Richard Nixon's Vice President, Spiro Agnew, had a long history of alleged corruption even before he was brought down in 1973 and forced to resign. Democrats and journalists alike accused Agnew of the very behavior that lead to his downfall, but never had any substantial proof. So let's say, some time after he's chosen as Nixon's running mate for 1968 (but before the election), undeniable proof of bribes he received during his time as Governor of Maryland (and as Baltimore County Executive) comes out. How this happens is not particularly important, but what happens next is. Does Nixon choose to keep him on the ticket? Assuming he doesn't, who replaces Agnew? What impact does this scandal have on the election, and could it prevent Nixon from winning in November?
