August 9, 1974

On this day 45 years ago, President RICHARD MILHOUS NIXON abdicated.  It was a great day for America, and a great day for the Rule of Law.  We SHALL overcome!

I was 17.5 and watched from a portable tv with my mom in her office at Camden County College.  

Before August ended, I would be starting a new adventure as a Georgetown University freshman and intern in the office of Senator Ted Kennedy. Best. Senator. Ever.
