All of Washington DC vilified President Nixon as VP and as Commander in Chief. The Media despised him because they couldn’t debate him and win. The CIA set him up for the fall with Watergate to rid them of the threat of Nixons goal to reform the House and Senate. Reminds me of recent History with another President who had an election stollen with fake ballots.

Nixon was never as bad as people want to pretend he was. Especially 21st century people. His biggest flaw was paranoia followed closely by being loyal to his people. He could have easily thrown Liddy and the plumbers under the bus and walked away unscathed. Instead he tried to protect people that did something extraordinary stupid but did it in an effort to help him. People that know nothing more about Nixon that the Watergate claims owe it to themselves to learn more. The man was extremely intelligent and capable. His steps towards normalizing relations with China played a big part in the Soviet instability that lead to their collapse. People claim that Trump had an election stolen from him, but Nixon really did. JFK’s team cheated better.

It's true. Things were different in the US back then. The political and social polarization that's gripped our country simply didn't exist anywhere near to the current extent back then. It was often difficult to tell Republican from Democratic platforms. I used to think that was a bad thing, until I started seeing how things were progressing with party platforms begin to take on more extreme ideological tones. And look where we are now. I couldn't see an American politician speaking both decently and candidly about a political rival anymore, especially from another party.

President Nixon was and is still the target of a smear and discretization campaign. True, his presidency ended in the worst possible way. However, time and distance are now reevaluating his time in the White House and the man himself. Not surprisingly, his administration accomplished much, from establishing the EPA and DEA, among other things. Compared to today's corrupt, political climate, moreover, President Nixon's political crimes diminish in comparison. To his detractors, however, he will always be a loser. But it can not be denied, he defended freedom and Democracy, and went toe-to-toe with the communists like no president before or after him. He was well hated for his bombing strategies, but he had a job to do. Time will eventually redeem President Richard Nixon.

Nixon is - so far - the only American president who was forced to leave office. If he had not done so, he would have been the first president to be forced from office by impeachment. No president of the U.S.A. has been closer. So I don't regard Tricky Dick (as he was nicknamed) as a president with "class".

It's a shame that he was so paranoid of his enemies and had no one within his inner circle to stand up to him or simply say Mr. President you've won. He wanted to go further and beyond what he needed to do because he was a great politician which is evidenced by his landslide victory. I find his tapes to be rather amusing and find his humor to be one a kind.

The Prime Minister of the U.K., even the venerable Duke of Wellington who defeated Napoleon, never has dictatorial powers. He or she can be removed by their own party, or (indirectly) by a vote in a general election, at any time. Winston Churchill was removed as Prime Minister right after VE Day because the Labour Party won the general election. Churchill did have nearly dictatorial powers during World War 2 in Europe due to his leading of a three-party coalition government.

What a nice piece. I imagine he was a bit more relaxed with Pat Buchanan than he would have been with most other journalists, which likely explains the minor expletives. I'd be interested in finding and watching this entire interview. His insights into the Kennedys were quite interesting. I hadn't thought of Bobby as comparable to a 16th century Jesuit priest, but that is a perfect description. After he was shot, Bobby even clung to his Rosary and asked how others were doing. He was my favorite of the brothers, because of his passion. And yes, LBJ was an animal.

This is actually very much on purpose. As voter participation from the middle class has dropped in elections the last 40 years, politicians have very much been coached in simplifying their language to better communicate their message to working class voters, an increasingly important demographic, whether it is white Rust Belt workers for Trump or Hispanic farmers in California for Biden. Most of the drama is fabricated too, you think a Republican Congressman making $200k a year and with a nice vacation home in the Keys gives a flying crap about AOC dancing stupidly in college? Or a Democratic Congressman making the same amount giving a hoot about Representative Brooks posting pictures with guns at Christmas? Why do you think every politician is on Twitter, despite it being a pointless cesspit of circlejerks with no real increase in user numbers since 2012? It is all red meat to galvanize the base into team sports. They don’t want you to stop and think about issues, they just want to deliver a simple message that the opposite side is bad and evil. That is why Trump was so appealing to many Republicans, he would rant and rave about the opposition being evil or crooked or corrupt, but unlike his peers who only fake the third-grade level speech and outrage, he was actually speaking like that and actually outraged. No serious Republican politician wanted Trump elected; he’s a terrible Christian, former Democrat, only gives a crap about abortion or gun rights when pushed, and alienated many of the same conservative Hispanic voters they have been courting since 2000. Yet he won, because he speaks to the working class at their level, proving the people who have stressed the importance of simple messaging right. The hats were a nice touch too.

As a Republican, believing that he was unjustly driven out of office by the opposition, he still is able to admit that FDR and LBJ were powerful, significant presidents. My God, how our standards have collapsed.
