Nixon Foundation Launches New Nixon Blog

Goal: stir up servings of RN policy, politics and culture

 
 
February 18, 2008

 

With an eye on the upcoming Presidential elections and the nation's dramatically growing interest in politics and government, the Richard Nixon Library & Birthplace Foundation will introduce its own blog, The New Nixon, at 9:00 am on Presidents' Day, Monday, February 18.
 
Noted commentators including Hugh Hewitt, KRLA talk show host and former White House staffer; Jack J. Pitney, Claremont McKenna College Professor of American Politics; and John H. Taylor, executive director of the Nixon Foundation, will be among the inaugural bloggers.  
 
"Forty years ago, the new Nixon became a catch phrase as the former Vice President prepared to enter primaries," said Taylor.  "Some derided him as, 'supposedly new Nixon," others around the candidate himself took up the concept of a new Nixon as someone having served eight years as Vice President and traveled the world interacting with leaders as he prepared for his run in 1968."
 
RN won in 1968, becoming America's 37th President.
 
Nixon fans and critics alike are invited to offer feedback to the blogger's commentary on RN politics, culture and policy --  all with a Nixon spin.  "Those who participate in the dialogue on The New Nixon blog will themselves be part of creating the next new Nixon, the nuanced new Nixon," Taylor predicted.
