Annie should always be remembered for helping to end a war and save lives-without firing a shot in anger.

She might also be remembered for ending Goldwater's chances at the presidency. I think this is what he meant by "tactical nuclear weapons" that he might be willing to unleash in Vietnam. That made a lot of people's jaws drop. Barry's penchant for speaking his mind in those days might have been just a bit injudicious.

He might have lost anyway; but I think this issue made it a nuclear defeat.
