Richard M. Nixon was President from 20 January 1969 to 9 August 1974.
Nixon served only 1 full term. However, he was elected twice, but during his second term, his administration (specifically the CREEP, the Committee to Re-Elect the President) was tied to a series of illegal activities in what was coined the "Watergate Scandal." The most publicized event in the scandal occurred on June 17, 1972, when 5 men were caught breaking and entering into the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington D.C. The burglary was not such a problem as Nixon was never directly tied to it, and even the fact that Nixon tried to meddle with the investigation during two weeks did not necessarily mean his presidency was over. However, the fact that he denied this meddling meant he was forced to resign after it was almost sure he would be impeached.
