With a fervor that hasn't been witnessed since musicians in the late '60s united to protest President Richard M. Nixon..."

That was a bit before my time. How'd that end up working out for them?

That was before my time too. I'm 29. But I've never known any other representation of Dick than a fool and a liar. From old SNL skits to Halloween masks and Classic Rock songs, I have no idea how true these impressions are or what effect they may have had on his presidency.

In fact, until the death of "The Gipper" I never knew what that name meant or who he really was as our President. I had only a vague memory of him as a senile old fool with his finger on a nuke button (which I got from a Genesis video).

Just goes to show how much of an impression these musicians can have on the uninformed, as I used to be.
