I believe that Nixon was not a crook but I guess that depends on how you
define "crook".  He never stole anything that I know of.

He DID act stupidly and unlawfully but I think that Nixon thought, in his
own somewhat perverted way of viewing things, that he was really doing the
best thing for the country and the presidency.  He was wrong, mind you, but
I don't think he did what he did for personal gain.

I also feel that history will be much kinder to him than his contemporaries.
He wasn't all that bad.

But he did get caught!
