I never liked Nixon and don’t like him now, but I can’t imagine how you can call him weak, the older I get the more I keep seeing what an iron man he was and tough in high power politics.

Look at his career and how much was directed against him since at least the 1950s, yet how he not only endured but prevailed.

He was despised and mocked, belittled, even dismissed from politics after the 1960 election, but look at post 47.

Several of the men in his administration spent time in prison...could he have kept them from paying that price?

His whole demeanor during that time did not help him. He had no stature of a strong person.

I voted for him but he was a huge let down after Eisenhour. The day John Dean testified, he threw Nixon under the bus. That one man was a rat... you dont serve and then use the man to further your career that way.

I didnt like Nixon ..Dean the rat I Really didnt like.

Nixon’s personality was unlikeable. Period.
