Hallo, ich muss ein Referat über Richard Nixon halten
Könnt ihr bitte mal kontrollieren ob das gut so ist und eventuell Fehler verbessern, bzw noch was wichtiges hinzufügen, wenn ich was vergessen habe, vielen dank:

"I will present you the 37th US president Richard Milhous Nixon.
He was born in Yorba Linda, California in 1913 and died in New York Ciry in 1994.
His parents Francis Anthony and Hannah Milhous Nixon were Quakers, which is a religious community.
He had four brothers Harold, Arthut, Donald and Edward. In 1940 he married the high school teacher Patricia Ryan and got two children form her: Patricia and Julie. Nixon was a very good student and studied law at Duke University and worked as a lawyer in California. In the second World War he attended the US Marine where he became Lieutnant Commander.
In 1946 Nixon was elected to the House of Represenatatives. Four years later he became the US-Senator of California. Under the president Dwigth Eisenhower Nixon was the Vice President for eight years. In 1960 he tried to become President but he lost to John F. Kennedy. In 1968, however, he ran again for President of the United States and was elected.
The most immediate task which faced President Nixon was to find a solution for the Vietnam War. He detached the American military and at the same time he expanded the war of the neighbouring countries, Kambodscha and Laos. In 1973 he successfully negotiated a ceasefire with North Vietnam. His foreign policy were largely successful. In 1972 he visited the People´s Republic of China and the Soviet Union, which opened diplomatic relations between the two nations.
Moreover he founded a lot of public authoritives like the Foundation of the Environmental Protection Agency. He also founded the initative „War on cancer“, whose aim is to find a healing for cancer. Therefore he passed the law, called „the National Canser Act“. This should be the most important action in his term. The „Nixon-Doctrine“ was published in 1972. It says that the US expects of their military federate that they got more self-contained. The USA should just be the public security force.
In 1974 Nixon resigned the office of the presidency because of the Watergate scandal.
The Watergate scandal was apolitical scandal during the 1970s. On the 7th June 1972 five men broke into the Watergate Hotel, the Democratic National Headquarters. The five men were there to fix the bugs which had been planed by them a week before. They were under the leadership of the White House, strictly speaking the Republicans, to spy out the Democrats, Nixon recorded many conversations. They wanted to do the impeachment, but Nixon resigned before on his own. Gerald Ford take ober the office of the presidency and finished Nixons second term. Later he pardoned Nixon for any federal crimes he may have committed.
Nixon wasn´t allowed to work as a Jurist anymore. So he wrote memoires to fix his finances. Later he tried to improve his image and became a politic author and undertook many foreign trips. +
In 1994 he had a stroke and died.
After his death many movies were made about him, for example „The Assassination of Richard Nixon“; „Secret Honor“ and „Frost/Nixon“. Besides he is also famous in comics, such as Watchman, Superman-Red Son. In the science fiction comedy „Futurama“ Nixons head is an important character. There are also songs which were written about him. One of them is „Dickie´s such an asshole“ from „Frank Zappa“. This song is a political statement to the Watergate scandal."

I am going to present toyou a brief/short look at the life of Richard Milhous Nixon, the 37th US president

He was born in Yorba Linda, California in 1913 and died in New York City in 1994. His parents , Francis Anthony and Hannah Milhous Nixon , were Quakers, which is a religious community.
His four brothers were Harold, Arthur, Donald and Edward. In 1940 he married the high school teacher Patricia Ryan; [---] they had two children, Patricia and Julie.
Nixon was a very good law student [--]at Duke University. He later worked as a lawyer in California. In the Second World War he joined the US Navy where he became
a Lieutnant Commander.

In 1946 Nixon was elected to the House of Representatives. Four years later he became [--]US-Senator of California. [---] Nixon was [--] Vice President Under the President Dwight Eisenhower for eight years. In 1960 he tried to become president but he lost to John F. Kennedy. In 1968, however, he ran again for
presidency [--]and was elected.

The most important task which President Nixon faced was to find a solution for the Vietnam War. He sent [---] American troops to Vietnam[b] and at the same time he expanded the war [b]into the neighbouring countries, Cambodia and Laos.
Despite the detachment of hundreds of thousands of American soldiers the war could not be won so Nixon [--]negotiated a ceasefire with North Vietnam which enabled the troops to leave the country in 1973 More than 50 000 US soldiers died in this war.(1).

His foreign policy was directed by the German born Henry Kissinger, it was largely successful. In 1972 he visited the People´s Republic of China; as he played table tennis with the Chinese Prime Minister his policy was later called "ping pong policy";, his visit to the Soviet Union was the first visit of an American president after the Cuba crisis of 1962.
He thus opened diplomatic relations between the two nations and the USA.

Moreover he furthered and founded a lot of public projects like the Foundation of the Environmental Protection Agency. He also founded the initative „War on Cancer“, whose aim is to find a healing for cancer. Therefore he passed the bill, called „the National Cancer Act“. These became the most important home policy actions of his term.

The „Nixon-Doctrine“ was published in 1972. It said that the US expected of their military federates that in case of war they primarily had to rely on their own forces. The USA would just offer technical support by sending weapons; troops ewere to be sent in case of emergency
..
In 1974 Nixon resigned the office of the presidency because of the Watergate scandal.
The Watergate scandal was a political scandal[--]. On the 7th June 1972 five men broke into the Watergate Hotel, the Democratic National Headquarters [--] where they fixed[--] bugs
as ithad been planned by them a week before. They were directed by the White House, strictly speaking by the Republicans, to spy out the Democrats, Nixon recorded many conversations.

Two reporters of the "Washington Post" detected this scandal The US Congress wanted to impeach Nixon, but he resigned on his own before . Vice PresidentGerald Ford took over the office of [--] presidency and finished Nixon`s second term. he later pardoned Nixon for any federal crimes he may had committed, which was seen by many
Americans as a scandal of its own. Nixon wasn´t allowed to work as a lawyer anymore. So he wrote his memoires to fix his finances. he later tried to improve his image and became a politic author and undertook many [--] trips to foreign countries. In 1994 he had a stroke and died.

There are also songs which were written about him. One of them is „Dickie´s such an asshole“ by „Frank Zappa“. This song is a political statement to the Watergate scandal."


(1) das Ende des Vietnamkrieges kannst du nicht so positiv mit "successfully" darstellen; es war die größte Blamage der US Armee und damit Nixons zweitgrößte Blamage nach Watergate.

Sei bitte nicht böse, dass ich bei deinem Referat auch etwas inhaltlich eingegriffen habe.

fett = verbessert bzw eingefügt // [--] = Streichungen //
schräg = meine Einfügungen
