My first memory of a president was watching my Mormon aunt cry when Nixon was forced to resign - they hounded that great man.
No wonder my mother decided to stay in Europe for 8 years. She nearly died when I started listening to Paul Harvey on AFN (American Forces Networks). She didn't understand I would listen to anything that was in English - 1950s reruns of the Shadow, the Green Hornet or TX-1000. Even Radio Free Europe or the Russian counter programs broaddcast in English. European radio in the evening - you could catch different opinions in 7 languages.
