| | The Imperial Presidency and Watergate: President Nixon's Grab for Power |
 | | Faced with the determination of Congress and the courts, Nixon tried to find someone to become the scapegoat, someone to admit that all these criminal activities were their fault and no one else's. | | | "Watergate" is now an all-encompassing term used to refer to: | | | With this pardon, Nixon would not be tried and forced to go to jail for the crimes he committed. |

| | According to Colodny and Gettlin, then, the real motive behind the Watergate break-ins was considerably less conspiratorial (but a lot more steamy) than presidentially authorized blackmail or political counterintelligence. | | | Theorists as disparate as the late H. Haldeman (Nixon's chief of staff) and left-wing critic Carl Oglesby have endorsed another version of the Trap theory. | | | Apparently, at the DNC offices there was a file containing pictures and vital stats of the prostitutes, for marketing purposes. |

| | Anyone who needs to be reminded that Watergate was more than a "third-rate burglary" should read Emery's retelling of the scandal that drove Nixon from office. | | | Unlike much of the psychopersonal material that has come out on Nixon, Emery's book focuses on the tough political problems, documenting the need for impeachment and ultimately endorsing it. | | | And, as far as I know, most historians agree that Nixon did not know about it in advance. |

| | The Woodward and Bernstein Watergate Papers |
| | Beginning with the investigation of a "third-rate burglary" of the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate complex, Woodward and Bernstein uncovered a system of political "dirty tricks" and crimes that eventually led to indictments of forty White House and administration officials, and ultimately to the resignation of President Richard Nixon. | | | These materials document Woodward and Bernstein's four-year partnership telling the story of Watergate in Pulitzer Prize winning articles for The Washington Post, in two best-selling books, All The President's Men and The Final Days, and in the multiple academy award-winning movie of All the President's Men. | | | Now available to the public for the first time are Woodward and Bernstein's notes from source interviews, drafts of newspaper stories and books, memos, letters, tape recordings, research materials, and other Watergate papers. |
