re: What kind of legacy?
I've seen lots of TV programs about the fall of the Berlin Wall, about the Cold War era, about Gulf War One where the various US presidents and their advisors were interviewed.
I wonder if journalists will be able to interview the current president as well, for programs about the War in Iraq. (What happened after Nixon resigned, BTW?).
Even if somebody cannot become president anymore, he's going to want to leave the White House with dignity and honor...but with all that's going on....
