This former astronaut fought against other countries acquiring the atomic bomb. Though he relied heavily on Boston TV in his campaign here, he opposed a New England regional primary and strongly supported NH's first-in-the-nation status.


"Person-to-person, grassroots democratic politics is still more effective than the impersonal media campaign."
