Using the #25thAmendment, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1974 #NelsonRockefeller became vice president. He and #GeraldRFord are the only pres. & veep pair in US history not to have run for office, but to be appointed to their rôles. Pardoning #RichardNixon cost them another term in '76.

#NelsonRockefeller ordered NYS police to storm the Attica prison #OnThisDay in 1971, ending the #AtticaRebellion with a massacre that would be part of his dreadful legacy as governor of #NewYork; have we learned the lessons of this tragic #history...?

The 41st vice president of the United States, serving from 1974 to 1977 under President Gerald Ford, Nelson Rockefeller wrote, "America is not just a power, it is a promise. It is not enough for our country to be extraordinary in might; it must be exemplary in meaning." #NelsonRockefeller #America
