That’s an extremely stupid comment since I never said he didn’t.
I merely pointed out that his famous “Silent Majority” speech wasn’t made until 1969 and it was only then that the phrase became popularly known.
That’s in stark contrast to your initial post on the supposed events of 1969.
Of course by your own admission, had you claimed in 1968 that Nixon appealed to “the Silent Majority” they wouldn’t have known what you were talking about because he didn’t make his “Silent Majority” speech until over a year later. The closest you come to is a reference to a “silent center” which never caught on.
You didn’t make a typo. You revealed that you thought that the ARVN was the army of the North Vietnamese government.
As already pointed to, you foolishly claimed that Nixon made his “Silent Majority” speech in 1968 when in fact, he didn’t make it until November of 1969, a year after he was in office.
Here is an excerpt from Nixon’s famous “Silent Majority” speech.

Anyway, at this point you seem to be in willful denial of reality and I think that it would be unfair to others on this thread to continue this silly hijack because you can’t accept the fact that you made some rather jaw-dropping mistakes about an era you claim to be quite interested in and know lots about.
Once again, I suggest if you want to continue this conversation, I recommend opening a thread in the pit and letting people on this thread getting back to discussing the use of the phrase “In God We Trust”.
I’ll be happy to discuss it with you there were we won’t be constrained.
