Richard M. Nixon gives his inaugural address as the 37th president of the United States in front of the Capitol in Washington, D.C., Jan. 20, 1969. Watch his full remarks.
And violated laws, killed millions of innocent people through bombing, interfered in peace negotiations that might have ended the Vietnam War much earlier strictly for partisan purposes, was involved in overthrowing freely elected governments. . If you call that projecting strength and confidence, well, I have to disagree. I agree he did some good things, but that's not the kind of leadership I think we need.
@@marcschneider4845 I'm not saying I disagree, but it is possible to project strength and confidence in doing wrong. Sometimes even more so in doing wrong can people be assured that what they are doing is right. The world is a cruel place, and Nixon was crushed in it for his wrongs.
This was the first presidential inauguration to be broadcast in color on *all three networks* (JFK’s and LBJ’s were in color...but only if you were watching on NBC).
This is the 12th of 100 speeches that I'm watching to make research on public speaking. Now my goal is to get through all the inaugural addresses of the American presidents and rank them according to my own criteria. Mostly, I just rely on my intuition without doing any critical analysis of the speeches. I don't have a lot of time to process all the information, so if I like how this or that president looks and sounds I rank him high. All political rhetoric, words, and phrases play the second role in my evaluation, though I pay attention to the content to figure out mental states that were predominant among folks of those times. Nixon has a good melodic voice, a steady pace, and clearly articulates everything he says. I find pleasure in listening to him, even though most of what he says doesn't make any sense. Just beautiful words with no meaning to entertain the crowd. By the way, an old woman blowing her nose in the background at the moment when Nixon proclaims, "We see the hope of tomorrow in the youth of today," was marvelously surreal and made me experience unity with humanity through a burst of intense laughter.
Where can we see your published ranking? I'm going through all of the recorded inaugural addresses out of personal interest. What other speeches were on your list?

@@OliverdeClisson That part of history is something that should be looked pleasantly on. It showed that in terms of crisis, there was a time where both parties could unite and work together not for a party, but for the nation. Unfortunately the Republicans today could not set aside their party differences and work for the country against Trump though, this part of history is something that should be looked down upon.
"We shall plan now for the day when our wealth can be transferred from the destruction of war abroad, to the urgent needs of our people at home." Half a century later, that day is still nowhere in sight.
the old lady sitting behind nixon looks like she was old enough to be born in the 1800s, you know that in order to really know somebody who lived in the 19th century, and for that person to be old enough to really experience life in that period in any meaningful way, lets say they'd have to be born in 1890, if they live until they were 80, they died in 1970, so to really get to know them you'd have to be born around 1960 so if you are much under the age of 60, you really didn't know anybody from the 1800s
History continues to be kinder and kinder to this man. He was a talented leader. Compared to the presidents of the last just over quarter century, his scandal was miniscule. I feel terrible for how he was treated by the media going back to the early 1950's.
A wonderful and inspiring inaugural address. Such a contrast to the loathsome, invective ridden screed by the 45th president on January 20, 2017. Compared to Trump, Richard Nixon was a giant among men, and presidents.

A true giant of the 20t century.. a great and flawed man one of the greatest men who ever held the office of the presidency .. but for all his greatness all his brilliance he could never silence his demons .

It is very sincere and meaningful and powerful;expressing a lot of hope and optimism for the future. I realise that there have been problems with his presidency,leading to his resignation, but he started well.
More than 50 years passed since this speech, yet the issues we face today are the same ones Nixon addressed. Same conflicts and troubles expressed in different form. We yearn for peace yet are stuck in wars, we crave unity yet we are divided as never before, we are surrounded by material riches but are of poor spirits.

Taking away Watergate, I think Nixon is a decent president, especially he became the first one to win all but one state in 1972. Reagan soon joined him in doing that 12 years later.
