I decided to start a whole new thread for Dick's enemies. There were a few, maybe 10, for which I couldn't find birthdates, but they probably weren't/aren't very notable, so I decided not to include them.

arrowsmith 334 Posted February 3, 2023 As there has been some confusion, and the Wikipedia entry is a mess, I went through the sources for the original list of ‘Nixon Enemies’. They can properly be split into three groups as I explain below. Original L ist of 20 has two living: Morton Halperin Sidney Davidoff Addendum to Original List of “Political Opponents” has 18 living: Fred Harris William Clay Charles Rangel James S. Doyle Ted Knap Morton Kondracke Martin Nolan Garry Wills Marvin Kalb Bill Cosby Jane Fonda Joe Namath Barbra Streisand Victor Palmieri Derek Bok Noam Chomsky Daniel Ellsberg Matthew Meselson - and five that I am having trouble finding obituaries for or proof that they are still alive Vincent McGee? (Business Executives for Peace and Aaron Diamond Foundation) James Laird? (Philadelphia Inquirer) George Hillman? (Ellery Products Manufacturing Co.) Charles Palmer? (National Student Association) Seymour Scharer? (Scharer & Associates) There is a third list of nearly six hundred names that I am not going to go through because they are merely anyone who worked for, or donated significant money too, the George McGovern campaign in 1968. Many well known people are on this list for no other reason than writing a check. Names which appear on the Wikipedia list but not on the list above are not actually on either of the first two lists. Some of them are on the third list and some of them are apocryphal and unsourced. Perhaps some of you would be interested in helping find out the fate of the mystery five? Any help is appreciated. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of the “mysterious five”, do a forum search as I’m pretty sure me and @arghton tried to tackle some of them before. If you still can’t find anything then I’m happy to do some research, and if I get stuck I’ll wheel out the God of Research, the @tracy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was asked about his diagnosis/prognosis from February and joked about “living on a deadline.” He appears to be doing well under the circumstances.
