Bravo PBS! [View all]

PBS (in my area) aired American Experience, Nixon
This three-hour program explores a fateful mix of strength and weakness that made him president,
and then brought him down.
Oh How History Repeats Itself...
It didn't work for Nixon,
It's Not going to work for you either, Don!
