Tell your friends Nixon was also innocent because he wasnt convicted of anything and see how they respond.......I happened to be out of town during the Nixon Kerffuffle, but other than stick up for his men, WHAT was he charged with THAT WAS A CRIME?
They had him on tape talking about hush money for the Watergate burglars, among some other activities that might be considered obstruction of justice - VERRRY similar to what PIAPS did.
