is part of our business to tell the rhodesians, for instance, that the way they're treating their own black people is wrong and they've got to change their government and we've put , pressure on them. we were rather liberal in our advice to the italians as to how to vote. is this a new ford foreign policy in the making? can we expect that you are now going to turn to south africa and force them to change their , governments, to intervene in similar ways to end the bloodshed, as you called it

my question, do you think the combination of the two balanced out nixon's view? mr. clapper: well, that is probably a take-home question. [laughter] mr. clapper: i really cannot say whether, how much that influenced the president at the time. it did seem to me, and moore of a contemporary observation, that we did get awfully deep into facts and stats, body count, how many viet cong, north vietnamese were killed, how many were flown, how many bombs were dropped? that is what general westmore thought was important at the time. i cannot say to what extent the preoccupation with details, numbers, statistics had a vary on the president. i guess it did, but i cannot answer that specifically. mr. brennan: many times jim and i found ourselves in the white house room and were pummeled with questions about the situation. we would look back-and-forth at each other, who has the answer and who takes this is a take-home answer. mr. clapper: just like we are doing now. [laughter] mr. brennan: the intelligence community is a repository for those facts. policymakers trying to figure

i was just watching the nixon candidate debates and the reagan debates, there was such respect, they said the word, "i respect you mright now instead of a debate between two intelligent and prepared politicians, it is really a match between hawk culligan and bob fisher. and it is a mismatched. i am fascinated to see how it is going to go tonight but there is only one person that i can tell that's prepared to talk about issues in substance fashion. the other one, has to resort to a smashing a chair over someone else's head otherwise, they're going to lose. >> you talk a lot about young people and i know you are trying to reach young voters when you were out over the weekend. i heard you say that you are not sure they are not as excited about hillary clinton as you thought they would be. is that what you are hearing? >> it is what i am hearing when i read the pulse. i don't experience that when i am out there because there is a lot of enthusiasm and excitement. the polulse tightening is creatg more. now, these voting age kids, of 18 or 19, and millenials, and why i bring that up because that was not that exciting to s

mr. deutch: and richard nixon released his returns while being audited under the i.r.s. does the i.r.s. -- let me ask another question. would releasing the person's tax return during the audit in any way impact that pending audit of the return? commissioner koskinen: the release itself wouldn't. the concerns sometimes by taxpayers is when the information is public there may be more information that will be discovered or provided. the release itself. toich deutsche we understand that's a concern. does the i.r.s. send a letter to a person informing him that he's been audited by the i.r.s.? commissioner koskinen: yes. in other words, in fact, as i tell people with the phone scams, you are not hearing from us. we send you a letter. mr. deutch: commissioner koskinen, is there any law or regulation that prevents a person from publicly disclosing the letter from the i.r.s. that tells them that they are being audited? commissioner koskinen: there's no restriction by the i.r.s. mr. deutch: releasing tax returns, as we've just been discussing, provides transparency. it's being rep

nixon. he entered the first debate down 11 points. in the first debate, mr.ord turned in a pretty solid performance and he closed the gap in that race. unfortunately for president ford, he made a major gaffe in the second debate about soviet influence in eastern europe. that first debate put him back in play. i remember this debate well, 1992 the reform party candidate ross perot, the country was starting to come back. ross perot was at 10% coming in. he went up to 15%. bill clinton went on to win the presidency but george h.w. bush never quite recovered there. we all remember this back in 2000, the year of the recount. al gore came in as the sitting vice president leading in the rate. the first debate, this was the eye rolls and the sighs, the split roll we'll be watching tonight. george w. push took the lead in that race and kept the lead. and in 2012, president obama was a favored. he came in with a big healthy lead, but remember four years ago that first debate? this guy didn't seem like he wanted to be there. he didn't show up, he was distrrd. governor r
