Answer:
The question refers to the Watergate Affair.
Explanation:
The Watergate affair is a term that denotes a series of political scandals during the presidential term of Richard Nixon. These events would lead to the resignation of this president on August 9, 1974.
The scandal began when five burglars who broke into the office of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate Hotel in Washington on June 17, 1972 were arrested. The investigation was initially conducted by the FBI and later passed into the jurisdiction of the Watergate Committee, which was formed by the Senate. The investigation revealed that this burglary was just one in a series of illegal activities that included intimidation, political espionage and sabotage. Nixon's staff and people loyal to him were responsible for this. Among the illegal actions was the use of money of suspicious origin that came from Mexico, which was used, among other things, to silence seven participants in the June 17 burglary.
After two years of investigation against the president, it was established that he knew about the tapes that were recorded during the wiretapping of the Democrats. Seeing that he was threatened with impeachment, Nixon resigned ten days after the end of the investigation. Nixon's successor Gerald Ford signed a pardon for Nixon after he handed over the presidency.
In the course of American history we have employed many tactics and ploys to keep our nation and our nation's beliefs safe. Isolationism, Imperialism, and Intervention all come into play at least once during each of the wars our country has fought in.
Isolationism: it's basically a policy of remaining apart from the affairs or interests of other groups to prevent unnecessary wars. It mostly involves politics rather than trade.
The most prominent example of American Isolationist Policies is during WWII, when Isolationists advocated non-involvement in European and Asian conflicts and non-entanglement in international politics. This kept America out of WWII until the Japan`s attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 which brought the United States into the war on the Allied side.
Next up is Imperialism: it is another policy, only it involves extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force. It mainly influences our economy and it also helps to keep the peace between the weaker nations.
U.S. imperialism took many different forms in the 20th century, ranging from colonies in Puerto Rico and the Philippines to protectorates in Cuba, Panama, and other countries in Latin America, and open door policies such as that in China. Formal colonies would be ruled with U.S.-appointed colonial governors and supported by U.S. troops. During WWII the Japanese attacked the american colonies in the Philippines and drove the United States out. The General McArthur declared as he was evacuated from the Philippines that" I shall return" and he did.
And last but certainly not least Intervention: interference by a country in another's affairs to improve a situation. Mainly to help maintain order and to stop dictators.
The best examples of this are immediately after WWII and it was called the Cold War foreign policy. The United States and its allies used it to prevent the spread of communism as much as possible without starting a war with the Soviet Union aka: Russia. Vietnam was really just a battle of democracy vs communism.

As for material wise, the English realized that the American Colonies could provide a stable stream of funds that relied on the production, refining, and sale of many different supplies and crops. Such examples would be Tobacco, Sugar (not 100% on this one), and Cotton (later on). Other products that could be produced in the Americas were whale oil and seafood. As for influence, the English noticed that they could claim large parts of Unclaimed (and sometimes claimed, which they woukd fight for) North America such as parts of Canada and almost the entire East Coats in order to spread the influence of the Crown further throughout the world. It was also a power struggle fight between Britain, France, and Spain, which was another reason for the colonies.
Nowadays with new technologies and new ways of communication politicians promote themselves in different ways as the ones from the past. Those new ways can sometimes benefit their campaigns but at the same time be dangerous. On one hand, journalism is in charge of providing reliable information along with judging politicians. However, journalism has been replaced by phone cameras and normal citizens who provided real information in real time without edition. On the other hand, politicians make good use of internet tools such as webpages, which help them keep direct contact with voters. Moreover, a modern mode of communication is the cooperation of celebrities like musicians and actors or actresses who promote politicians through expensive campaigns or artistic events.
