2. Yes, it's true. No debates that year. Furthermore,

Assold didn't lie. He said "race" not debate. On the other hand, what girly-man uses Botox?

3. She just played the clip and he didn't say "Humphrey Nixon Debate"

He said Humphrey Nixon Race - so theoretically he saw them speak on TV at different times.

4. I don't recall any debates that year.

After Kennedy-Nixon, the next presidential debates were Carter-Ford in 1976. The one wherein Gerald Ford stated there was no Communist rule in Poland.

6. No debates from 60-76

Edited on Wed Sep-01-04 03:38 PM by jpgray

Kennedy-Nixon being the last of 60, and Ford-Carter being the first in 76, I believe.

8. i hope this is the correct arnold quote

i hope this is the correct arnold quote

""having watched a 1968 presidential debate for which a friend provided the translation. " Humphrey stood for the government will solve all your problems," Schwarzenegger recalled. " Nixon said no, free to choose, let the people decide. So I said to my friend, which party is Nixon? He said Republican. OK, I said, I'm a Republican.""

9. It's a story that Arnie has told many times

And he might have actually gotten it right last night.

But in the past, he has said "debate", not race.
