    The women in Nixon's life - his mother and his wife - clearly were a huge influence and comfort for him. His sobbing grief at the funeral of Pat Nixon was very obvious.

      ​@wilhelmvg9978 I wouldn't doubt it, politics will drive a person insane and especially as far as president's go many of them have described it as lonely and depressing. At least once you leave office it's not your problem anymore.

      Nixon wasn’t a bad President. In fact he’s easily one of the better policy Presidents, and maybe the most intellectual on foreign policy that there’s ever been. He gets judged for one thing, when other Presidents have done MUCH worse.

    Had Nixon been rated based on his achievements alone (like the opening to China, establishment of the EPA, lowering the voting age to 18,......), he would've been ranked as among the great presidents of the 20th century, right up there with FDR, Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and Truman. Unfortunately, because of Watergate, he doesn't even rank as average. According to C-SPAN Presidential Survey conducted last year, even his successor, Jerry Ford, scored higher in the overall rankings despite being in office for just under 2 1/2 years.
