He said he would authorize the use of tactical nuclear weapons in Vietnam and would CONSIDER pre-emptive nuclear strikes on the Soviet Union and China. Warmongers do not make good presidents.
His slogan was "In your heart you know he's right". The counter argument to that was "In your guts you know he's nuts"
