PORTLAND, Ore. —According to his family, Len Bergstein died
Monday night. He was 76 years old.

For the first time in U.S. history, a debate between major party presidential candidates was shown on television.

The presidential hopefuls, John F. Kennedy, a Democratic senator
of Massachusetts, and Richard M. Nixon, the vice president of the
United States, met in a Chicago studio to discuss U.S. domestic
matters.

Kennedy emerged the apparent winner from this first of four
televised debates, partly owing to his greater ease before the
camera than Nixon, who, unlike Kennedy, seemed nervous and
declined to wear makeup.

(Fox News) – Ken Starr, a noted attorney who helped impeach
one president and defended another from the same fate, died
Tuesday at age 76.  

In a controversial executive action, President Gerald Ford pardoned
his disgraced predecessor Richard M. Nixon for any crimes he may
have committed or participated in while in office.

Ford later defended this action before the House Judiciary Committee, explaining that he wanted to end the national divisions created by the Watergate scandal.
