The Presidential Library?

[DaveS]

You evidently haven't heard that the GWB Library was flooded. Ruined both coloring books.

All presidential libraries have become spin machines. I'm not aware of any exceptions.

Based on a 1980's conversation with a friend of my grandparents who served in the White House for both of Richard Nixon's terms.. The main purpose of a Presidential Library is a tax deduction and a potential income stream for the retired president. Ostensibly it's an historian's dream facility, with access to documents and recording that allow a glimpse into the events that shaped and surrounded history.

The facility is built and maintained by tax decuctible donations

Kap! You live within a short drive of two Presidential Libraries. Have you seen either?

[kap]

Nope! Never knew that.
Wait! You're talking about the Reagan library in Simi?

And the Nixon Library in some god forsaken place about 30-45 minutes from you.

Nixon Presidential Library is located in Yorba Linda, Orange County, CA. A.k.a the Orange Curtain!

I knew that. You should visit them. Let me know if it's worth the trip.

Ahem, I'd prefer visiting the Library of Congress instead. However, if I ever do to one or both of them I will post of my experiences here
