Let me clarify :)
It wasn't Nixon who got the kids in the car, it was the guy who worked in
the West Wing.
The worker got his kids in the car, drove up to the white house and pointed
out to his kids that the most powerful man in the free world was leaving
this office because of the power of law.
Sorry for any misunderstanding
