	Description:		“He told me, ‘Well, I’m going to go to Peking, then I’m going to go to Moscow, and that’s the way we will end the (Vietnam) War.’” Ed Cox is recalling a conversation with Richard Nixon in February 1968, when Nixon was running for President and Cox was dating his daughter Tricia. Cox is a former head of the New York Republican State Committee, a Trustee of CED, the public policy center of The Conference Board—and Tricia Nixon’s husband. In a new episode of CEO Perspectives, The Conference Board President and CEO Steve Odland sits down with Cox to discuss Nixon’s foreign policy and the history of US-China relations.
