1968 Nixon won the presidential election for the Republicans against
Hubert Humphrey and became president after Johnson. As president he reduced
US troop commitments abroad and 1973 he ended the US military involvement
in Vietnam. 1972 the Watergate-scandal
seemed to lead to an impeachment process and under this pressure he resigned
from office as the first American president in 1974.
