I Happened Upon A Memoir By A Midlevel White House Staffer, And He Had Been In The Room That [nixon's Last] Night [in Office]. This Guy's Memoir Told Me What Nixon's Last Words Were. And They Were, On August 8, 1974, To The Crew: "have A Merry Christmas, Fellas!" That Was Just So Bizarre.

I Think Nixon Says A Lot About Those Times. It Was Possibly Hard, In The '90s And Early 2000s To Understand The Grip Of Fear That Communism Had On The Country In The 1950s And 1960s - A Fear Nixon Rode Like A Endless Great Wave On The Pacific To High Office.
