DescriptionThis campaign button was produced for Richard M. Nixon who served as the 37th President of the United States. Nixon served one full term and resigned during his second term in 1974 after audio tapes confirmed his involvement in Watergate, a plot to break into his political opponent's office to steal important documents. Nixon is an important president in American history, as he is remembered for his administration's involvement in the Vietnam War, being the only president to resign and serving during the first moon landing in 1969. The button is mostly white and blue with blue and red text. Text reads "President / Nixon./ Now more / than ever."On View
