Nixon was being accused of giving special favors to his contributors. In Nixon's day the fundraising laws weren't as complex as they are now. Your contributors could pay for your mailing expenses, for instance--this was done in Nixon's case. Nixon was trying to show he wasn't giving his contributors special favors.
The name of the speech came because Nixon said he wouldn't return one contribution--someone gave the Nixon kids a puppy they named Checkers.
