Never did I dream or did I ever in my wildest fears imagine that in my lifetime I would see the realization of some of those fears when Henry Kissinger and General Haig got together and said. "If the President does not quit. we are going to invoke the 25th amendment." Why? Why would I get up in 1965. never thinking any such thing would happen or that it would even be approved. Because. first. and above all. my background. My father was what today would be called a refugee because he actually had been placed against a wall and was going to get shot. and through a miracle there he was saved and fled the country. But his roots had been there for 400 years. so the anguish of that exile cannot be described. But we were born here. and our parents never quite realized that.
