If Nixon could only see what politicians get away with today in America.

2:56 Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow. Vice President Ford will be sworn in as President at that hour in this office.

I was there when all this happened. As a young child, JFK’s assassination taught me that even the President was mortal. And as a teenager, Watergate taught me the President was also fallible.

I can't imagine what this must have been like at the time. With all the media and newspapers headlines, the reports on television, everyone talking about it everywhere. I almost wished I wouldve been alive at that time to witness it from the beginning.
