Nixon vs Hillary

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Plus on Foreign Policy Nixon way better. I mean Nixon was able to go to China which was a brilliant move which was one of the major reasons the Soviets fell, and unlike Hillary policies will he didnt make the situation in vietnam worse

No, he just prolonged the war unnecessarily.

I'm one of those who are willing to defend some aspects of Nixon's policy (most notably the detente), but this implication is just silly.

Tricky Dick.

He is preferable to Crooked Hillary.

Had he not become involved in Watergate, he would have gone down in history as one of the truly great Presidents.

At this point in time, we do not yet know the full extent or the full implications of the Hillary e-mail issue or of the Clinton Foundation potential involvement in corruption and scandal.

Again, I've been opposing black-or-white view on the Nixon presidency on this forum for years, but let's not kid ourselves: Watergate was not the only thing that went terribly wrong.

Nixon would probably be a moderate Democrat today

No.

Well, still an improvement from "Nixon was more liberal than Obama" meme.

Let's review-
Pro-Choice

I wouldn't really describe Nixon as "pro-choice". All he did was to say, in private mind you, that it's "sometimes necessary" in situations like child being of a mixed race (which is quite an awful outlook).

Also, when we're talking about economy, Nixon may indeed be closer to something like a British "post-war consensus" (that is until Thatcherite takeover over Tory party), but that doesn't make him "liberal". It wasn't uncommon for mainstream conservatives in the 50s, 60s and 70s to be more "interventionist" than their ideological descendants.
