Now honestly I don't really know what Nixon truly accomplished other than establishing a positive connection with the commies, creating the republican image, and lowering the crime rate. Honestly his efforts I found to have a positive step but it's legacy doesn't seem to hold well in today's world (other than watergate). FDR I see as being the man who helped boost us out of the depression and creating stabilization and prosperity (though that is largely due to the war).
That's my take.

LBJ and FDR where pretty awesome. My quote was talking about the people who FOLLOWED Nixon. Both LBJ and FDR preceded him.
