Watergate and the limits of presidential power
|
Beschreibung/Kommentar |
The lesson helps to understand the events of the Watergate scandal and its impact on the American presidency (USA: PBS 2019).
Students will:
- Learn about the Watergate scandal of 1972-1974 and the events that led to Nixon’s resignation.
- Discuss the reasons why Nixon’s leadership was known as an “Imperial Presidency.”
- Discuss issues such as executive privilege and think about how much Watergate has limited presidential power over the last four decades. If you are not sure of the limits placed on presidential overreach, or its staying power through the present time, how could you find out?
- Explore the ways that the Watergate scandal has changed the public perception of the presidency over the past 40 years.
