but at the heart of this lay this sense that nixon's amoralism lay outside of american political traditions, outside, as jimmy carter might have put it, the enduring american values. the unfortunate outcome, as i think many moderate analysts of nixon's presidency might say, was to throw into very deep disrepute any reasoned sense of national limits and interests that might have served the united states well at many points across american history. but especially during the era since 1945. the real tragedy, to put it differently, of the hate surrounding nixon may be the sheer difficulty ever since of resurrecting fundamentally sound policy ideas that sat at the core of nixon's presidency, so encrusted have those ideas become in the reputation of the 37th president. so i will stop there, jeff, and turn it back over you to. >> thank you, mark, always fascinating. needless to say we never have as much time for discussion as we want so i'm going to start us out with what i call a semi speed round. i'll ask a question to the group and feel free to answer if you think it's pertinent to your president. and after that
