I am as proud of Nixon and you should be about Carter.Carter was a nice man. Nixon was a great man. There's a difference. But he was paranoid and payed for it. He payed for not crushing the silly Watergate case when he could have. There's no doubt the guy was totally off his rocker, but he did a hell of a lot more for America than any other modern president - his "peace with honor" was ultimately sincere. As well as the foreign policy achievements which are usually hyped up (China, SALT, Vietnam), his policies on domestic matters from the Environment to Drugs to Social Security were truly visionary. |
