-->'''Richard Nixon''': roar
-->'''George W. Bush''': of
-->'''Ronald Reagan''': the American
-->'''Ronald Reagan''': progress
-->'''Lyndon B. Johnson''': and

-->'''George W. Bush''': has

-->'''Harry Truman''': to
-->'''Richard Nixon''': an end.
-->'''George W. Bush''': All the

-->'''Bill Clinton''': technology
-->'''Richard Nixon''': that
