	The History Place - Impeachment: Richard Nixon
		This second loss led Nixon to bitterly announce he was leaving politics, telling reporters "...you won't have Nixon to kick around anymore." However, he re-emerged as a presidential candidate in 1968 and ran a successful campaign against Democrat Hubert Humphrey, squeaking out a victory in one of the closest elections in U.S. history.
		President Nixon's personal secretary Rose Mary Woods was eventually blamed as having caused the erasure supposedly after she had been asked to prepare a summary of taped conversations for the President.
		In all of this, Richard M. Nixon has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as President and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of the cause of law and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

	watergate.info - The Scandal That Destroyed President Richard Nixon
		By 1952, Nixon had been chosen as Dwight Eisenhower's vice-presidential running mate, but not before he was embroiled in a scandal that led to the infamous Checkers Speech.
		Nixon died in 1994 and was eulogised by the political establishment, although he was still a figure of controversy.
		The investigations into Watergate that led to the resignation of Richard Nixon are a case study in the operation of the American Constitution and political values.

	PBPB \| Public Broadcasting PolicyBase
		These summaries were prepared and released during the Carter Administration by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, the successor agency of the White House Office of Telecommunications Policy, a central player in the 1969-74 conflict.
		In publishing The Nixon Administration Public Broadcasting Papers 1969-1974, the NAEB is making available to its members and other interested parties a record of a particularly critical period in the history of public broadcasting.
		Specifically, many of the Nixon Administration policy documents show a pattern of practices that evidence the extent to which public broadcasting has been subject to political pressures--practices which are germane to issues raised both by your Commission's recent report and current legislative activities of the House and Senate Communications Subcommittees.

	Nixon and Vietnam (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		His cultivation of the press aroused suspicion within the administration and led to charges of "grandstanding" and upstaging the president; reports his "hawkish" stance within administration councils and his use of wiretaps on staff members aroused the ire of liberals and anti-war activists.
		Nixon could, Phillips contended, build a permanent national majority for the Republicans by holding his traditional Republican base while augmenting that base with southern Democrats (many of whom voted for George Wallace in 1968) and other conservative elements in the Democratic Party.
		On the eve of Nixon's trip to Moscow, it was revealed that the U.S. had mined North Vietnamese harbors and in the wake of the trip, the U.S. launched new rounds of bombing raids on Hanoi and Haiphong (June 9th and August 28th).

	Bush: Worse Than Nixon
		The Nixon administration bugged my home phone — without a warrant — beginning in 1973, when I was on the staff of the National Security Council, and kept the wiretap on for 21 months.
		Nixon and his colleagues seemed to understand that and worked hard to keep their activities secret.
		Although the Nixon administration did argue (like the Bush administration) that virtually anything the president did to promote national security was lawful, it never presented an argument to justify these particular transgressions.

	Nixon Reconsidered by Steven Hayward (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Social spending soared from $55 billion in 1970 (Nixon’s first budget) to $132 billion in 1975, from 28 percent of the federal budget when LBJ left office to 40 percent of the budget by the time Nixon left in 1974.
		Ronald Reagan would run and govern as much against the legacy of Nixon as he would the legacy of the Great Society, and it was a number of Nixon’s administrative creations that would cause Reagan the most difficulty during his White House years.
		Nixon attempted to reverse course at the outset of his ill-fated second term, and set himself to the herculean task of taming the bureaucracy and getting control of federal spending.

	Richard Nixon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Richard Nixon was born in Yorba Linda, California to Francis A. Nixon and Hannah Milhous Nixon.
		Nixon's sense of being persecuted by his "enemies," his grandiose belief in his own moral and political excellence, and his commitment to utilize ruthless power at all costs led some experts to describe him as having a narcissistic and paranoid personality.
		Nixon is one of only two men to have run on five National tickets for a major party (the other is FDR) for Vice President in 1952 and 1956 and for the presidency in 1960, 1968 and 1972.

		Nixon has changed his once rigid views about the necessity to maintain relations and a dialogue with the Communist world, including Red China, when that now chaotic country has a government that can be responsive.
		Nixon did so believing that they were voting for Conservative theories to cure the disastrous effects of the Liberal theories that had held sway for nearly forty years.
		Nixon’s policies toward Social Security, welfare payments, arms control and coexistence with the Communist world are quite different from the policies he supported when he was a congressman, a senator and vice president under Eisenhower.

	Reorganization Plan No. 3 of 1970 \| EPA History \| US EPA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The Congress, the Administration and the public all share a profound commitment to the rescue of our natural environment, and the preservation of the Earth as a place both habitable by and hospitable to man. With its acceptance of the reorganization plans, the Congress will help us fulfill that commitment.
		Section 907 of title 5 of the United States Code will operate to preserve administrative proceedings, including any public hearing proceedings, related to the transferred functions, which are pending immediately prior to the taking effect of the reorganization plan.
		The Administrator may from time to time make such provisions as he shall deem appropriate authorizing the performance of any of the functions transferred to him by the provisions of this reorganization plan by any other officer, or by any organizational entity or employee, of the Agency.

	BIOWAR
		With this decision, the administration also agreed to submit the 1925 Geneva Protocol banning biological and chemical weapons to the Senate for ratification (see Documents 10-11, 21), and in 1972 joined over 100 other nations in signing the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention, which banned the possession of biological weapons except for defensive research.
		As the discussions leading up to Nixon's decision and the initial annual report reveal, one important issue was the extent of continued defensive research that would still be required to maintain U.S. defenses against such weapons, and to what degree such research should remain classified.
		As Kissinger stresses, the most complex issue is how to handle the administration's view that that Protocol does not prohibit the use of tear gas and herbicides in war, as this is directly related to the U.S. war effort in Vietnam.

		A delegation of senior officials from the Chinese National Tourism Administration visited the Library Saturday during a Southern California swing organized by the Los Angeles Convention and Visitors Bureau.
		As the personal assistant to President Nixon for most of his tenure in office and the person who ran his daily schedule and the operation of the Oval Office, I, therefore, had perhaps the best insight into the challenging demands on him which I still marvel did not exhaust him.
		Jerris Leonard, an assistant attorney general for civil rights during the Nixon administration and the first administrator of the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration, died of complications of liver cancer July 27 at a hospital in Washington, D.C. He was 75.

	Social Security Online, Nixon White House Tapes
		To date the Nixon Presidential Materials Staff has reviewed and opened approximately one thousand four hundred and forty-four (1444) hours of the complete conversations from the Nixon White House tapes for public access.
		This conversation is notable because it suggests that President Nixon may not have been a strong supporter of the FAP that his Administration had been developing.
		As part of the Nixon Administration price controls, there was an effort to control rents, through the Administration's Rent Control Program.

		Long didn't like the idea adding millions of people to the rolls, but he wasn't at all adverse to the notion of giving poor people a helping hand--as long as it was done in a way that would encourage rather than discourage work.
		Like Richard Primoff, when I first learned of the Bradley attack I assumed that what Gore had said was that he had been a main proponent of the various expansions of the EITC (which, as Edward Byrnes has noted, have had the unfortunate side effect of making it a prime target of tax cheats).
		The first claim is highly unlikely even if one assumes that Al Gore means he was the author of the more recent expansion and not the EITC proposal.
