Anyone old enough to remember Nixon’s resignation?

RFK’s assignation was probably like this. He was odds on favorite to be the Dems candidate when he was killed June 5th 1968

I remember my 8th grade English teacher brought a tv in the classroom and we watched Watergate. That was boring. I was 9 when RFK and Martin Luther were shot.

The apollo moon landing was cool, we were glued to the tv, that was several days. all the kids in the neighborhood watching at someone’s house.

Maybe Ronald Reagan’s funeral. Especially watching everyone lining the route, Nancy Reagan in the car waving to the crowds.

But, not every day. There wasn’t media coverage like today. No wonder I’m tired.
