Newspapers that are truly independent, like The Washington Post, can still aggressively investigate anyone or anything with no holds barred.

It would seem that the Watergate story from beginning to end could be used as a primer on the American political system.

I suspect there have been a number of conspiracies that never were described or leaked out. But I suspect none of the magnitude and sweep of Watergate.

Not a season passes without new disclosures showing Nixon's numerous attempts at criminal use of his presidential powers and in fact the scorn he held for the rule of law.

Watergate is not the sort of issue that changes the vote. I don't know anyone who has changed their vote because of it.

There is a garbage culture out there, where we pour garbage on people. Then the pollsters run around and take a poll and say, do you smell anything?
