Barack Obama

When he called himself "a skinny kid with a funny name" at the 2004 democratic national convention, his political star was already on the rise.

Nixon: A Presidency Revealed

Imbued with both remarkable triumph and unprecedented scandal, the legacy of Richard Milhous Nixon is one of the most complex and enduring of all former U.S. Presidents. In this feature-length special, we take a fresh look at one of America'?s most controversial leaders more than thirty years after his infamous resignation. Drawing on previously unseen footage and only recently released audio tapes, NIXON: A PRESIDENCY REVEALED sheds new light on the man who brought both progress and shame to the presidential office. Some of his greatest achievements included ending U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War; forging historic peacekeeping relations with the Soviet Union, China, and the Middle East; and implementing innovative social and environmental initiatives at home. However, Nixon'?s accomplishments were ultimately overshadowed by his secrecy, lies, and gross abuse of power, which undermined America?'s faith in the integrity of the presidency.
