I was too young then to have more than the vaguest memories of Nixon’s presidency, but read quite a bit about it, including the “All the President’s Men” series, and believed the conventional wisdom about Nixon’s corruption. I’ve started to think more and more, though, that maybe if Nixon had been a Democrat, he would have finished out his term and “Watergate” wouldn’t be a word for scandal.
