The contradictions in his character are revealed early, in the vicious campaign against Helen G …ahagan Douglas and the oddly masochistic Checkers speech.

It is only when safely in office, running far ahead in the polls for the 1972 presidential election, that his growing paranoia comes to full flower, triggering the Watergate scandal. (Read More)
