Political Cartoons
NIXON AND WATERGATEDuring 1972, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger pulled off an amazing political coup when they revealed their secret negotiations with China. The first president to ever visit Communist China, Nixon should have been a hero. Instead, his legacy was tainted by the Watergate scandal and all of its revelations.
Richard Nixon made obvious mistakes - resulting in his resignation on the 9th of August, 1974 (and the inauguration of Gerald Ford on the same day) - but he was not the only American president to be skewered by Herb Block's pen. Let's examine a few more targets.
