Nixon thought he was above the law
Someone who knew nothing about Richard Nixon would conclude, after reading the Jan. 11 Style article "To Nixon's friends, his legacy is clear," that this was an honorable and good man who was unjustly persecuted by his political enemies. That was certainly what the paranoid Nixon thought, himself — he had an enemies list to prove it. But it was Nixon, not his "persecutors," who stained American history. It is understandable that Nixon's friends and families have nice things to say about the man, and I respect their personal feelings. For the rest of us, however, the facts are clear.
