Pentagon Papers -

government study of U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia. Commissioned by Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara in June, 1967, the 47-volume, top secret study covered the period from World War II to May, 1968. It was written by a team of analysts who had access to classified documents, and was completed in Jan., 1969. The study revealed a considerable degree of miscalculation, bureaucratic arrogance, and deception on the part of U.S. policymakers. In particular, it found that the U.S. government had continually resisted full disclosure of increasing military involvement in Southeast Asiaair strikes over Laos, raids along the coast of North Vietnam, and offensive actions by U.S. marines had taken place long before the American public was informed. On June 13, 1971, the New York Times began publishing a series of articles based on the study. The Justice Dept. obtained a court injunction against further publication on national security grounds, but the Supreme Court ruled (June 30) that constitutional guarantees of a free press overrode other considerations, and allowed further publication. The government indicted (1971) Daniel Ellsberg, a former government employee who made the Pentagon Papers available to the New York Times, and Anthony J. Russo on charges of espionage, theft, and conspiracy. On May 11, 1973, a federal court judge dismissed all charges against them because of improper government conduct .

Well, there was a nice little riot/protest on campus of Kent State University in Ohio. It resulted in the death of 4 students, because the careless officials dealing with the rioters shot into the crowd at random. That was the biggest issue among others in result to the bombing in Cambodia.

President Nixon was a part of Watergate, a political scandal where five men broke into the Democratic National Committee headquarters. Their intention was to steal information and place wire taps in the phones, but they were caught by Frank Willis, a security guard on duty, and arrested. As a result of this scandal, Nixon faced impeachment but instead resigned.

Nixon was the first president to visit China since Communist rule began and, during that visit, he and then Chairman Xiaoping began a trading partnership that still exists today, and the U.S. still has a good working relationship with the Chinese government (which became more of a "capitalist communist" form of government over time).
