Eloquently spoken, Nixon makes the politicians of today sound like pre-schoolers.

[frankaffonso]

What an absolute sincere man, sharing his true emotions in humility..

[williamdonahue]

As Sen. Bob Dole said (paraphrasing here), "The greatest and most unlikely achievement of Nixon's presidency was the fact that, given his origins and introverted personality, he ever became President. He was like a 5'8" basketball player playing center in the NBA."

A very wise man. Doesn’t get the credit he deserves

[robsanderson]

As kids we were taught only about his watergate. I’m coming to know this man was a genius.

[jonnyd]

My parents didn't realize how distorted their view of nixon was until many years later. They, along with most others, just listened to whatever the news said.

[mikegregory]

His strong personality was both a blessing and a curse. How lucky we were that he was on our side.

[noelcallan]

I love these little reels, this is a side of Nixon nobody outside of America would know. He’s in a totally different league to the “statesman” we have today .

[Jbarazi]

They sure as Hell don’t make them like this any more.

[marieabraham]

A rare gem of a man. Was not recognized for his true worth, his humility and his great intellect.

[MurphyBats]

Still amazes me, 50 years later, that Nixon is the guy we threw out of office. There were (and are) plenty of others in government more deserving of this treatment.

[RandyHodder-zk]

He was a decorated veteran of ww2....his actions during the WAR ...saved thousands....!

[petermendoza]

Whoa! I think he held back tears at the end. And so did I 😢.

[mannydossantos]

Great man. Sorely missed. America needed him badly in these times.

[gaetanemcgraw]

This made me cry. RIP Président Nixon.

[hansfranklin]

I was only a kid, 7-8 years old, what little I knew of politics or Vietnam; how hated he was! Listening to his interviews now, how underrated he was as a President, politician and statesman! His knowledge and words of wisdom are surely lacking in our government today!

[TomMcHugh-lv]

I was too young to understand the Nixon presidency; and, all these years, I've listened to the media feed, which has uniformly pilloried Nixon.
But mainly thanks to this channel, I've come to see Nixon in a different light: he did "rise and fight again" as a great statesman and commentator of world politics.

[jamesharris]

Terribly underrated and a victim of the very media we are dealing with now.

[marionparris]

My feelings towards President Nixon never changed. He was one of the best President's ever.

What a majestic gentleman a titan compared to the sad politicians of today
