Richard Nixon: Rise from Poverty
Richard Nixon's rise from poverty to the Presidency.
To understand Watergate, to understand the fall of Nixon, you need to look first at the rise. How the turbulence of his sky rocketing career left bruises and bitternesses that lingered. Don's guest today is Professor Nicole Hemmer whose latest book is "Partisans: The Conservative Revolutionaries Who Remade American Politics in the 1990s". She takes Don on a journey into the psychology and politics of the most fascinating President of them all.
Produced by Freddy Chick. Edited by Aidan Lonergan. Senior Producer was Charlotte Long.
