Transcription

I'm Mrs. Hustler, and I have a question for Barry Goldwater. I'm concerned about communism and its spread throughout the world. You know, as the years go by, they gain more ground all the time. And as time goes on, the matter is going to get much worse. I would like Mr. Goldwater to tell me his thoughts and ideas on how we can stop the spread of communism throughout the world. Well, the first thing we can and should do is to rebuild and revitalize our whole system of alliances. Top priority must go to repairing the damage done by this administration to the great North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which to me is the greatest peacekeeping force ever devised by free men. Our allies will know that, once again, America wants to work with them as equal partners in the cause of freedom and peace. In your heart, you know he's right. Vote for Barry Goldwater.
