“Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the
children of God.” – Matthew 5:9 “I don’t think any
president has been more wrongly persecuted than Nixon, ever. I just
think he was a saint.” – Ben Stein From Ben Stein, New York
Times bestselling author, humorist and former speech writer for
both Nixon and Ford administrations – a powerful (and humorous)
thinker on economics, politics, education and history and
motivation – a personal memoir of his friend Richard Nixon: The
man, patriot, president, peacemaker and visionary. The
Richard Nixon Stein remembers and lovingly describes has almost
nothing to do with the Richard Nixon as portrayed in most media. In
Stein’s view, Richard Nixon was a born peacemaker, a saint. Stein
believes Nixon was tortured, abused, beat up by the Beautiful
People, but through it all, above all, he was a peacemaker, a trait
he inherited from his Quaker mother. Nixon’s goal, as he
often explained to Stein and others on his staff, was to create
“a generation of peace.” And Stein argues he did it; Nixon gave
the United States the longest sustained period of peace since World
War II. In Stein’s view, if we no longer have to fear Russian
ICBMs screaming out of hell to start nuclear war, we can thank the
shade of Richard Nixon. Why did the media hate him so much? Stein
argues it was because Nixon was vulnerable and showed it when
attacked. He did not have the tough hide of a Reagan or an Obama.
Like the schoolyard bullies they are, the media went after Nixon
for his vulnerability. An insider’s account of Nixon the man,
president and peacemaker, The Peacemaker: Nixon: The Man, President
and My Friend will make you reconsider the life and legacy of 37th
President of the United States.
