Richard Nixon's Foreign Policy (Cold War - APUSH)
www.tomrichey.net
In this lecture, I explain the elements of President Richard Nixon's foreign policy (Detente, Nixon Doctrine, Vietnamization, Madman Theory, etc.) after offering a great deal of context in the form of a summary of US Cold War policy under Truman, Ike, Kennedy, and Johnson. Nixon's approach to the Cold War was a turning point in American foreign policy, turning the US away from the bombastic rhetoric and brinkmanship of the preceding decades. With the help of his Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger, Nixon took a pragmatic approach to improving the standing of the United States in the global balance of power. This lecture is especially appropriate for AP US History students, those taking US History at colleges and universities, and curious lifelong learners.

Hey! Thank you so much for your videos, they've really helped me to prepare for my AP exam. I really appreciate them and most of all they're really funny and make me want to watch more and more! Thank you so much!
Watching from Nigeria.. This is really helpful for the exams I’d be taking today. Thank you so much
Thank you very much Tom, you help French students to better understand American history, I got this part very well after watching your video :)
I love this one, Tom! "First and only, to resign. Said he wasn't a crook. But there were three crimes. Got out of Vietnam, but it took him awhile, awhile, awhileeeee, awhileeeee." kzread.info/dash/bejne/mZ6Iy7yLY7LUZtI.html
Good stuff, Tom: Automatic upvote!
THANK YOU THE HISTORICAL THEO VON
This is awesome. Over the summer, I am writing a Nixon biography for my school.
Great vid! It’s refreshing to actually learn about Nixons actions that didnt have to do with watergate or the gold standard.
thank you, matt damon
Tom you're great, love your stuff. You look like a combination of Matt Damon and Chris Pratt.
thank's a lot for this useful video !!
Nice synopsis Mr. Richey, ur visuals nicely punctuate ur points clearly (& the intercessary guitar riffs keep everyone's attention on their toes). U have Nixon smiling in his grave for highlighting the jewels of his career, China & Russia without touching the cloud of ignominy that hung over him for the remainder of his life after Watergate. Exactly the way he would like to be remembered, nice summary lecture, ty.
The 'Madman Theory' is reminiscent of the role of the jackal in Rudyard Kipling's 'The Jungle Book'.
Pimpin ain't easy, Slim Richey! Keep up the good work.

better red than dead is like don't tempt fate, a text can wait
this may be a stupid question, maybe i am lost, or maybe i dont get a history joke?....but at about 9:25 mins into the vid the slide says "Americans KIA". is that suppose to be americans killed or is that something that flew over my head. i really appreciate your video. i was so lost only reading my book. im so glad i found this video!
Speeding him up to 1.25 is sooo helpful ngl
Nice video Tom. Have you ever considered doing a series on the progressive presidents, namely Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson?
