A two-page Gallup Poll detailing public approval ratings of President Nixon after his November 3, 1969 Vietnam policies speech. It reports that Nixon won a vote of confidence of seventy-seven percent of Americans on his Vietnam policies. The report says that although the public had a "highly favorable" initial reaction, public opinion in the coming weeks would largely depend on the actual withdrawal rate of U.S. troops from Vietnam. This Gallup Poll was attached to a November 5, 1969 letter from Special Assistant Bryce Harlow to Congressman Jack Brooks regarding President Nixon's public approval ratings [camh-dob-001141].
