The most terrible thing that he did is be a Republican. This to our great MSM is worse than being a murderer.

Actually the worst thing I can say about Richard Nixon is he was a classic Rockefeller (Liberal) Republican. If he had been a Democrat he would have been a darling of the media. I agree with Stein that things MIGHT have been different if Nixon had remained in office. No Gerald Ford who out Rockerfellered Rockefeller. Maybe no Jimmy Carter. AND maybe no Ronald Reagan. So maybe by sacrificing Richard M. Nixon we were able to at least defeat the Soviet Union.

He lied to protect his subordinates who were covering up a ridiculous burglary that no one to this date has any clue about its purpose.

IMHO, Untrue...It has been suspected, why the break-in occurred, Deans' "then girlfriend" was a "Workin' Girl", her photo(s) were kept in a DNC "VIP Perks" book. The people who "broke-in" did so on the orders of Dean, not Nixons'..they were to retrieved those photos for Dean, not Nixon...and since Nixon was the head of the GOP @ that time. he got the blame.

...of course, if Slick Willie/sHillary and their Ilk had done this, MSM would have given "the Whole Gang" a Pass and then have cheered him for it, when/if it were revealed.

The most terrible thing that he did is be a Republican...and accusing (backed up by Whitaker Chamber's "Pumpkin Papers") Algier Hiss, of being a Soviet Spy.

I still regard Nixon's demise as a coup d'etat engineered by the press. The whole thing was started by the Pentagon Papers and Nixon's efforts to stem the illegal leaking of classified information to a press determined to undermine the Vietnam War.
