Richard Nixon secretly helped Reagan pick a lot of his cabinet in memos sent to the candidate and then President-elect, for example, Haig as Secretary of State and Schultz were picked because Nixon heavily suggested them. A lot of other Nixon people were picked by Reagan at Nixon's suggestion--Even after Watergate, Reagan still respected Nixon.
The one suggestion Reagan didn't take was Nixon's suggestion of taking Henry Kissinger on as Secretary of State.
Let's say he had done so, and Kissinger served as Secretary of State under Reagan from 1981-1989.
How might our foreign policy have looked with Reagan/Kissinger running it in the '80s?
