When Jeffersonian Americans sought "cultural independence" they meant that they wanted the freedom and "space" to live life the way they wished, without having to conform to the norms and customs of immigrant and other groups.
Based on the tapes from the oval office, Richard Nixon felt that because he was president that he was above the law. This meant that the normal laws of the Untied States did not necessarily apply to him.
