Even though the Watergate Scandal was controversial because the President was involved with things he should not have been, I would not consider him to be a bad president. Nixon did provide a lot of good things for the American people and the country as a whole. I give him a lot of credit for the way he handled the situation in Vietnam. He could have done a couple of things differently, like not bomb Cambodia, however, that was not any deciding factor as to whether or not the US won the war so it does not have that much impact. It just caused a little bit of controversy amongst the citizens in the US. President Nixon's policies of Vietnamization and the Nixon Doctrine were the keys to getting out of the war in Vietnam. It was good strategy to slowly pull out the US troops and allow the SOuth Vietnamese to fight the remainder of the war by themselves, however, we still sent sufficient military aid and financial support. Nixon was a good president, despite his involvement in the Watergate Scandal.
