One thing that is quite interesting for anyone who reads Nixon's bio is that his working class background and relative class-consciousness don't seem to fit him in very well with the rest of his party. Change a few things, and he quite very well could have been radicalized in his youth or during college.
So what if he had? So what happens if Nixon joins some radical left movement. Obviously he's not going to become president or anything else like that. So what else would change.
