vietnam and that would ruin nixon's chances of getting elected. and that was why they went through chenault to get the message to the south vietnamese that they needed to stall. and indeed they did. after that, it was the south vietnamese that wouldn't budge. >> nixon's people moved in. and that told him, if you just hold out to election, don't go, stay away, nixon will never send you out. in the meantime, they took over the saigon embassy up here which i have pretty good information on. and the nixon people started going out and said don't go under any circumstances. so he just started tearing up our agreements. >> this is a shocking revelation. an american presidential candidate is taking steps to undermain the foreign policy
