Refer to explorations in literature for a complete version of this article. read this excerpt from "nixon resigns" by carroll kilpatrick: largely because of his breakthroughs in negotiations with china and the soviet union, and partly because of divisions in the democratic party, mr. nixon won a mammoth election victory in 1972, only to be brought down by scandals that grew out of an excessive zeal to make certain he would win re-election. how do the details of this excerpt best develop the central idea that nixon's resignation is tied to the watergate scandal? a. they illustrate nixon's negotiation skills were overseas but not within his own government. b. the provide insight into ways peace negotiations could not overshadow nixon's eagerness to defeat his political opponents. c. they show that even with the democrats' lack of unity, the republicans still focused on ensuring their candidate's electoral triumph. d. they indicate that nixon was overly focused on winning a second term and willing to do anything to secure victory.

The correct answer is D. They indicate that Nixon was overly focused on winning a second term and willing to do anything to secure victory.

The Watergate scandal, on June 1972, started when several burglars were arrested in the office of the Democratic National Committee. The prowlers were connected to Nixon’s reelection campaign, and they had been caught monitoring phones and stealing documents.

Later, Nixon gave a resignation speech that did not reflect much on his term and actions but was cursory and failed to give a trustworthy apology for the Watergate Scandal.  The speech was written to accent his accomplishments as a president.  This article written by Carroll Kilpatrick reproduces some of Nixon's words in the resignation speech, but also indicates the limitations of the mentioned speech and Nixon's earlier accomplishments.
