I hate, hate, HATE what was and still is being done to Mr. Nixon and his memory!

He was a better choice than Kennedy, Humphrey or McGovern, but the Blackmun pick was awful, the EPA turned into a monster really quickly, the price controls weer a disaster, and arguably going full Keynesian and getting us of the gold standard a bigger one. We'll never know the other outcomes, but I'm not supportive of the opening to Red China at the expense of the Republic of China (Taiwan). I'm less of a realPolitik guy than he was. No use for Kissinger, either.

He loved his country, though. And those were dark times, and he took a serious approach to serious problems. I cannot lionize him, however.

All presidents make mistakes and hindsight is always 100%.

Nobody is asking you to "lionize" Mr. Nixon; however, I am DEMANDING that the Commie propaganda be disabused and corrected; which is what I have done and so have others on this thread.
