In a demanding critique from Pumpana Beach Florida the Sun Sentinel argues President Johnson should adopt a tougher stance on Vietnam and a balanced approach to the steel dispute. It accuses him of weak threats and favoring labor interests while urging clear actions to deter an enemy offensive and curb steel price hikes.
