Vietnam blew up in LBJ's face before Nixon was president.

Get your news from Walter Cronkite? The war was substantially won, despite LBJ's mismanagement. Nixon had almost finished the job until Watergate gave the Dems a pretext to cut funding. The 1973 oil embargo and resulting sharp economic downturn presented a double whammy for Nixon.

You get your news from Party Headquarters? Yah, that nasty little Watergate affair. Just a damned shame those ex CIA clowns got caught, eh? Yer toilet backed up? I got a couple of guys you should call... The Republican Party USA creates most of their problems all by themselves by being the Step n’ Fetchit for Wall St.
