Transcription

In Tuesday's primary, John Anderson is asking for Republicans to support him, yet he sent letters everywhere asking Americans to support Democrats like George McGovern. John Anderson refuses to express support for the nominee of his own party for president. John Anderson has even refused to rule out running against Republicans himself as a third party candidate. Now, as Republicans, aren't we being asked a little too much? A better idea for the party and our country is George Bush. Thanks for watching.
