>> During the latter stages of Watergate, Henry Kissinger and Alexander Haig took steps to be certain that Nixon would not be able to execute nuclear launch codes without some sort of confirmation from Haig, and Nixon was far from as unstable as Barky is.

I don't have a cite/URL for that but I do have a solid recollection of reading it, I think a few years after Nixon passed away (mid-1990's), possibly an article on an interview with one of the other two (Haig or Kissinger). Now I'll have to go look it up...
