He did a lot to promote affirmative action and the environmentalist hysteria. His wage and price controls briefly gave Americans a taste of what it must have been like to live in the Soviet Union. I well remember hour long waits at the gas pump and the disconcerting experience of confronting row after row of empty shelves in the grocery store. I do give him credit for belatedly ending the Vietnam War and abolishing the draft, thus defusing what was becoming a dangerous pre-revolutionary situation in the US itself. As for the openning to China, that has yet to fully play out. Sent at: 2008 07 09
