Why It MattersDuring the 1960s and 1970s the American peoplersquos view of the nation and the govern-

ment changed Some believed that the United States had lost its position as the economicand political leader of the free world Yet the American system of constitutional govern-

ment worked and survived

The Impact TodayToday many Americans continue to express doubts about the political system Mistrust of

politicians especially ldquoWashington insidersrdquo has reduced voter turnout in elections It hasalso spurred the creation of political movements outside the two major parties

To improve relations with the Communist world President Richard Nixon made a historic visit to China in February 1972 Nixon later described how he felt upon hisarrival in Beijing the Chinese capital ldquo lsquoThe Star Spangled Bannerrsquo had neversounded so stirring to me as on that windswept runway in the heart of CommunistChina As we left the airport [Chinese leader Zhou Enlai] said lsquoYour handshakecame over the vastest ocean in the worldmdashtwenty-five years of no communicationrsquo rdquo

Easing the Cold WarIn his Inaugural Address on January 20 1969 President Richard M Nixon

told the American people ldquoThe greatest honor is the title of peacemakerrdquoMany Americans wondered whether Nixon fit the role of peacemaker Duringhis years in Congress he had gained a reputation as a fierce enemy of commu-nism Few people imagined that Nixon the anti-Communist crusader wouldintroduce policies to improve Americarsquos relations with the Communist world

History

Behind the Iron CurtainPresident Nixon intended to leave his mark

on foreign policy He hoped to build a more sta-ble peaceful world by reaching out to the SovietUnion and the Peoplersquos Republic of China Inthe summer of 1969 Nixon visited several coun-tries including Romaniamdashthe first time anAmerican president had gone behind the ironcurtain Nixon wanted to find areas of commoninterest and cooperation with these Cold Waropponents

DeacutetenteTo help him in this task Nixon appointed

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ldquoif we have a strong healthy United StatesEurope Soviet Union China Japanmdasheach bal-ancing the other not playing one against theotherrdquo

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

The Middle EastPresident Nixonrsquos foreign policy aimed to

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

sands more lived in neighboring Arab statesThe Palestiniansrsquo demand for their own home-land became another source of instability

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

Shuttle DiplomacyPresident Nixon sent Kissinger now secretary

of state to the region to gain the trust of Arableaders and to negotiate some type of agreement

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

To improve relations with the Communist world President Richard Nixon made a historic visit to China in February 1972 Nixon later described how he felt upon hisarrival in Beijing the Chinese capital ldquo lsquoThe Star Spangled Bannerrsquo had neversounded so stirring to me as on that windswept runway in the heart of CommunistChina As we left the airport [Chinese leader Zhou Enlai] said lsquoYour handshakecame over the vastest ocean in the worldmdashtwenty-five years of no communicationrsquo rdquo

Easing the Cold WarIn his Inaugural Address on January 20 1969 President Richard M Nixon

told the American people ldquoThe greatest honor is the title of peacemakerrdquoMany Americans wondered whether Nixon fit the role of peacemaker Duringhis years in Congress he had gained a reputation as a fierce enemy of commu-nism Few people imagined that Nixon the anti-Communist crusader wouldintroduce policies to improve Americarsquos relations with the Communist world

History

Behind the Iron CurtainPresident Nixon intended to leave his mark

on foreign policy He hoped to build a more sta-ble peaceful world by reaching out to the SovietUnion and the Peoplersquos Republic of China Inthe summer of 1969 Nixon visited several coun-tries including Romaniamdashthe first time anAmerican president had gone behind the ironcurtain Nixon wanted to find areas of commoninterest and cooperation with these Cold Waropponents

DeacutetenteTo help him in this task Nixon appointed

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ldquoif we have a strong healthy United StatesEurope Soviet Union China Japanmdasheach bal-ancing the other not playing one against theotherrdquo

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

The Middle EastPresident Nixonrsquos foreign policy aimed to

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

sands more lived in neighboring Arab statesThe Palestiniansrsquo demand for their own home-land became another source of instability

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

Stressing his integrity religious faith and hisstanding as an outsider Carter gathered enoughdelegates to win the Democratic nominationSenator Walter Mondale of Minnesota ran asvice president

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

History

the traditional limousine These gestures symbol-ized Carterrsquos desire to create a more informalpresidency Carter wanted to be seen as an aver-age American

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

History

the traditional limousine These gestures symbol-ized Carterrsquos desire to create a more informalpresidency Carter wanted to be seen as an aver-age American

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

In 1985 WilmaMankiller became theCherokee chief the firstwoman to ever serve as achief of a major NativeAmerican group She oftenfaced opposition but wasreelected and held the topposition for almost tenyears As chief she wasresponsible for 140000people and a 75 million-dollar budget

During her time as theleader of the CherokeeMankiller focused on lowering unemploymentincreasing educationalopportunities andimproving communityhealth care She also created the Institute forCherokee Literacy to pre-serve Cherokee traditionsand culture

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Behind the Iron CurtainPresident Nixon intended to leave his mark

on foreign policy He hoped to build a more sta-ble peaceful world by reaching out to the SovietUnion and the Peoplersquos Republic of China Inthe summer of 1969 Nixon visited several coun-tries including Romaniamdashthe first time anAmerican president had gone behind the ironcurtain Nixon wanted to find areas of commoninterest and cooperation with these Cold Waropponents

DeacutetenteTo help him in this task Nixon appointed

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ldquoif we have a strong healthy United StatesEurope Soviet Union China Japanmdasheach bal-ancing the other not playing one against theotherrdquo

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The Middle EastPresident Nixonrsquos foreign policy aimed to

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

History

Behind the Iron CurtainPresident Nixon intended to leave his mark

on foreign policy He hoped to build a more sta-ble peaceful world by reaching out to the SovietUnion and the Peoplersquos Republic of China Inthe summer of 1969 Nixon visited several coun-tries including Romaniamdashthe first time anAmerican president had gone behind the ironcurtain Nixon wanted to find areas of commoninterest and cooperation with these Cold Waropponents

DeacutetenteTo help him in this task Nixon appointed

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ldquoif we have a strong healthy United StatesEurope Soviet Union China Japanmdasheach bal-ancing the other not playing one against theotherrdquo

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Henry Kissinger (below) helped President Nixon han-dle foreign policy matters Premier Zhou Enlai andPresident Nixon (right) inspect troops during Nixonrsquos1972 visit to China When did the United Statesand China establish full diplomatic relations

History

Behind the Iron CurtainPresident Nixon intended to leave his mark

on foreign policy He hoped to build a more sta-ble peaceful world by reaching out to the SovietUnion and the Peoplersquos Republic of China Inthe summer of 1969 Nixon visited several coun-tries including Romaniamdashthe first time anAmerican president had gone behind the ironcurtain Nixon wanted to find areas of commoninterest and cooperation with these Cold Waropponents

DeacutetenteTo help him in this task Nixon appointed

Henry Kissinger a Harvard University profes-sor as his national security adviser Kissingerand Nixon shared a belief in realpolitikmdashpoliciesbased on national interests rather than politicalideology They believed that peace among

nations would come through negotiation ratherthan through threats or force President Nixonformulated a foreign policy plan of deacutetentemdashattempts at relaxing or easing international ten-sions As deacutetente replaced confrontation theUnited States and Communist states couldbegin working together to resolve issues thatdivided them

Nixon realized that deacutetente would work onlyif a balance of power existed A balance ofpower is a distribution of power among nationsto prevent any one nation from becoming toopowerful ldquoIt will be a safer world and a betterworldrdquo he declared

ldquoif we have a strong healthy United StatesEurope Soviet Union China Japanmdasheach bal-ancing the other not playing one against theotherrdquo

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

sands more lived in neighboring Arab statesThe Palestiniansrsquo demand for their own home-land became another source of instability

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

of state to the region to gain the trust of Arableaders and to negotiate some type of agreement

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The president imposed emergency measuresto conserve oil Nixon also urged Americans toconserve energy voluntarily Congress reducedspeed limits on highways because a vehicleburns less fuel at lower speeds

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

I would say only that if someof my judgments were wrongand some were wrong theywere made in what I believedat the time to be the bestinterest of the nation

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Regularly we went to the hotelto ask for mail from GustavoAlmost always there was a letterwith money but it was many weeksbefore we received the most impor-tant one of all the one that had thepass and the instructions for the tripWe were to take the train to Sacra-mento go to the Hotel Espantildeol andstay there until Gustavo and Joseacutecame for us

And from what I saw in thecoach on that long ride the Ameri-cans were indeed different They atethe repulsive sandwiches with relishThey put their feet shoes and all on

the seats in frontof them Whenthe men laughedit seemed morelike a roar and ifthey were closeby it scared meDontildea Henri-queta frownedand admon-ished me ldquoBecareful I neverhear you braying like thatrdquoMany of them kept their hats on as ifthey didnrsquot know that the inside of a coach was like the inside of ahouse and wearing your hat ineither a sure sign of being mal educado [ill-mannered]

ChinaSince the Communist takeover of China in

1949 the United States had refused to recognizethe Peoplersquos Republic of China the most popu-lated nation on the earth Instead the UnitedStates recognized the anti-Communist Chinesegovernment under Chiang Kai-shek in exile onthe island of Taiwan

By the time Nixon became president how-ever each side had good reasons for wanting toimprove relations China distrusted and fearedthe Soviet Union The United States hoped thatrecognition of China would help end the war inVietnam and drive a deeper wedge between thetwo Communist powers

The winds of change began to blow in the fallof 1970 when Nixon told reporters that hewanted to go to China Noting this change intone the Chinese responded by inviting anAmerican table-tennis team to visit the countryin April 1971 A week later the United Statesannounced the opening of trade with China

ldquoPing-Pong diplomacyrdquo was accompanied bysecret talks between American and Chinese offi-cials about forging closer ties between the twonations After Kissinger made a secret trip toChina in July 1971 President Nixon announcedthat he would visit Beijing the Chinese capitalldquoto seek the normalization of relationsrdquo

In February 1972 Nixon arrived in China for aweek-long visit Nixon and Chinarsquos premierZhou Enlai agreed to allow greater scientific andcultural exchange and to resume trade Although

formal diplomatic relations were not establisheduntil 1979 Nixonrsquos trip marked the first formalcontact with China in more than 25 years

The Soviet UnionNixon followed his history-making trip to

China with a visit to Moscow the Soviet capitalin May 1972 The Soviets eagerly welcomed thethaw in Cold War politics They wanted to pre-vent a Chinese-American alliance and to slowthe costly arms race They also hoped to gainaccess to United States technology and to buybadly needed American grain Soviet leaderLeonid Brezhnev remarked

ldquoThere must be room in this world for twogreat nations with different systems to livetogether and work togetherrdquo

While in Moscow President Nixon signed theStrategic Arms Limitation Treaty or SALT IThis landmark treaty the result of talks begun in1969 restricted the number of certain types ofnuclear missiles in American and Soviet arse-nals Although SALT I did not end the arms raceit greatly reduced tensions between the UnitedStates and the Soviet Union

The United States and the Soviet Union alsoagreed to work together in trade and scienceNixonmdashand the worldmdashhoped that a new era ofcooperation would bring greater stability toworld affairs

The Middle EastPresident Nixonrsquos foreign policy aimed to

maintain world stability without being drawninto regional disputes The president wanted toavoid any involvement that might lead toanother situation like Vietnam Nixon statedthat the United States would help in ldquothedefense and development of allies and friendsrdquobut not take ldquobasic responsibilityrdquo for the futureof those nations A crisis soon arose in the Mid-dle East that tested this policy

Arab-Israeli TensionsSince the founding of the Jewish state of Israel

in 1948 the United States had supported Israelin its struggles against its Arab neighbors Ten-sions between Israel and the Arab states haderupted in war in 1948 1956 and 1967 The Six-Day War of 1967 left Israel in control of eastJerusalem the West Bank the Golan Heights ofSyria and the Gaza Strip and Sinai Peninsulaof Egypt The 1967 war also increased the num-ber of Arab refugees Thousands of Palestiniansnow lived in Israeli-held territory and thou-

sands more lived in neighboring Arab statesThe Palestiniansrsquo demand for their own home-land became another source of instability

Yom Kippur WarWar erupted again on October 6 1973 Egypt

and Syria attacked Israel in an attempt to regainterritory lost in the Six-Day War Because theattack occurred on Yom Kippur a major Jewishholiday the conflict became known as the YomKippur War

The United States pressured Israel to accept acease-fire A cease-fire came but not before theIsraelis had regained most of the territory lost inthe initial Arab advance Israel also had takenadditional territory from Syria and Egypt

Angry at the United States for supportingIsrael Arab oil-producing states imposed anembargomdasha ban on shipmentsmdashof oil to theUnited States and to other nations not seen asldquofriendlyrdquo The embargo caused an oil shortagein the United States Long lines of cars formed atgas pumps and Americans became angry as gasprices skyrocketed

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The president imposed emergency measuresto conserve oil Nixon also urged Americans toconserve energy voluntarily Congress reducedspeed limits on highways because a vehicleburns less fuel at lower speeds

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The president imposed emergency measuresto conserve oil Nixon also urged Americans toconserve energy voluntarily Congress reducedspeed limits on highways because a vehicleburns less fuel at lower speeds

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The president imposed emergency measuresto conserve oil Nixon also urged Americans toconserve energy voluntarily Congress reducedspeed limits on highways because a vehicleburns less fuel at lower speeds

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Challenges

President Nixon had grave concerns about the state of American society ldquoWe live ina deeply troubled and profoundly unsettled time Drugs crime campus revolts racialdiscord draft resistancemdashon every hand we find old standards violated old values dis-cardedrdquo Nixon believed that a ldquosilent majorityrdquo of middle-class Americans shared hisconcerns about increasing crime and social disorder In an ironic twist of events how-ever the Nixon administration itself would get caught up in a web of illegal activities

Nixonrsquos Domestic ProgramIn his 1968 presidential campaign Nixon had pledged to bring ldquolaw and

orderrdquo back to American society He also vowed to reduce governmentrsquos role inpeoplersquos lives

Nixonrsquos drive to restore law and order involved ldquocracking down on crimerdquoand imposing stiffer penalties on lawbreakers To strengthen the power of thepolice Nixon used federal funds to help state and city police forces

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Nixonrsquos campaign committee collected mil-lions of dollars It used some of this money to create a secret groupmdashnicknamed ldquotheplumbersrdquomdashto stop leaks of information thatmight hurt the administration Some campaignmoney also went to pay foroperations against NixonrsquosDemocratic foes but thatparty had many prob-lems of its own

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The president imposed emergency measuresto conserve oil Nixon also urged Americans toconserve energy voluntarily Congress reducedspeed limits on highways because a vehicleburns less fuel at lower speeds

To deal with the long-range problem ofdependence on imported oil Nixon urged devel-opment of domestic oil especially in Alaskawhich possessed vast untapped oil reserves

Evaluating Why were gasolineprices increasing during this period

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

The CourtsNixon thought the federal courts should be

tougher on criminals ldquoAs a judicial conserva-tiverdquo he said ldquoI believe some Court decisionshave gone too far in weakening the peace forcesagainst the criminal forces in our societyrdquo Duringhis presidency four vacancies arose on theSupreme Court Nixon hoped that the justices heappointedmdashWarren Burger as chief justice andHarry Blackmun Lewis Powell and WilliamRehnquistmdashwould shift the Court to a more con-servative position The decisions of the new justices did not fully meet the presidentrsquos conser-vative goals however

New FederalismNixon wanted to reduce federal involvement

in peoplersquos lives and to cut federal spending Hepledged to ldquoreverse the flow of power andresources from the states and communities toWashington and start power and resources flow-ing back to the peoplerdquo To accomplish thisgoal he introduced a program called the NewFederalism

One part of the New Federalism called for giv-ing the states some of the revenue earned fromfederal taxes for use at the state and local levelsThis revenue sharing became law in 1972

Nixon also sought to end or scale back manyGreat Society programs begun under PresidentJohnson He promised to ldquoquit pouring billions ofdollars into programs that have failedrdquo He abol-ished the Office of Economic Opportunity theagency that had led Johnsonrsquos War on Poverty

On civil rights issues Nixon took a conserva-tive position aimed at appealing to white votersFor example Nixon opposed busing Busing wasused to promote racial integration by transport-ing students from mostly white or African Amer-ican neighborhoods to racially mixed schools

At the same time however his administrationworked to carry out federal court orders to inte-grate schools The Nixon administration alsopromoted affirmative action or preference tominorities in jobs where they had previouslybeen excluded A practical politician PresidentNixon did accept new government programsthat had popular support He approved the

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

Analyzing What was stagflation

Nixonrsquos Second TermLooking ahead in 1971 to the presidential

campaign of 1972 Nixon had doubts about hischances for reelection The war in Vietnam hadnot yet ended and the easing of tensions withChina had not yet occurred Businesses and con-sumers had to struggle with the effects of infla-tion The president and his supporters wantedto ensure his reelection

A Campaign Against EnemiesTo help plan his campaign strategy Nixon

relied on a small group of loyal aides The aidesclosest to the president were John Ehrlichmanhis chief domestic adviser and HR Halde-man his chief of staff

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

Seeking Economic StabilityPresident Nixon tried a number of

approaches to reduce inflation He began by cut-ting federal spending At the same time hecalled for a tight money policy Interest rateswere raised so that people would borrow lessand spend less With less money in circulationprices dropped However as demand slowedbusiness began to cut back and output fellThese steps slowed economic growth andbrought on stagflationmdasha combination of risingprices and a sluggish economy

Nixon then switched tactics He temporarilyfroze wages and prices and issued guidelines forany future increases This put a brake on infla-tion but the economy remained in a recession

Later Nixon tried a third approachmdashincreas-ing federal spending to stimulate the economyAlthough this policy helped revive the economyfor a short time it also created a budget deficitin which government spending was greater thangovernment revenue None of Nixonrsquos policiesmanaged to restore the economy to its previousstrength and economic problems continued totrouble his administration

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

I would say only that if someof my judgments were wrongand some were wrong theywere made in what I believedat the time to be the bestinterest of the nation

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

The Watergate CrisisDuring Nixonrsquos second term what seemed like

a small scandal turned into a presidential crisisThe scandal began with the presidentrsquos reelectioncampaign In June 1972 his reelection committeehad wanted information about the Democratsrsquocampaign plans Members of the Nixon campaignordered ldquothe plumbersrdquo to break into the head-quarters of the Democratic National Committeeto install telephone listening devicesmdashbugs Thisbreak-in set events in motion that would rock thepresidency and the nation

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

I would say only that if someof my judgments were wrongand some were wrong theywere made in what I believedat the time to be the bestinterest of the nation

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

The White House denied any involvementNixonrsquos press secretary Ronald Ziegler dis-missed the break-in as a ldquothird-rate burglaryrdquoThe president declared that ldquono one in the WhiteHouse staff no one in the administration wasinvolved in this bizarre incidentrdquo

InvestigationMeanwhile two newspaper reporters for the

Washington Post Bob Woodward and Carl Bern-stein began publishing a series of articles thatlinked the burglary to the Nixon campaign Asthe election approached however fewer thanhalf of the American people had even heard ofthe Watergate break-in

John Sirica the federal district court judgepresiding over the trial of the Watergate bur-glars resolved to uncover the truth Eventuallyone of the burglars James McCord admittedthat White House aides had lied about theirinvolvement and had pressured the burglars ldquotoplead guilty and remain silentrdquo

A Scandal UnravelsEarly in 1973 the Senate voted to hold hear-

ings on Watergate As pressures mountedNixon shook up the White House staff He firedthe White House counsel John Dean andforced aides HR Haldeman and John Ehrlich-man to resign He also declared that he wouldtake responsibility for the mistakes of othersbecause ldquothere can be no whitewash at theWhite Houserdquo Nixon also agreed to Senatedemands to appoint a special prosecutormdashsomeone independent of the Justice Depart-mentmdashto investigate Watergate Archibald Coxtook the job

The Senate Watergate hearings began in May1973 Chaired by Senator Sam Ervin of NorthCarolina the hearings slowly revealed the innerworkings of the Nixon White House The mostdamaging testimony came from John DeanDean testified that there had been a cover-upand that Nixon himself directed it but he pro-duced no evidence to confirm his account

The Impact of WatergateThe Watergate scandal had threatened the foundation of

American democracymdashconstitutional law Yet the systemworked The legislative and judicial branches reasserted theirpowers to rein in the executive branch

I would say only that if someof my judgments were wrongand some were wrong theywere made in what I believedat the time to be the bestinterest of the nation

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Then in July investigators learned that a secrettaping system had recorded all conversations inthe presidentrsquos office Ervin and Cox demandedthe tapes President Nixon refused and claimedexecutive privilege insisting that release of thetapes would endanger national security

When Cox requested a court order to get thetapes in October Nixon ordered his attorneygeneral Elliot Richardson to fire Cox Richard-son refusedmdashand then resigned Deputy Attor-ney General William Ruckelshaus also refusedto carry out the order and resigned FinallyNixon found a Justice Department official will-ing to fire Cox This Saturday Night Massacreas the resignations and firing became knownresulted in a storm of public protest

In the middle of this turmoil another scandalstruck the administration The Justice Departmentcharged Vice President Spiro Agnew with takingbribes while governor of Maryland On October10 1973 he resigned Nixon appointed Represen-tative Gerald R Ford of Michigan the Republicanleader of the House to succeed Agnew Congressquickly confirmed the nomination

The Crisis DeepensPublic outrage over the Saturday Night Mas-

sacre forced Nixon to appoint a new specialprosecutor Leon Jaworski Meanwhile theHouse of Representatives began consideringimpeachmentmdashthe constitutionalprovision to remove a pres-ident from office If theHouse charged Nixon withcommitting ldquohigh crimesand misdemeanorsrdquo hewould then be tried in theSenate If a two-thirds major-ity of senators found himguilty he would no longer bepresident

In April 1974 Nixondecided to release printedcopies of some of the tapesThese transcripts heavilyedited and missing significantportions led to new protestsNixon refused court orders to

hand over the unedited tapes Appeals reachedthe Supreme Court which ruled on July 24 thatthe president had to surrender the tapes

At the end of July after weeks of closed hear-ings the House Judiciary Committee adoptedthree articles of impeachment charging thepresident with obstruction of justice abuse ofpower and contempt of Congress Nixonreleased the tapes on August 5 A conversationon one tape revealed that the president hadordered a cover-up of the Watergate break-injust a few days after it happened The conversa-tion provided the crucial piece of evidence thatlinked Nixon to Watergate

Nixon ResignsPublic reaction and the prospect of an

impeachment trial forced Nixon to resign Onthe evening of August 8 1974 he went onnational television to announce his decision

The next morning a tearful Richard Nixonsaid good-bye to his staff and then left theWhite House by helicopter He was succeededby Gerald Ford who became the first US pres-ident never elected to the office of president orvice president

The Watergate crisis revealed that the systemof checks and balances could work to remove apresident that abused his power and violatedthe Constitution Congress passed laws to cor-

rect some of the abuses Howeverthe scandal damaged the publicrsquosfaith in their political institutionsand leaders

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Stressing his integrity religious faith and hisstanding as an outsider Carter gathered enoughdelegates to win the Democratic nominationSenator Walter Mondale of Minnesota ran asvice president

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

History

the traditional limousine These gestures symbol-ized Carterrsquos desire to create a more informalpresidency Carter wanted to be seen as an aver-age American

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

In 1985 WilmaMankiller became theCherokee chief the firstwoman to ever serve as achief of a major NativeAmerican group She oftenfaced opposition but wasreelected and held the topposition for almost tenyears As chief she wasresponsible for 140000people and a 75 million-dollar budget

During her time as theleader of the CherokeeMankiller focused on lowering unemploymentincreasing educationalopportunities andimproving communityhealth care She also created the Institute forCherokee Literacy to pre-serve Cherokee traditionsand culture

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

Republican and former governor of New YorkRelieved to put the Watergate crisis behindthem most Americans welcomed the new pres-ident and a fresh start for the nation

One of Fordrsquos first acts however destroyedmuch of this confidence On September 8 1974only a month after taking office Ford grantedRichard Nixon a pardon for any crimes he mayhave committed as president

This meant that the former president could notbe prosecuted for his part in the cover-up Fordhoped that the pardon would help heal thewounds of Watergate Instead the pardon stirredcontroversy Many Americans questioned whyNixon should escape punishment when othersinvolved in the Watergate scandal went to jailSome even accused Ford of striking a bargainwith Nixon in advancemdashthe promise of a pardonin exchange for Nixonrsquos resignation Although

Ford defended his action the new presidentnever fully regained the trust and popularity hehad enjoyed in his first weeks in office

Spying on American CitizensIn December 1974 Americans were startled to

learn that the CIA had spied and kept secret fileson some American citizens A few months laterthey discovered that the FBI also had secret filesPresident Ford appointed special commissionsto investigate CIA and FBI misconduct He andCongress began working on new laws to regu-late the activities of the two agencies

Vietnam AmnestyYet another controversy arose when President

Ford offered amnesty or protection from prose-cution to men who had illegally avoided mili-tary service during the Vietnam War Fordpromised that these people would not be pun-ished if they pledged loyalty to the United Statesand performed some type of national serviceWhile many people approved of amnesty othersthought it was too lenient Supporters of theVietnam War argued that draft dodgers anddeserters should be punished

Ford and Foreign AffairsWith little experience in foreign affairs Ford

relied on Henry Kissinger his secretary of stateand continued the policies of the Nixon admin-istration Ford extended the policy of deacutetentewith the Soviet Union In late 1974 he met withSoviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to discuss armscontrol The two leaders reached a preliminaryagreement on limiting nuclear weapons

In July 1975 Ford traveled to Helsinki Fin-land where he signed the Helsinki Accordswith the Soviet Union and various Westernnations The countries pledged to respect thehuman rights and civil liberties of their citizens

The Ford administration also worked toimprove relations with China When ChineseCommunist chairman Mao Zedong died in1976 a more moderate government came topower The new Chinese leaders wanted toexpand economic and political ties to the UnitedStates and the two nations moved a little closer

The changing of presidents on August 9 1974 issymbolized in this replacement of former presidentNixonrsquos official portrait by one of the new presidentGerald Ford What position did Ford hold beforebecoming president

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

Stressing his integrity religious faith and hisstanding as an outsider Carter gathered enoughdelegates to win the Democratic nominationSenator Walter Mondale of Minnesota ran asvice president

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

History

the traditional limousine These gestures symbol-ized Carterrsquos desire to create a more informalpresidency Carter wanted to be seen as an aver-age American

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

During the 1960sWilma Mankiller lived inCalifornia and was activein the womenrsquos rightsmovement and the NativeAmerican rights move-ment In the 1970s shetook this activism back to her roots in northeastOklahoma and applied itto the government of hertribe the CherokeeNation

In 1985 WilmaMankiller became theCherokee chief the firstwoman to ever serve as achief of a major NativeAmerican group She oftenfaced opposition but wasreelected and held the topposition for almost tenyears As chief she wasresponsible for 140000people and a 75 million-dollar budget

During her time as theleader of the CherokeeMankiller focused on lowering unemploymentincreasing educationalopportunities andimproving communityhealth care She also created the Institute forCherokee Literacy to pre-serve Cherokee traditionsand culture

912

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

A Troubled EconomyThe economic problems that the Nixon

administration faced continued to plague Presi-dent Ford Inflation remained high and unem-ployment rose

By the 1970s Europe and Japan challengedAmericarsquos world economic supremacy Inexpen-sive and efficient Japanese cars flooded the Amer-ican market European products also providedstrong competition to American-made goods

This foreign competition led to factory closingsin the United States and massive layoffs of work-ers America began to suffer from underemploy-ment that is people worked in jobs for whichthey were overqualified or that did not fully usetheir skills Underemployment resulted in partfrom the loss of jobs to foreign competition

The actions of OPEC continued to influencethe American economy also Although the oilshortage caused by the embargo of 1973ndash1974had eased OPEC kept oil prices high and thehigh prices contributed to inflation The Ameri-can economy seemed to be crumbling and Fordstruggled for a solution

Fordrsquos ResponseTo fight inflation Ford launched a campaign

called Whip Inflation Now (WIN) a voluntaryprogram of wage and price controls He calledon Americans to save their money rather than

spend it and to planttheir own gardens tocounter rising foodprices Although theeffort led to a smalldrop in inflation theeconomy declined andthe nation headed intorecession

Spending CutsAnother approach Ford urged for control-

ling inflation was to cut government spend-ing However the Democratic-controlledCongress wanted to maintain or increasespending for social programs Ford vetoedseveral congressional spending bills in anattempt to control spending but his actionsdid not curb inflation

To stimulate the economy and encourage eco-nomic growth Ford persuaded Congress to passa tax cut Although the cut did bring someimprovement in the economy it led to largerbudget deficits as government revenue declinedand spending remained the same or increasedDespite his efforts President Ford was unable tosolve the nationrsquos economic problems

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

In 1985 WilmaMankiller became theCherokee chief the firstwoman to ever serve as achief of a major NativeAmerican group She oftenfaced opposition but wasreelected and held the topposition for almost tenyears As chief she wasresponsible for 140000people and a 75 million-dollar budget

During her time as theleader of the CherokeeMankiller focused on lowering unemploymentincreasing educationalopportunities andimproving communityhealth care She also created the Institute forCherokee Literacy to pre-serve Cherokee traditionsand culture

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Stressing his integrity religious faith and hisstanding as an outsider Carter gathered enoughdelegates to win the Democratic nominationSenator Walter Mondale of Minnesota ran asvice president

Meanwhile President Ford had struggled togain the Republican nomination He faced astrong challenge from the former governor ofCalifornia Ronald Reagan who was favored byparty conservatives Ford chose Senator BobDole of Kansas as his running mate

During the campaign Ford tried to stress hisachievements as president Carter promised toclean up the government and ran as muchagainst the memory of Nixon and governmentcorruption as against Ford Carter won in a veryclose election gaining 501 percent of the popu-lar vote to Fordrsquos 48 percent To a great extentCarter owed his margin of victory to supportfrom African American Southern voters

Explaining How did Carter repre-sent himself in the 1976 presidential campaign

An Informal PresidencyCarter an ldquooutsiderrdquo with no experience in

national politics did not fit the image of a typi-cal politician A former governor of GeorgiaCarter liked to say he was just a peanut farmerfrom a small town called Plains who wanted toserve his country

From the beginning Carter set a down-to-earthtone At his inauguration he wore an ordinarybusiness suit rather than formal clothing Afterthe ceremony Carter and his family walkedup Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitolto the White House instead of riding in

Struggling With the EconomyWhen Carter took office the nation still suf-

fered from high inflation and unemploymentCarter tried to jolt the economy out of recessionby increasing federal spending and cutting taxesBoth measures were meant to stimulate economicgrowth Unemployment came down but infla-tion took off Carter then reversed course andproposed spending cuts and a delayed tax cut

Carterrsquos reversals on economic policies madehim seem weak and uncertain As an outsiderthe president had trouble gaining support forhis programs in Congress Although Carterneeded the backing of congressional Democratshis administration made little effort to workwith them

Energy CrisisCarter made energy policy a priority The

high costs of energy added to inflation In addi-tion as American money flowed overseas topurchase oil the nation faced a growing tradedeficitmdashthe value of foreign imports exceededthe value of American exports

In April 1977 Carter presented the NationalEnergy Plan aimed at resolving the energy cri-sis To stress the need to reduce energy use forexample the president turneddown the thermostat inthe White House

In 1985 WilmaMankiller became theCherokee chief the firstwoman to ever serve as achief of a major NativeAmerican group She oftenfaced opposition but wasreelected and held the topposition for almost tenyears As chief she wasresponsible for 140000people and a 75 million-dollar budget

During her time as theleader of the CherokeeMankiller focused on lowering unemploymentincreasing educationalopportunities andimproving communityhealth care She also created the Institute forCherokee Literacy to pre-serve Cherokee traditionsand culture

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

Carterrsquos plan included the creation of aDepartment of Energy to coordinate energypolicy research funds to explore alternativesources of energy and tax policies to encouragedomestic oil production and energy conserva-tion Congress enacted a weakened version ofthe plan in 1978

Nuclear PowerIn the late 1970s Americans became more

concerned about the threats of nuclear power InMarch 1979 a major accident occurred at theThree Mile Island nuclear power plant nearHarrisburg Pennsylvania

An anti-nuclear protest movement soonspread President Carter however was unwill-ing to halt the nuclear energy program whichprovided more than 10 percent of the nationrsquosenergy needs At the same time supporters ofnuclear power argued that with proper safe-guards nuclear power provided no danger tothe environment

Identifying What economic prob-lems did Carter face when he took office

Foreign AffairsCarter based his foreign policy on human

rightsmdasha concern that governments around theworld grant greater freedom and opportunitywithout the threat of persecution or violence Heproposed that any nation that violated humanrights should not receive aid and support fromthe United States

Carter withdrew economic and military aidfrom such countries as Argentina Uruguay andEthiopia because of human rights violations Hecondemned South Africa for its policy ofapartheid racial separation and economic andpolitical discrimination against non-whites

Carterrsquos human rights diplomacy sometimescaused problems in the United States In 1980Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed thousandsof Cubans including criminals and politicalprisoners to leave Cuba

Beginning in April Cuban refugees beganleaving from Mariel Harbor most were en routeto Florida The United States however hadtrouble absorbing such large numbers of peopleSome of the emigrants were detained in refugee

camps In June President Carter ordered otherCubans be moved to federal prisons to awaitremoval hearings Then in September Castrosealed off the boatlift About 125000 Cubanrefugees had entered the United States

Carter had learned that a foreign policy basedon a single issue human rights had many limi-tations Even so the president continued tospeak out on the issue

The Panama CanalCarter also acted to end Latin American bit-

terness over the Panama Canal Over the yearsUS ownership of the canal and its control of theCanal Zone had caused friction between theUnited States and Panama Carter signed twotreaties with Panama in 1977 The treatiesturned the US-controlled Panama Canal overto Panama by the year 2000 but guaranteed thatthe canal would remain a neutral waterwayopen to all shipping Some Republicans in theSenate tried to block ratification of the treatiescharging that Carter was giving away US prop-erty The Senate approved the treaties in 1978

The Middle EastPresident Carter sought to bring peace to the

Middle East When peace talks between Israeland Egypt stalled in 1978 Carter invited Israeliprime minister Menachem Begin and Egyptianpresident Anwar el-Sadat to Camp DavidMaryland for a summit meeting

For two weeks the three leaders discussedissues dividing Israel and Egypt In September1978 they announced an agreement Known asthe Camp David Accords the agreement led toan Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty signed at theWhite House in March 1979 The treaty markedthe first time that Israel and an Arab nation hadreached a peace agreement

The Soviet UnionCarter criticized Soviet human-rights viola-

tions but at the same time he continued negoti-ations on arms control In June 1979 thepresident signed a second Strategic Arms Limi-tation Treaty or SALT II Critics in the Senatecharged that the treaty gave the Soviets anadvantage and the Senate delayed ratification

Any hope of the Senate approving SALT IIdisappeared in December 1979 when Soviettroops invaded Afghanistan a country insouthwestern Asia bordering the Soviet UnionCarter ordered sanctions against the SovietUnion The United States and other nationsrefused to take part in the Olympic Games inMoscow In addition the United States imposeda grain embargo on the Soviet Union

Crisis in IranIn the 1970s Iran was one of the strongest

US allies in the Persian Gulf region an areavital to Western oil needs Shah MohammedReza Pahlavi the ruler of Iran used US aid tobuild up a powerful military force Many Irani-ans however complained about corruption inthe government Others objected to Westerninfluence in the country which they felt weak-ened traditional Muslim values

In January 1979 Islamic fundamentalistsmdashpeople who believe in strict obedience to reli-gious lawsmdashforced the shah to flee Iran Thenew ruler Muslim leader Ayatollah Khomeiniwas hostile to the United States because of itssupport of the shah

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office

The Election of 1980The Iranian crisis damaged the president polit-

ically By the time the election campaign beganCarterrsquos popularity among the public haddeclined dramatically

The Republicans nominated Ronald Reaganfor president in 1980 In marked contrast toCarter Reagan radiated charm and confidenceHis conservative message of lower taxesreduced spending stronger defense and arestoration of American pride attracted Ameri-cans weary of government and economic prob-lems When Reagan asked ldquoAre you better offnow than you were four years agordquo mostAmericans answered ldquoNordquo

Reagan swept to victory with an electoralvote margin of 489 to 49 Republicans alsogained control of the Senate for the first timesince 1954 The election resulted in a bitterdefeat for Jimmy Carter who only 4 years earlierhad promised a new era in American politics

A final disappointment for Carter came in Jan-uary 1981 During the last weeks of his presi-dency he worked to obtain the release of thehostages The Iranians finally did release themmdashafter Ronald Reagan took the oath of office
