Patricia Nixon was a most charming, most special, most beautiful FIRST LADY after Jacqueline Kennedy. We miss her elegance and exceptional charisma. May She rest in Peace.

I love hearing Dick and Pat talking on the phone...they sound like such a close, loving couple.

what a great leader, far-sighted, and visionary; the World, China and the US are indebted to him. Yet not many would want to say. Thank you for showing this. The world will move forward not backward. No matter how hostile, and hateful, there will always be great leaders like Nixon, and Nixon 2, and 3, and more to open doors, smash walls and reach out to People, and unit people, no matter what ideals, values, or races, they are. None could separate them as people are all from the same Father.

China has come a very long way . Women there now all in the latest designer fashions, Beijing and other places in the Chinese Republic are no longer competing with Holland and Sweden even Denmark on who has the most bicycles, technology and transport continues to advance and so is the architecture , still remains one of the most polluted countries in the world and has one of the most polluted cities in the world also, before the Beijing Games 2008 had to quickly clean up Beijing . I like the progress of China and when it comes to the US I am with China, but I really think they are moving too fast too quickly in their progression in wanting to take over countries, China has taken over Jamaica, the other parts of the Caribbean, Taiwan, Africa even parts of Europe . Having trade and diplomatic ties is very important but taking over and aiming to do so entirely is very dangerous . I like the fact that when Hong Kong was given back to China they kept the dollar, but even for Hong Kong deserves their independence in their governing, their laws and way of life . Tibet should be given back to the Tibetans . I alwauys and leave Taiwan alone they need independence . I was a country I would rather trade with China than America . With America trade would be limited . Pat Nixon was a very good First Lady one of the few best along with Jackie Beauvier Kennedy Onassis would have been Templesman, Lady Bird Johnson, Mrs George Washington, Mrs Eisenhower , Mrs Ford despite everything, Mrs Laura Bush and Mrs Melania Trump .
