HI, Tomorrow, a rare opportunity to view the 1997 film called Elvis Meets Nixon. Dick Cavett narrates the beginning. The film, though exaggerated, is actually based on a true story. Elvis Presley, bored with his confined existence in Graceland, leaves his home on his own for the first time since he was 21. He winds up in California and is convinced by an Anti-war activist that he is responsible for the drug culture through his influence on The Beatles. This convinces Elvis to write a letter to President Nixon asking to be made a "Federal Agent at Large" for the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs. No such position actually exists, but Nixon, wanting desperately to win over the youth of America, which he views as hating him, decides to meet with Elvis in an attempt to improve his image with the "kids". If you haven't seen it, you should. Thanks, patty No more hurting people----PEACE Martin Richard
