- Mr. Ambassador.
- Good work. Thank you very much.
1:30:07
I think General Weyand
should take the credit, sir.
1:30:09
I'm aware of that.
Thank you.
1:30:13
I'll tell you this.
You throw a hell of a party.
1:30:18
A real blowout.
1:30:23
Let's get a picture.
1:30:29
Get a picture.
1:30:33
Come on.
1:30:39
I shall not seek
and I will not accept...
1:30:43
the nomination of my party
for another term as your president.
1:30:47
I, Richard Milhous Nixon, do solemnly
swear that I will faithfully...
1:30:52
execute the office
of president of the United States.
1:30:57
$$"Stop The War Now"
North Vietnam...
1:30:59
cannot defeat or humiliate
the United States.
1:31:03
Only Americans can do that.
1:31:06
We get really stoned.
1:31:08
Then, you know,
like who cares about the war?
1:31:11
Gentlemen...
1:31:12
and ladies...
1:31:15
as you know, General Westmoreland
has returned to Washington...
1:31:18
and General Abrams has replaced him
as commander of ground forces.
1:31:23
This reorganization is part of
the president's Vietnamization strategy.
1:31:29
Now, the new second in command,
General Weyand...
1:31:32
is here to brief you on the
implementation of this phase of the war.
1:31:37
Excuse me, Ambassador.
With Abrams in and Westy out...
1:31:39
is this an official admission
that Westmoreland's strategy...
1:31:42
was a failure?
1:31:43
General Westmoreland was promoted.
1:31:46
Ladies and gentlemen,
we now believe...
1:31:48
that South Vietnamese are ready
to take on a primary role...
1:31:51
in driving back
the enemy's forces--
1:31:54
their divisions, North Vietnamese
regulars across the western border.
1:31:59
Is this an American withdrawal?
