American independent Campaign Juky 20.1968 Rally
George Wallace said in a rally that the only four letter words that hippies did not know were w-o-r-k and s-o-a-p.
He accused Humphrey and Reagan of wanting to desegregate the South since becoming Alabama: S Governor In THE 50"S Wallace has been vocal in his support of segregation. during his governor inaugural he said, "
In the name of the greatest people that have ever trod this earth, I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.
George Wallace's running mate Enra Taft Benson was kicked out of the Mormon church for running with Wallace on the American Independent ticket.
That is the cost of fame Benson told a friend.
I know Wallace will never win but for good or ill I will forever be associated with the Wallace campaign.
Elsewhere in London August 1.1968
John Lennon began working on solo album in Ernest. working with him is Dave Davis of the kinks. Ringo star.Chris Deja .
Paul McCartney also began work on his first solo album he would play all the music on first musical solo adventure.
George Harrison met a new group bad finger Harrison would jam with them Harrison also jammed on stones album, beggars banquet filling in with he drug addicted Brian Jones.
Mick Jagger told Harrison if he left the Beatles he would be more then welcomed to join the Rolling stones.
Harrison was flattered but working under Mick and Keith would not be much different then Paul and john.
Vietnam. 1968 Ronald Reagan. Ted Kennedy. the war in south east Asia had engulfed President Johnson"s presidency and was the reason he did not seek re-election. President Lyndon Baines Johnson Rockefeller as his successor but the choice was not his to make.
Rockefeller however was Humphreys running mate and President Johnson wanted Humphrey to win so
Rockfeller could at least have the number 2 spot. when vice president Humphrey broke from the administration and admitted Vietnam was a big mistake there was nothing
presidentdent Johnson could do ,Humphrey rose slightly in the polls as of August 1968 it was Reagan 49% to Humphrey 40%Wallace 11%.
Unlike vice president Humphrey Governor Reagan was considered charismatic to many voters and considered a political outsider compared to vice president
Humphrey.
Many Democrats were considering going over to the Republican camp to vote for the California Governor.
]Former vice president Nixon had already endorsed governor Reagan. senator Strom Thurmond assured Reagan he would win the south very easily.
]Senator Kennedy since being rescued form the cult displayed bizarre behavior causing many to fear he had lost his mind.
The Massachusetts senator shaved his head and constantly rambled.
"This can't be happening.
It couldn't have been that bad." I can move beyond this experience and choose new directions in my life" Many thought he would not be mentally able to campaign for reelection senator 2 years from now.
Save Star Trek 1968
Third season of star trek producers were desperate to get the show back on its proper footing in the ratings. The script for spock's brain was scrapped instead "Joanna was first episode of third season of star trek. Celeste Yarnall who played in a earlier episode of star trek would play doctor McCoy's doctor Joanna
McCoy. Planet of apes 1968
Hollywood Wedding ]Roddy McDowall and Marlon Brando became close friends after filming Planet of apes together. so it should come as no surprise
when McDowall asked Brando to be his best man when he married Halley Miles.
There were plans for a sequel to planet of apes but its star Charton Heston had already announced a senate run-in 1970
and Brando would only reprise his role of Zauis as a cameo. Roddy McDowall however told producers he could do a t.v series of apes after he is done directing tam lin.
Rod Serling by this time had already wrote a script for a proposed planet of apes t.v show.
Gilligan lost in syndication!!
In 1967 Gunsmoke was canceled by c.b.s such a move orchestrated by cbs proved so unpopular Senator Robert Byrd even criticized the network's decision on the Senate floor. Gun smoke would stay but Gilligan's Island would go . However
Gilligan had a unique cult following and producers began filming first run episode s of fourth and fifth season of Gilligan in syndication.Last edited:

The enduring power of star trek!! Star Trek would get a fourth season but Leonard Nimoy would not be returning Rex Holman would be taking his place as mr. Spock. In 1977. Star Trek would return as star trek phase two the regulars Shatner, deforest Kelly would return with new actors playing Vulcan scienceofficer. first officer, decker.illya. phase two would last 5 season. in 1987. star trek the next generation would debut Patrick Stewart would play captain picard ,
Monika Ramirez of big foot wild boy fame would play security officer Macha Hernandez Tasha yar. Deanna troi would be written out of first draft..in best of both worlds Patrick Stewart would ask to be written out of star trek.Actor Yaphet Kotto would replace Patrick Stewart as Captain James Connors. Of the Enterprise.
Long and winding road In the time frame the Beatles take a break from each other.
George Harrison, Rick Nelson ,Bo didley. Roy Orbison formed a super group. The sidemen and toured west Coast of the united States. Ringo Star had a small part in the film True grit. John Lennon and Paul McCartney would meet in Liverpool to write some songs and duscuss the future of the Beatles.

As 1972 approached,
President Richard Reagan faced uncertain re-election prospects.
Reaganan had been elected in 1968 on a platform to end American involvement in Vietnam,
Since 1969 rapid bombing of southeast asia spread across vietnam from 69 to 71.
Shirley Chisholm announced she would run and became the first black person ever to run for president on a major party ticket and the first woman to run for the Democratic presidential nomination.
she won Texas. Nevada
Hubert Humphrey was going to make another run at the nomination, in an era when previous nominees were considered legitimate contenders even after losing a general election (
Adlai Stevenson had been successful at being re-nominated by Democrats in 1956, and Nixon by the GOP in 1968).
The Happy warrior was going through cancer treatment which would extend his life so he could not run. Edmund Muskie ran but he was a underdog and did not get much traction.
George Macgovern ran but won mostly rural states was considered to far to the left by many Democrats
John Connolly ran.he won many southern states but was first to drop out.
Governor George Wallace ran and won many southern states he was almost assassinated by Arthur bremer and dropped out.
New york city mayor John
v.lindsay. won florida.wisconson.utah
Vice president Charles Percy Would Not Run iN 72 as vice president but as senator.
John Tower would take his place on the ticket.
Planet of apes
Planet of apes t.v. series would debut on cbs Roddy Mcdowall would play a tv version of cornelius .
While at home he and his wife Haly miles mcdowall would give birth to a son Neil mcdowall.
January 2.1972 ]Pete duel returns to alias Smith and Jones after failed suicide attempt.
March 12.1972
Activist Jesse Jackson says on meet the press president
