I think the new generations in America, the America's youth, no longer care about Vietnam. They don't want to hear any more about it.

Practice rather than preach. Make of your life an affirmation, defined by your ideals, not the negation of others. Dare to the level of your capability then go beyond to a higher level.

I started out as a Cold Warrior, even my last years in grade school.

You know, it's very clear, as one looks back on history again of the Cold War that, following the crisis in Cuba, following the Khrushchev - beating down of Jack Kennedy in Vienna, that President Kennedy believed that we had to join the battle for the Third World, and the next crisis that developed in that regards was Vietnam.

You have to look at the history of the Middle East in particular. It has been one of failure and frustration, of feudalism and tribalism.

Propaganda was an important arm of the Soviet diplomacy, very important.

As I look back at the span of the Cold War in those early days, in the '50s, for example, there was a great deal of Soviet propaganda here in the United States, but it was clumsy, and it was anchored to a lot of ideological support in certain circles in America itself.
