        Jackie campaigned for Nixon in ’60 as an independent. Robinson became a Rockefeller Republican, rejecting Goldwater in 1964.

        Hank Aaron got bags of hate mail as he pursued Ruth's record. I'm sure Kaepernick's correspondence is similar.

        Say what you will about Nixon, but he a) knew or thought to write a letter, b) managed to sound thoughtful and honest, and c) NO CAPS.

        But Nixon's twitter feed was rife with spelling errors and enough monosyllabic words to make a first grader groan. Sad!

        Just like Trump, Nixon bragged about applause and implied that such applause affirms he is correct.
