As a presidential candidate in 1968, Nixon personally ordered his staff to undermine efforts to end the Vietnam War so that his own promise to end the war if elected would be more appealing to voters and would give him an edge in the election.

This single act of treachery alone resulted in the needless deaths of more than 20,000 Americans and the wounding of tens of thousands of others--plus the preventable deaths of hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese, Cambodians, and Laotians.

Oh please. His opposition to attempts to set up of talks with pie-in-the-sky goals which were tried later and failed are no indication that he was an evil Machiavellian out to kill America soldiers. Hindsight's 20/20. There are always diplomatic debates about how best to go to the negotiating table. This is a very biased and selective analysis. It's no reflection on Nixon's success in foreign policy. The man ended up being a great president in retrospect.

^^^^^^^^BULLSHIT!!!!!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Its called treason! And he knew it! Hence Watergate!!!!! DUH!!!!!
