Nixon Says Good bye

The first impression of the photo that I got from Nixon leaving was that he looks very happy to leave the white house. After watching the video and reading the article of the Watergate scandal. I was not surprised, the government always does things like that. The sad thing about it is that he did it for the wrong reasons. He violated the constitution because he felt threatened by his political opponent. That is truly a sad reason and they got caught which was even more disturbing. On the question of "How does Nixon's speech try to convince you of his argument of not being a quitter?" I was not able to watch this video but as for the how the scandal reshaping our idea of the government. My idea was already distorted because of other incidents but being in your class has open my mind to other out comes that can happen if we stand up for our rights as a group. In order to make a change in our community, if we know that something is not right, all we have to do is bring it to our communities attention and write petitions, with the added foot work there is nothing that can get in our way except for ourselves by lack of motivation.
