What does eminent domain in 2012 have to do with Richard Nixon’s resignation? Simple. It’s almost always about the money. Nothing has changed in 40 years.
If you are younger than 45, you will benefit from a refresher course in modern American history—Richard Nixon’s Watergate Scandal, the reason Nixon resigned his Presidency, the only U.S. President ever to resign.

Deep Throat: Oh, I can’t tell you that.
