In the years following World War II another “war” occurred between the USSR and the USA. This war called “The Cold War” lasted for many years. When comparing the strategies, battle tactics, and policies. These two were similar by using Allies to gain support these were NATO and the Warsaw Pact. They also keep advancing in the field of warfare and weaponry. They differ by the fact that although they both spend themselves into debt the USA does not sink under these debts. They also are differ in the way that the USSR creates a buffer zone while the USA creates the Marshall Plan to help several countries, such as Germany, become industrialized for aid in any future war.
One of the most prominent moments in the history of the United States of America happened in the middle of President Richard Nixon’s presidency. What is now referred to as the Watergate scandal proved to America that the Government was not a force of absolute good, proving corruption throughout the Government. Despite this the prime member in this scandal later served another term as president. But even so this scandal revealed some “chinks in the proverbial armor of the Government.”
On June seventeenth, 1972, in the office/luxury apartment building, the Watergate, in Washington D.C. security guard Frank Wills, while doing his morning rounds, discovered a door, between the basement stairwell and the parking structure, that had a small piece of tape preventing the door to latch closed. Wills removed the tape and returned to his duties. Later that day Wills returned to find that another piece of tape had been placed to stop the latch, Wills then contacted the police and they later caught five men loitering around said door, little did Wills realize that this small piece of tape would lead to one of the most renown scandals in presidential history.
These five “intruders” were identified as Bernard Barker, Virgilio Gonzalez, Eugenio Martinez, Frank Sturgis, and James W. McCord Jr. Many of these were part of a special investigation force known as the “Plumbers.” One of these five, McCord was head of security for the Committee to Re-elect the President, or the CRP, and four of these men had CIA connections and were involved in the Bay of Pigs Invasion. The goal of these five men was to repair a piece of wiretapping equipment and to photograph documents.
The next stage in this scandal was the Government “damage control” in which where Richard Nixon claimed that none of the persons involved were employed by the president or the Executive branch of the Government. After this cover up Bob Woodward of the Washington Post with the combined effort of Carl Bernstein to thoroughly report all details of the Watergate scandal. In order to do this they reached a source in the White House called ”Deep Throat” in which they only confirmed information they already acquired.
Despite this in November 7, 1972 Richard Nixon was re-elected as president and the trials of the five men were put into place. Many of which were convicted on the charges of conspiracy, burglary, and illegal wiretapping. Later Judge Sirica obtained the tapes involving this scandal and the trial and investigation to the impeachment of Richard M. Nixon had begun in April 1974. Before impeachment Nixon resigned from presidency on August 8, 1974, thus ending the presidency of Richard M. Nixon, who within his presidency showed to the American people three things, first that there is corruption in the system, second that even the president is not the ultimate good, and that people for the first time cannot completely trust in their president, a shocking truth at this time.
