Nixon stepped down in 1974, halfway through his second term, rather than face impeachment over his efforts to cover up illegal activities by members of his administration in the Watergate scandal. A former Republican congressman and U.S. senator from California, he served two terms as vice president under Dwight Eisenhower]]> 2016-09-15 18:40:34 UTC https://padlet.com/gaineytaylorj/ouagi36eyd5w/wish/124179175 gaineytaylorj https://padlet.com/gaineytaylorj/ouagi36eyd5w/wish/124180344 Only if you have been in the deepest valley, can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.

I ask you to share with me today the majesty of this moment. In the orderly transfer of power, we celebrate the unity that keeps us free.

Each moment in history is a fleeting time, precious and unique. But some stand out as moments of beginning, in which courses are set that shape decades or centuries.
This can be such a moment.

Forces now are converging that make possible, for the first time, the hope that many of man's deepest aspirations can at last be realized. The spiraling pace of change allows us to contemplate, within our own lifetime, advances that once would have taken centuries.]]> 2016-09-16 19:20:49 UTC https://padlet.com/gaineytaylorj/ouagi36eyd5w/wish/124469931
