The Nation: TRYING TO BE ONE OF THE BOYS
(4 of 4) *Equally ignored was the startling revelation by Carter's
campaign manager, Hamilton Jordan, in a companion Playboy article by
Scheer, that two top foreign policy advisers to Carter are not being
considered for major appointments if the Democrat wins in November.
Jordan is quoted as saying: "If after the Inauguration you find a
Cy Vance as Secretary of State and Zbigniew Brzezinski as head of
National Security, then I would say we failed. And I'd quit. But that's
not going to happen. You're going to see new faces, new ideas.
The Government is going to be run by people you have never heard
of." The statement suggests considerable political naivete: why
embarrass such men as Vance and Brzezinski, advisers to Kennedy and
Johnson and experts on whom Carter is leaning for advice?
