Richard Nixon (Altermerica)

Richard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 - April 22, 1994) was an American politician who served as the 36th President of the United States from 1973 to 1981. He had previously served as the 35th Vice President of the United States under the Eisenhower administration and served in both houses of Congress representing his home state of California. Nixon is, to date, the only native Californian to be vice president and the first of which to be elected president.

Nixon was elected president in a landslide victory over Robert F. Kennedy in 1972, thus ending the 12-year "Kennedy dynasty". He served for two terms, presiding over the ruling of Roe v. Wade, the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, and America's bicentennial.
