Many of you need to read history and get the true facts.

1952: Nixon is not a quitter. 1974: Nixon resigns from office.

It may be 2012, but we need Nixon now, more than ever.

well dick, you sure saw to it that the taxpayers had to pay for this shit though, didnt you ...

the funny thing is that you wouldnt be recognised by the republicans of today. you and eisenhower would both be branded as leftists and kicked to the curb by today's republican america.

although to be fair, the year of this speech is also the same year that the military took full control of the usa, and has pretty much maintained complete power ever since.

And when Ike saw all the telegrams that flooded in, he said like Nixon but of Nixon, "we're keeping the dog."

At 1:09 it skips a huge part of the speech

[AlphanotOmega]

Checkers is the name of the dog they got from that one guy who mailed it to them. like around 7:56

[IIIIemperorIIII]

When does he talk about checkers?

[rolomail]

Any truth in the claim that Mr. Nixon ran this speech by Prescott Bush before giving it? Amazing film.
