   Nixon was elected on the basis of a promise to the American people
to end the war in Vietnam... he said he had a plan, but couldn't
reveal it, and so on.
   When he got into office, he got himself Kissinger, who had been
Rockefeller's foreign policy adviser and with whom he could not have
had "planning" sessions. Between the two of them, they carried on the
war for four more years, got more Americans killed than before, bombed
everything in sight, etc.
   "Pretty smart"!
