All Nixon had to do when watergate broke was to immediately come forward, accept full responsibility for what his people did & promise punishment and there would've been no impeachment proceedings & no resignation. He screwed up with a cover up.

I wish I could see all of this interview. It’s a shame that a crime committed by others affected his presidency so much.

Can you please post the full 1952 interview? Nixon was a great politician!

Can you imagine the current press asking Biden these types of tough, hard, questions?

Well stated Mr. President. We still love you and forgive you. RIP dear Sir.

He was an intelligent, hard working man, and his political savvy was out of question. That said, he had no charisma and was socially akward, which cost him dearly with the press. Not to mention is ethics were questionable, even by US potus standards.

What a great President. I was not born yet. Had the normal school teachings of Watergate. Then I began to read.: My conclusion. A great President. Wish we had him today.

I think LBJ and Nixon were great presidents.
