Explanation:

because in the story its says "Public and media pressure led to the investigator's request that a judge order Nixon to turn over the tapes. Many Americans, including members of Congress, believed Nixon knew something about the break-in. They no longer supported him. Some thought his lack of cooperation on the recordings showed guilt. Nixon felt that Congress might no longer support any decisions he may need to make as president. Therefore, he resigned before the end of his term. Listen to an excerpt from his final words as president to the American people.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
