Pretty much, yeah. There are some who still think that if they mobilize they will change the outcome of the elections.
I am not one of them.

In his eulogy at the State Funeral Service on April 27, Senator Bob Dole said, "I believe that the second half of the twentieth century will be known as the 'Age of Nixon. Why was he the most durable figure of our time? Not because he gave the most eloquent speeches, but because he always embodied the deepest feelings of the people he led. One of his biographers said that Richard Nixon was ' One of Us! And so he was."
President Nixon was laid to rest next to his First Lady only steps from the home in which he was born, now on the Nixon Library grounds.

Well, it's a eulogy... He is not remembered well in general. Certainly not as an age definer.

Well, in that case who is "well remembered" Every president has supporters and haters. For example Reagan was the best ever for conservatives but not so for liberals. FDR, too, depends on who you ask.
For me Nixon was one of the best.

Cuba is more intelligent, thus car engine is washing machine, etc or Africa took much better unskilled reader had been able to repair a car in their "tools", we call a junk, but we can't do the same to get a car works well..
American IQ test is a laughable, when my deaf guy got 150 IQ, his working.. What in there forced test by law, if you want to get a job..
Norway! Psychologist test..
Yesterday I tried mensa, I got 114.. So We're more brainy than Nixon.. How? An example century and age.. I tell you about century, if some born 1960 means 100, and 10 years after 90, but another born 1970 with 100. Why? Different technology, etc when computer or iPhone.. What older age is starting a decrease.. But born 1960 develops extra IQ.. So he's 100 in 1970.. Ok Nixon is dead, thus 0 IQ.. And +14 grew to us..

Nixon was a crook but admittedly a very talented public speaker and politician. If Ford didn't pardon him, things likely would have gotten even worse for him.
Then in 1976 there was Jimmy Carter, who was a nice guy and also seemed to have no idea how to be a politician. Like, when the US was getting embargoed by OPEC as a result of its policy on Israel, and when inflation was very high, and when some gas stations literally had to close because they had no fuel, Carter started saying things like, "We should be wearing sweaters inside to reduce fuel usage." He also talked very openly about how people in general should live more modestly and that there wasn't a clear and easy path to fix inflation. So yeah, he didn't last very long lol.
Correct way to be president and get reelected: more more more, always more.

Some Republicans that I've encountered said Nixon was a RINO (republican in name only) because he was much too liberal.
Then there are some who really liked his foreign policy and say that he almost single-handedly ended the Cold War.
Lastly, one of my online friends said that Nixon was a liberal, but a good liberal, unlike those from today. And that people care about the third-rate burglary at Watergate too much.

This made me laugh a bit ...sorry. You know at what time around the so called "cold war" ended?...He was still alive that time, true...but others were in charge....and I am not sure it was mostly work of the USA which ended this cold war....speaking of Gorbatchov...
