Robert Dryden: Missile countdown

Quotes 

• [a little girl is in a field plucking flowers off a daisy] 

  Little Girl : One... two... three... four... five... seven... six... six... eight... nine... nine...

  Missile countdown : [amplified voice echoes as the picture zooms in on one of the girl's eyes]  Ten -- nine -- eight -- seven -- six -- five -- four -- three -- two -- one -- zero.

  [a loud nuclear explosion] 

  Lyndon Baines Johnson : [over footage of nuclear explosions]  These are the stakes. To make a world in which all of God's children can live, or to go into the dark. We must either love each other, or we must die.

  Announcer : Vote for President Johnson on November 3rd. The stakes are too high for you to stay home.
