Eli Lasley - The Presidents Calling

I chose to listen to President Nixon Addressing Nation Regarding Scandal, which was known as the Watergate Affair. I thought this tape exemplifies the humility that President Nixon had to experience when he discovered that several of his closest associates, including the attorney general. Nixon's carefully picked vocabulary and humble tone highlighted his determination to remove all who were involved with the Watergate Affair, and to see that justice is served. The Watergate Affair consisted of several of President Nixon's associates tapping phones and stealing precious documents and records. All of these crimes were committed covertly and had created a sense of uncertainty not only within the government, but within our nation as well.
