Richard Nixon

1914 – 1994 CE

Corrupt and immoral yet brilliant and accomplished politician

Thoroughly corrupt, immoral, and self-serving politician; yet, brilliant and accomplished, Nixon created the EPA, ended the draft and the Viet Nam war, opened diplomatic relations with China, began the Endangered Species Act and the War on Cancer, restarted the Middle East peace process, and initiated the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty with the Soviet Union—an impressive list but short compared to his list of scandals, lies, and corruption.

“In a decade marked by an unpopular war and the Watergate scandal, Richard Nixon seemed to offer a foreboding look at the generation he served. His own selfish ambitions drove decisions that were at best unethical and at worst illegal.”

Simon Sinek 1973 CE –
