Transcript – Full

Ladies and gentlemen, here is Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge. My fellow Americans, we are engaged in a life and death struggle with world communism, which is determined to take over the world. But no one is going to take over our country, and no one is going to take over the world. We insist that the world be free and at peace, so that we can get on with the attack against poverty and injustice. The triumph of freedom and the safety of humanity depend on American leadership. We need a man of proven wisdom, calm judgment, tough intelligence, and first-hand knowledge of the forces which threaten liberty. Richard Nixon is that man, and I submit that America needs Richard Nixon. Vote for Nixon and Lodge November 8. They understand what peace demands.
