You may want to correct the above. I know the President has many similarities to a King, but it does remain a different title. In the context of Nixon of course Humpty Dumpty does come to mind.

I think you have a point in both this and your previous post. I have next to zero interest in political memoirs and can only recall reading a single one in the past 5 years or so. I'm starting to seriously considering reading this for the simple purpose of seeing how Woodward has presented it.
