Robert Parry has been writing about Nixon's election campaign sabotage of the Vietnam peace talks for years. He made the rather witty remark that it went from "conspiracy theory" to "old news" without ever having been widely reported.

Johnson asked Walt Rostow to personally abscond with the files on Nixon so as to thwart Nixon's attempts to find them. Rostow eventually sent them to the LBJ library with a request to keep them sealed for another 50 years. Instead, the library began declassifying them in the 90s. It might be hard to believe this stuff, but there it is, all documented.
