In all the decisions I have made in my public life, I have always tried to do what was best for the Nation. Throughout the long

and difficult period of Watergate, I have felt it was my duty to persevere, to make every possible effort to complete the term of office to which you elected me.
In the past few days, however, it has become evident to me that I no longer have a strong enough political base in the Congress to justify continuing that effort. As long as there was such a base, I felt strongly that it was necessary to see the constitutional process through to its conclusion, that to do otherwise would be unfaithful to the spirit of that deliberately difficult process and a dangerously destabilizing precedent for the future.

But with the disappearance of that base, I now believe that the constitutional purpose has been served, and there is no longer a need for the process to be prolonged.

—President Richard Nixon
August 8, 1974

A common goal of the Glorious, American, and French revolutions was
Georgia [21]
Only that they both deposed an unpopular king. After that they differ....The British 'Glorious' was done without bloodshed or violence, and a new Queen (the deposed Kings daughter) was right away placed on throne as new leader, leading to peace and prosperity. The French...was done with lots of violence, rioting and bloodshed including the execution of the deposed king, the queen and their children. The French never got around to placing a new king or leader on the murdered king's throne, so chaos was the result.
