53 years later and folks are still trying to figure out why Watergate?

[Scott Kaiser]

I agree that Baker is too preoccupied with blaming the Bushes for everything, though Family of Secrets is still a good book.

I think that Watergate, like the JFK assassination, on the surface appears to be only about Cuba. But with both JFK and Nixon there were many hardliners (not just in the CIA) unhappy with their foreign policies and wanting them removed from office. Spiro Agnew would have been a much more hardline President if his past scandals hadn't caught up with him.

I concur with everything Tracy says, and no Dawn, I have not read his book, I'm sure it's quite fascinating, I said what I've said only because it was of my opinion that Baker seems to be preoccupied with blaming the Bushes for everything. I am using Tracy's words who puts it more eloquently than I could.
