John Volpe was now the frist italion president of the united states. He never planed to become president of the united staes he thought Nixon would serve out a full two terms but the Watergate scandal soon ended Nixon "s presidency.
President Volp"s first act was also his most controversial as he pardoned Richard Nixon.
His new vice president was Gerald Ford of Michigan . Soon after he took office, the 1974 midterms happened. next up for the helsinke accords and canceling eroupean visit for swine flu epidemic..
The choice to pardon Nixon was so unpopular, the Democrats won a massive landslide.
Governor sergent shriver campaigned across the country for Democrat candidates.senator Bayh also sought the Democratic nomination in 1976.
"Ted, this is the year. I can sense change in the eyes of America. I want to run.", Shriber said.
"You should watch out for what the world will throw at us.", Ted said.
"Theodore Roosevelt said that he was as strong as a bull moose. I too will never give up for America." Governor shriver wasn't the only one running. Volpe had only 2 years remaing of Nixons term and if he could win in 1976 he
would be ineligible to run again in 1980.that was ok with volpe he never planed to become president in the first place. in 68 volpe ran as a favorite son candidate merely to get the v.p
spot which he did over Spriro Agneew."I am sure glad i dont have your job vice president Ford told him one day having lunch with President Volpe. Many Republicans did not like President Volpe. Since his parden of Nixon casted a Dark shadow on the Republican party.
watergate had hurt many congressional and senator canidates in 1974 midterms in california Jerry Brown had defeated Houston Flourney to become next governor of Californian. Now he too was in 1976 primarry.
On the Democratic side.
Floureny had blamed Watergate for his loss. Nixon tried to encourage Connally to run, and Reagan was plotting a campaign too. On the Democratic side, Wallace was planning to try again as was Jerry "Moonbeam" Brown and Scoop Jackson.
While Wallace did well in South America, most Democrats coalesced around Governor Shriver , leading him to victory. Meanwhile, the Republicans were in chaos. Reagan and Volpe were throwing mud.
Now senator percy was running as well but blew up reporter when he talked his daughters scene in center fold girls
There was a brokered convention but Reagan did the most impossible deal since the Molotov-Ribbentrov Pact. Regan knew that the Republican would likely lose in 1976, so he knew that 1980 would be ripe for the taking.
Reagan ended up endorcing president Volpe in 1976.
President John Volpe narrowly won 1976 nomination against governor Reagan to run for his first full term.Volpe faced much controversy having pardoned Nixon. for many crimes during Watergate scandal

Counsellor to the President (1974) Things all turn out for the best in the end. Festus helps save the Pugh family's welfare, Av Marie and Toby get married and plan to leave for California, and Dibble even gets up from under his tree, but the rest of the Gunsmoke leads have nothing to do at all. Marshal Dillon (Arness), Doc (Milburn Stone), and Newly O'Brian (Buck Taylor) strangely only appear in a single scene, and for a show that was once titled Marshal Dillon, it feels a bit anticlimactic to choose a Festus-focused episode to end Season 20. But it didn't seem like even the show itself knew it was ending.
" CBS has done something Indians, bad guys, bad whisky and not even CBS could do earlier: Kill off U.S. Marshal Matt Dillon," the Associated Press wrote back in April 1975 (as noted by Greenland in The Gunsmoke Chronicles), just weeks after the lackluster finale aired. "A few years ago CBS tried to remove the show but was met by such audience protests that the network had to renew the series." Previously, star trek was cancelled to keep Gunsmoke on the air because then-CBS President William S. Paley and his wife were big fans of the Western drama. But this time around, there would be no eleventh-hour save, and the cancellation stuck. Gunsmoke evaporated from the air without a sound. | Counsellor to the President (1974)
