    I voted for Nixon every time he was on the ballot for President. I do not regret it at all. Probably the most intelligent man ever to be President.

    Well that was really great. His intelligence and leadership sure blows any of the last 3 “Presidents” out of the water. It’s so important that raw footage like this still exists and is freely shared. Too bad the majority will never see it and learn.

      Richard Nixon was a titan as a politician. Unfortunately, he let his personal demons get the best of him. It does seem that people today are rediscovering Nixon and how smart and strategic he was.

      He was a terrible president who did great things! Opened the doors to china and Russia. Made the voting age 18 and lowered the speed limit from 70 to 50..amongst 100 other things. However, he prolonged the Vietnam War by promising the North a " better deal" when he becomes president. He covered up watergate and was litterally friendless.

    If one looks at how State of the Union addresses have been filmed, Richard Milhous Nixon's have been the best. The kinetic nature, the novel framing and of course that odd pastel quality to the colours. Plus film but even the '80s look barbaric in comparison. I adored the shots at the end.

    nixon was caught on tape saying some not so good words about blacks once.. and im not saying this to be disparaging.. just stating facts.. and here's another fact.. BLACK PEOPLE LOVED HIM!!!.. I'm middle aged.. and when I was teenager.. a black retired army sergeant that i came across said if nixon ran for president tomorrow he would vote for him mainly because of vietnam.. When I was probably about 10 years old I remember hearing a black lady say (and she was poor) how good of president nixon was. she was referring to his social policies. Those are two examples.. the crowd that I was with when I was with the black lady was a mixed crowd.. of black folks and white liberals.. all of the black folks agreed with the black lady. men and women. The white libs were looking stunned.

    Nixon had so much going for him and he blew it all because of his paranoia. That led him to wander into areas that proved deadly. Perhaps it can be explained by the things that were common in politics and government back then that the public never knew about. Unfortunately, times change and there often comes a point that what was once grudgingly accepted is no longer tolerated. I think Nixon was caught in such a situation and his self destructive practice of taping everything he discussed was the final nail in his coffin. His knowledge of the world and government would have made him one of the most consequential presidents of the 20th century had he completed his second term. Instead, his substantial accomplishments will always be overshadowed by Watergate and the illegal actions related to it.

Sadly,a nice guy.Rfk wanted that title but wasnt to be.I hated to deliver papers that day.
