    I went from being a Goldwater worker at the RNC National Convention in 1960, even a charter member of Bill Buckley’s YAF that same year to becoming anti-war and warming up to JFK by the time of the assassination.  A big influence on me had been reading an article by Harvard economist John Kenneth Galbraith on why we should not get involved in Vietnam.  He was on the Harvard faculty when JFK enrolled there in 1937 and the professor and student became friends.  With Galbraith having the ear of Kennedy I’ve always believed that he would influence JFK to deescalate our involvement in SE Asia.http://www.johnkennethgalbraith.com/index.php?page=articles&display=10&from=12

    Frankly (sorry for all you Franks), I had a hard time digesting your prose, so my response is prolly not terribly relevant.Is there any way you could distill your post into some bullets? You know, Point A with supporting subpoints A.1, etc.? What is your overlying concept and how do you support/destroy it?Love your blog, however!

    Hi Rip,

    When I wrote the post, I made sure to section it up by event (“The Space Race”, “Vietnam” and “Civil Rights”). Each paragraph could be considered a bullet point.

    I’m afraid I don’t rewrite posts unless I made a gross mistake that requires correction.

    I recommend concentrating on a paragraph at a time to more easily digest the article.

    Thanks for reading! Be sure to check back every Monday for our latest post.
