Nixon by Nixon (HBO Documentary)

From HBO:

This revealing documentary looks at the many different sides of Richard Nixon, one of our most complex presidents, through thousands of hours of recently declassified audiotapes recorded in the Nixon White House.

So, I watched "Nixon by Nixon" yesterday evening.
Very interesting stuff. I recommend it for all of you.
The filmmakers do a really good job of showing the contrast of what was told to the American people and what was really going on.
There are instances of official press releases, completely contradicting what his/the white house's true intent was.
His conversations with Kissinger and his press secretary are very entertaining.
Again, cool documentary, not long, very entertaining and I recommend it to all of you.

Hey TOPCAT,
I just watched it too.
I think everyone should see this....at least anyone who still believes that the leaders of our countries care about us little people. (They don't.)
A real eye opener for sure.

Yep. I thought so too. It was soo funny how he was always swearing. His conversations about how watergate would not be remembered, ect. It's a fun watch, even if your not a history buff
I think it is very interesting that these tapes took this long to be declassified.
