I don't know just why they wanted to call this a confession. I certainly don't feel guilty about being a Republican. I've always been a Republican. My father is, his father was the whole family, it's a Republican family. I voted for Dwight Eisenhower the first time I ever voted. I voted for Nixon the last time. But when we come to Senator Goldwater, now it seems to me we're up against a very different kind of a man. This man scares me. Now maybe I'm wrong. A friend of mine has said to me, listen, just because a man sounds a little irresponsible during a campaign doesn't mean he's going to act irresponsibly. You know that theory that the White House makes the man. I don't buy that. You know what I think makes a president. I mean aside from his judgment, his experience, the men behind him, his advisor is the cabinet. And so many men with strange ideas are working for Goldwater. You'll hear a lot about what these guys are against. This seems to be against just about everything. But what are they for? The hardest thing for me about this whole campaign is to sort out one Goldwater statement from another. A reporter will go to Senator Goldwater and say Senator, such as such a day you said, and I quote blah blah blah whatever it is, end quote. And then Goldwater says, well I wouldn't put it that way. I can't follow that. Was he serious when he did put it that way? Is he serious when he says he wouldn't put it that way? I just don't get it. A president ought to mean what he says. President Johnson now, Johnson at least is talking about facts. He says, look, we got the tax cut bill and because of that you get to carry home X number of dollars more every payday. We got the nuclear test ban and because of that there's X percent less radio activity in the food. But Goldwater, often you can't figure out just what Goldwater means by the thing she says. I read now where he says, wave a craven fear of death is sweeping across America. What does that supposed to mean? If he means that people don't want to fight a nuclear war, he's right. I don't. When I read some of these things that Goldwater says about total victory, I get a little worried. I wish I was assured that Goldwater is against war as I am that he's against some of these other things. I wish I could believe that he has the imagination to be able to just shut his eyes and picture what this country would look like. After a nuclear war. Sometimes I wish I'd been at that convention in San Francisco. I mean, I wish I'd been a delegate. I really do because I would have fought, you know. And I wouldn't have worried so much about party unity because if you unite behind a man, you don't believe him. It's a lie. I tell you, those people who got control of that convention, who are they? I mean, when the head of the Ku Klux Klan, when all these weird groups come out in favor of the candidate of my party, either they're not Republicans or I'm not, I thought about just not voting in this election, just staying home. But you can't do that because that's saying you don't want to fight. You don't care who wins and I do care. I think my party made a bad mistake in San Francisco. And I'm going to have to vote against that mistake on the third of November. Vote for President Johnson on November 3rd. The stakes are too high for you to stay home.
