add to cart   close window

This article focuses on several issues related to up-coming presidential elections and domestic policies of the United States. Assumptions are made for the 1968 presidential elections that the an appalling percentage of ballots are going to be cast "against" rather than "for." The voters are unhappy with the three leading contenders Richard M. Nixon, Hubert Humphrey and George Wallace. In the lull between police actions at Columbia last spring, members of the faculty appointed an investigating commission headed by Archibald Cox, a Harvard University professor of law and former U.S. Assistant Solicitor General.
