In all Honesty I was a Nixon fan but hats in my school were still not allowed.
Well, my parents were for Nixon, so I naturally was as well. I was devastated when Nixon lost to JFK in the mock election we held in class. I was for him, and even liked him after he resigned in disgrace. It wasn’t until much later that I saw Nixon as one of the worse Presidents, especially on the Republican side. He was more liberal than conservative to be sure, and some of his legacies are biting us in the tail to this day, like the EPA that he created by executive order.
