Description
Former envoy to China George Bush spoke to a capacity crowd in Gaston Hall. He spent much of his speech attacking President Carter's foreign policy, which he called one of 'splendid oscillation.' He stopped short of declaring his candidacy for the 1980 Republican presidential nomination, although, when asked by a student if he was a candidate, he replied that he had not made a 'super-final decision' but 'was keenly interested in seeking the nomination.'
