So you should love his intellectual and policy legacy, Mr Al Gore!!!
And Nixon was a great liberal, a radical liberal in some regards:
Price controls to control inflation (so radically far left, no one on
the left even dares suggest it today.)
Abolished the gold standard (the core of conservative economics for
two + centures)
Establishing the Environmental Protection Agancy
Created the Consumer Product Safety Commission
Ending American fighting in Viet Nam
Established and extended revenue sharing to the states
Ended the draft
Opened up China
Treaty to limit strategic nuclear weapons
Created Detente with USSR
Negotiated disengagement agreements between Israel and its opponents,
Egypt and Syria
Almost endorsed full national decriminalization of marijuana
(watergate got in the way).
I don't think any domcratic president has come close to accomplishing
-- much less proposing -- the breadth and depth of such wide ranging
liberal agenda.
