Richard Dreyfuss, when we were doing 'American Graffiti,' was pumping me to vote for McGovern. But I think I wound up going for Nixon. I thought he could get us out of the Vietnam War quickly. Ha.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
During the 1960 election, I saw Richard Nixon as the winner.
That was my choice at that time, and I still say Nixon was a great president. A very beautiful and wise man.
George McGovern - and I campaigned very hard for his election - was not, in the summer of 1971, a strong feminist ally. But he did come around.
I liked Nixon fine, but Nixon was not a partier.
I was never for Richard Nixon until Watergate.
I have tender feelings for Nixon because everybody has warm feelings about their childhood. Actually, I didn't like the Watergate trials 'cause they interrupted 'The Munsters.'
Of all the men that have run for president in the twentieth century, only George McGovern truly understood what a monument America could be to the human race.
When I was younger, I thought of myself as a Nixon Republican because he was the anti-Communist.
Richard Nixon had a kind of Walter Mitty fantasy life. He was a man with a grandiose thoughts: dreams of not simply being president but maybe becoming one of the truly great presidents of American history.
I would have to say that Richard Nixon is probably the most gifted and skilled political practitioner, in his pre-presidential years, of all of the American presidents in the 20th century.
