I was at a Joni Mitchell concert when Nixon resigned on August 8, 1974. She relayed the news to the audience at the Pine Knob Music Theater outside of Detroit and the place went bonkers.

I recently read, "When the Center Held" by Donald Rumsfeld about the Gerald Ford Presidency. I'm not a fan of Rumsfeld, but I though in the interests of looking back on those times I would get an insiders view of President Ford. And I have to say, I came away thinking that President Ford was a pretty decent guy, a good human being. I've been to the Gerald Ford Museum in Grand Rapids, MI and after that visit I was leaning that way before reading the book. He also gives a view of a very conniving Richard Nixon.

what a great memory
I was in High School in 1974 and I would wear a 6" diameter button proclaiming "Nixon's the One" Irony in its fullest expression.
