I remember a photo of Nixon's last day in office, during his resignation speech. In his audience in the White House was the young Ben Stein tears running down his face, while listening to the resignation speech.

link to article about Ben Stein

"Young adults who grew up watching The Wonder Years and Ferris Bueller's Day Off don't know that Ben Stein was at one time a Nixon speechwriter. They see his face and one word repeats in their mind: "Bueller... Bueller..."

"But Stein is more than just an actor who made this line famous as he played a nerdy, monotone economics teacher in both shows. In fact, he is a brilliant economist and university professor in his own right." (More at link)

Ben is the son of the late great economist Herb Stein.
