<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><em><strong>"I am America. I'm a winner who lost every battle, up to and including the war. I am not the American nightmare. I am the American Dream. Period. That's why the system works. Because I am the system. Period."</strong></em></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>The Life, Times, & Cinema of Richard Milhous Nixon - 37th President of the United States</strong></span></p> <p>On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Mr. Chavez & I finish out our examination of Presidential Politics with a look at The Life & Times of Richard Milhous Nixon. The Vietnam War, The Watergate Scandal, and the subsequent resignation of the 37th president. There's a great deal to talk about and there are numerous parallels to our current political environment. This week we focus on Oliver Stone's <strong><em>Nixon</em></strong> (1995), Alan J. Pakula's <strong><em>All the President's Men</em></strong> (1976), and - finally - Robert Altman's <strong><em>Secret Honor</em></strong> (1984). Three great films that beautifully and powerfully capture the controversy, struggles, and nuances of Richard Nixon.</p> <p>Take a listen and let us know what you think.
