Classic Nixon from that era. He really did reinvent himself and had a very good mind. Incidentally, I looked it up- Washington defeated Buffalo in the 1992 Super Bowl so he was right on that too. PS: I’m glad this was uploaded with original ads intact. Notable by its absence is the complete lack of prescription pharmaceutical ads. Such ads were still banned, and probably should have stayed that way
He probably was the most knowledgeable president that there ever was. All presidents that followed him would bring him to the White House and ask his opinion about a situation. Carter, Reagan and Bush would sneak him into the White House so that no one knew he came there. Clinton did not do that, he would bring him through the front door befitting an x president with a formal presidential greeting and meal afterwards.
Nixon was definitely a knowledgeable person who knew how to get things done, if he wasn't so corrupt he would probably be seen today as a great president
@@PhishyMomentsI view him as a great President. He is not that corrupt. Think of politics since 1992….not just presidential…he just happened to be one of the first who got caught.
Yep, to his everlasting credit, President Clinton did do that which was a bit controversial. He also did a good speech/eulogy at President Nixon's funeral. Other strengths and weaknesses aside as well as policy differences, I always thought Nixon and Clinton were at the top of the heap in terms of sheer intellect.
@@PhishyMoments You are delusional if you believe Nixon was one of the most corrupt. Dude got caught because the Press went out of their way to get him. Whereas the Press plays defense for others. I won't name names.
Larry got everyone on his show and he interviewed them all. He made all his guests always feel comfortable with his style and they all knew they would get a fair shake. Some would not talk to other big interviewers but everyone would sit with Larry.
Larry actually was supposed to get Nixon for a third time in April 1994 to promote his new book, Beyond Peace, but Nixon suffered his fatal stroke right before he was scheduled to appear.
Come on, he interviewed Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Mandela, De Klerk, and you're suprised he "landed" Nixon? Of course Nixon was there to sell his book. Nixon "landed" a Larry King interview.
Just about everybody was happy to go on Larry's show as he had a knack for making each guest feel comfortable and then have them open up and speak their mind.
I'd like to hear Kissinger debate Nixon about tiananmen square. He said "most countries might have done that if so many people had blocked the industrial sector for 8 weeks"
23:57, I'm watching this in 2023, broadcast 31 years ago. President Nixon knew what he was talking about. I wonder what he would think of his Republican party today. It has become too extreme, even crazy.
I don't think the Democratic party is crazier. They did not storm our capitol, try to stop a peaceful transfer of power, support Putin and Russia over America, and take GOD GIVEN FREEDOM away from the women of America to choose what to do with their own body. That is ALL Trump and the Republican party today in 2024. Do any of you have a response to that???🎤
Unlike Biden though, Nixon wasn't under the beck and call of the American people. I do think Nixon would've been a better president at that advanced age than Biden.

Interviews like this showed Nixon at his best. Brilliant analytical mind.
I wrote him a letter once and he wrote back.
What did he say?????
King or Nixon ?
@@stevenperren1678 I'm pretty sure he means Nixon 🤦♂️
“I’m not a crook.”
He Said TRUMP will MAGA in 2024-2028
If anyone wants to get some knowledge then listen to this man..

I very much agree..the two had alot in common@@bowtieguy377
Nixon seems so relaxed here.
Give some credit to Larry K. for that. He had a knack for doing so and Nixon was not found of interviews but had no problem on Larry's show.
never knew larry landed a nixon interview .. twice ? he's even more boss now in my eyes lol

Richard Nixon was a very intelligent person!
9:54 - and that’s the last time we ever heard about clinton(!) 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have a picture of Larry King and my father! From what I can gather, Mr. King was kind and cordial to everyone he met... .
Just about everybody was happy to go on Larry's show as he had a knack for making each guest feel comfortable and then have them open up and speak their mind.
The world seemed slightly more serious, pragmatic, and less ideological 30yrs ago.
Ideology was a course word 30 years ago..
Yeah but is he better than Biden or Trump in golf?
Nixon made his mistakes - there is no doubt about that. But he was a wise man. 79 years old and still sharp as ever!
He was intelligent! He did mistake, but he was not con at all. Because he wanted to do more, he did overstep the boundary.
Nixon didn't need to break in DNC HQ....He easily won in 72..IDIOT...
2:31, Funny comment by President Nixon😂
always a pleasure to listen to President Nixon speak
This aired a few weeks before I was born lol
I was pounding booty
Nixon at 79 was still sharp as ever.
Absolutely brilliant! I always found it amusing that he always mispronounced Boris Yeltsin's name. Sadly,he would be gone two years later.
I'd like to hear Kissinger debate Nixon about tiananmen square. He said "most countries might have done that if so many people had blocked the industrial sector for 8 weeks"
Larry is so cute, his upper lip when he talks. He’s so cute. Nixon was as cool as his name.
23:57, I'm watching this in 2023, broadcast 31 years ago. President Nixon knew what he was talking about. I wonder what he would think of his Republican party today. It has become too extreme, even crazy.
Nixon would look at the Democrat party as being WAY crazier. Which it is
i don't know about that. What Democratic President was an insurrectionist? When has the Democratic party stormed our capitol?🎤
Yea cause the far left is a shining beacon of intelligence and sanity. I dont mean people on the left, but I am talking far left
I don't think the Democratic party is crazier. They did not storm our capitol, try to stop a peaceful transfer of power, support Putin and Russia over America, and take GOD GIVEN FREEDOM away from the women of America to choose what to do with their own body. That is ALL Trump and the Republican party today in 2024. Do any of you have a response to that???🎤
I guess not🎤
My favorite President
Never knew Ike had to go under an antiseptic
*anaesthetic
2 more years to age 81
"it's an optimum time for Israel to make a deal."
🇺🇲✌🏻🧓🏻✌🏻🇺🇸
Biden is around the same age as Nixon here. Have a think about that one
Holy shit
No matter what anyone thinks, at least Nixon had all his marbles
Not much to think about
Unlike Biden though, Nixon wasn't under the beck and call of the American people. I do think Nixon would've been a better president at that advanced age than Biden.
Nixon is a setious, but a nice man who understood how foreign policy works
Richard Nixon was not a "nice" man!
*V.P.* Quayle saved the nation.
Where and when? Good joke.
