Dallek is an obfuscator of true history. Kissinger was *appointed* to Nixon's team by the Rockefellers, which sponsored the former's entire career outside of academia. Nixon saw a wider insidious threat behind Kissinger, and went head to head with him but lost. The US is run by an aristocracy of private interests that removed John Kennedy in one way, while removing Nixon in another way, thereby sending messages to future presidents not to attempt what Andrew Jackson did in the 19th Century.
I've never heard of ForaTv until this video. It would be nice if someone bundeled up all the good political shows (pbs stuff...the history channels...and so on) into one playlist. I wish someone would do the same with magazines like the Economist and Businessweek.
My grandfather ran into Nixon sitting by himself in a nice Texas bar in 1967. They struck up a converstation for thirty minutes. He said they got along well. I wrote the Nixon library (after he passed) and told them the details, but the response was somewhat cold. As if they did not think too highly about RMN.
