Calvin Carlson- The President Calling

I listened to Nixon addressing the nation after the Watergate scandal. Throughout the speech, Nixon names off various people who resign from their positions due to this scandal and how those people are very good at what they do and Nixon is saddened by their leaving. This makes the listener wonder about how much the individuals close to the scandal know about what really happened and if those people are resigning on the fact that they want to leave before more information leaks about what happened or before they are forced to leave. To me, these people that are leaving know what is going to happen and are just trying to get out as soon as they can before matters get even more out of hand.
