Fifty years ago this week, President Nixon signed into law the National Cancer Act.
The goal was to invest in medical research with the hope of finding a cure for cancer in just five years.

Tricky Dick wasn't the worst POTUS. I have 3 daughters with cancer issues. 2 have breast cancer and one has 2 different ones in her colon. The doctors beleive they have them under control. So, I do appreciate what he started, I just wish he hadn't been paranoid. Oh, while I'm a lib, I liked Nixon for a lot things; the only real exception is for what he let the GOP do to the small american farmer for Reagan's benefit.
