A&E does a pretty good job at documenting Richard Nixon's roots to his resignation. We learn that this guy - although a Republican - is responsible for very social programs we indeed enjoy today as both employees and citizens. That his humble background, and life changing events while growing up, shaped him into who he would become as the first president ever to resign from office. His brother, childhood friends, daughter - many people who knew and worked with the man closely (or just exposed Watergate!) are all interviewed and this brings the viewer closer to getting to know just why he thought the way he did, why this "loner" should be best remembered for things the mainstream media have never felt as newsworthy. I purchased a copy of this 1996 A&E Biography episode for the archived footage I may use for a doc film project.Read full review
I am a Human Rights Active who is trying to end the illegal privacy invasion that has costed this nation 500 million http://www.whitehouse.gov/query.html?col=colpics&qt=Privacy+invasion with over 1000 invasion of privacy Presidental Executive Orders and 50 billion in identity theft at http://www.whitehouse.gov/query.html?col=colpics&qt=identity+theft with over 500 Presidental Executive orders. My website is http://home.bellsouth.net/p/PWP-metclay with links at the bottom of the page to register to vote and be involved with issues that face this nation. I believe that this is the future of interacting with one another using the internet as with cellular phones, pagers, faxes and other new devices. I also has photos about some illegal privacy invasion at my photo link.
