Question 3 • TX-US History Studies Since 1877 B-Credit Recovery Summer School

Nixon refers to “seeing the constitutional process through to its conclusion.”What does this phrase mean?

Answer
A
The process of granting executive privilege
B
The process of removing a president from office through impeachment
C
The process of investigating Watergate.

Explanation

“Seeing the constitutional process through to its conclusion” refers to allowing the constitutional procedure for dealing with a president to finish. In the context of Nixon and Watergate, that process was impeachment, which could result in removing the president from office. So the phrase means the process of removing a president through impeachment, not granting executive privilege or simply investigating Watergate.
