The daily coverage of the Vietnamese battlefield helped convince the American public that the carnage was not worth the candle.

Our country today is at a stage in our foreign policy similar to that crucial point in our nation's early history when our Constitution was produced in Philadelphia.

We know that no one should tell a woman she has to bear an unwanted child. We know that religious beliefs cannot define patriotism.

I'm a romanticist in many ways. I never get behind the wheel of my boat and dropping the anchor without saying to myself, secretly giving my orders to the crew "All right, lift the anchor, we're on our way to South Hampton. We're gonna beat them there with this load of tea!"

I grew my mustache when I was nineteen in order to look older. I never shaved it off even though it overran its usefulness many, many years ago. Once you get started in television, people associate you with your physical appearance - and that includes the mustache. So I can't shave it off now. If I did, I'd have to answer too much mail.

Putting it as strongly as I can, the failure to give free airtime for our political campaigns endangers our democracy.
