He was an outstanding president and we will probably have to wait for decades before someone really gets the truth out on that period of our history.

Those are my sentiments as well.

I know we swim against the tide.

You got THAT right! It has become a solid article of faith that Nixon was a "crook", thanks to a Leftist-slanted educational system and indifferent study of the history.

I would love to see a study of what the world might have been like if Nixon had been elected in 1960 instead of John Kennedy. The confrontations between the Soviets and the US that came so close to thermonuclear war would likely not have happened, the Vietnam War would almost certainly not have happened, and while we wouldn't have had "Camelot", we wouldn't have spent ourselves into the dirt the way Kennedy and LBJ did.

There would have been a whole lot more of us alive if Daley's machine hadn't shoved Kennedy on us instead of Richard Nixon.
