Jonathan Alter: Nixon-Obama comparisons 'ridiculous'; evidence says otherwise [video]

Is that so, Jonathan? Because our friends at Revealing Politics would beg to differ. And unlike Alter, they’ve done their research. As it turns out, President Obama has quite a lot in common with Tricky Dick.

Let’s go to the videotape!

Okay so Obama and Nixon…not that different at all to the point of spookiness. http://t.co/prdj7lGhJ7
