:36:01
Thank you!
:36:03
Mr. Nixon!
:36:06
I believe Governor Brown has a heart...
:36:10
...even though he believes
I do not.
:36:13
Uh, I believe
he's a good American...
:36:17
...even though he feels
I am not.
:36:19
I'm proud of the fact that I defended
my opponent's patriotism.
:36:24
You gentlemen didn't report it,
but I'm proud that I did that.
:36:30
And I would appreciate it, for once gentlemen,
if you would just print what I say.
:36:35
Uh, for 16 years...
:36:37
...uh, ever since the Hiss case,
you've had a lot of fun.
:36:41
A lot of fun.
:36:42
But recognize you have
a responsibility...
:36:45
...if you're against the candidate,
to give him the shaft.
:36:49
But if you do that, at least put one
lonely reporter on the campaign...
:36:52
...who will report
what the candidate says now and then.
:36:55
Uh, I think...
:36:59
...all in all, I've given
as good as I've taken.
:37:02
But as I leave you, I wis...
I want you to know.
:37:05
Just think what you're
gonna be missing.
:37:08
You won't have Nixon
to kick around anymore.
:37:12
Kick around anymore.
:37:23
Because, gentlemen,
this is my last press conference.
:37:26
Thank you and good day.
Mr. Nixon!
:37:29
Mr. Nixon, is this the end
of politics for you?
:37:39
Here in California...
:37:41
...we can officially write the political
obituary of Richard Milhouse Nixon.
:37:45
As mall town lawyer like Lincoln,
Nixon became a representative at 33
:37:49
...and a senator at 35
:37:51
...as part of the post war Republican sweep
of the congressional elections...
:37:54
...that attacked F.D.R.'s
big-government new deal.
:37:57
Running as
a South Pacific veteran...
:37:59
...victories over Congressman Jerry Voorhis
and Senator Helen Gahagan Douglas...
