The Nixon Library has compiled the following list of references to the Silent Majority during the Nixon Administration.

On November 3, 1969, President Nixon gave a televised address stating his policy on the Vietnam War. The antiwar protest movement had staged the October Moratorium, a massive, coordinated day long protest of the war on October 15, 1969; calls to end the war quickly had become more prominent. In the speech, Nixon ran counter to the antiwar movement's vehemence. He emphasized peace with honor, Vietnamization, diplomatic negotiations, and troop withdrawals. At the end of the speech, Nixon asked for the support of the "great silent majority" of Americans. The administration received a tremendous outpouring of public support for his policy, including thousands of letters and telegrams delivered to the White House. The speech had an electoral impact as well. Because of the outpouring of support, this speech further coalesced, within the administration and the Republican Party, the sentiment that Republicans could achieve electoral realignment and a new Republican majority.

This subject guide seeks to list resources that show:

1969 foreign policy analyses and options explored by the Nixon administration (primarily the National Security Files listings)
Aspects of the speech itself, the reaction to it, and its influence on Nixon (Subject Files, President's Office and Personal Files, many White House Tape conversations)
The administration's recognition of an electoral opportunity and moves to capitalize on the "silent majority" (Staff Member and Office Files)

The guide is organized by collections in the Nixon Presidential materials
