Nixon warns Americans vote to show world resolve
President Nixon urged Americans to vote to show global leaders that the United States will not retreat or surrender. He argued support for his foreign policy strengthens his hand and stressed a shift from confrontation to negotiation toward world peace. He defended past conduct, attacked the idea of peace by withdrawal, and cautioned that scrapping defenses would remove incentives for arms agreements with the Soviets. He spoke from the White House before a campaign trip to North Carolina and New Mexico en route to California.
