Richard M. Nixon was president from January 20, 1969 until August 9, 1974, a period of about 5 1/2 years.

In 1968 Nixon defeated Democratic Candidate Hubert Humphrey and Independent Candidate George Wallace. In 1972 he won a landslide victory (fourth largest in history) against George McGovern. His fortunes fell rapidly following the Watergate Scandal. He resigned on August 9, 1974.
