Photo: In this Sept. 19, 1968, file photo, then-presidential candidate Richard Nixon, a white man wearing a suit and tie, flashes the victory sign as he acknowledges cheers from the crowd, at the fairgrounds of Springfield, Mo. There’s little doubt Nixon was up to dirty tricks before his presidency ever began. Documents released by the Nixon Presidential Library add weight to existing evidence that his 1968 presidential campaign tried to sabotage Vietnam peace talks before the U.S. election.
