That the Chinese want their leader called “president” shows they know he is illegitimate and that their system and communist party are fake. It’s the same with vege-burgers and vege-hotdogs. It’s fake food unsuccessfully pretending to be real food. Like the democrats here: fake, fake, fake.

Thanks for the insight from both of you regarding Nixon and China.

I was born in ‘68 and I don’t know if you guys were older during Nixon’s presidency, but I have found that those who lived through something offer assessments that wikipedia and history books don’t.

I refer to Taiwan as ROC :)

Nixon was a disaster. Here he is with his longtime Chinese communist girlfriend 20 years his junior, a relationship started when Nixon was Eisenhower's vice-president and she was a bar girl.

JFK used his brother, the attorney general, to conduct secret contacts with the Soviet ambassador during the Cuban missile crises. Maybe they should dig Jack up and impeach him.
