Didn't Nixon and Clinton get to be quite close in his first year in the White House? With Nixon still alive, it would be interesting to see what he does during the Clinton impeachment effort.
I think the POD would have to be prolonging Pat's (who was a heavy smoker) lifespan. Nixon died shortly after her.
Maybe Dick has a heartfelt and truly honest conversation about her quitting smoking after her stroke in 1976.I think the POD would have to be prolonging Pat's (who was a heavy smoker) lifespan. Nixon died shortly after her.
I think he would've liked Dubya pre 9/11. After that and especially after the invasion of Iraq, I agree he wouldn't think too highly of him.I definitely don't see Nixon thinking too highly of Bush Jr.

I can picture Nixon calling W a "incoherent nincompoop" in an interview. Keeping him from being elected or seriously hurting his chances for reelection.

Considering how GW's blind date with Tricia went, I seriously doubt Dick was left with a good impression...
I would argue that the Iraq War is far less likely to happen in this scenario with a longer living Nixon
If you like coke head alcoholic deserters...FWIW, 60s Bush sounds like a good time.
