Richard Nixon for President - 1992

"I never did anything wrong, and I won't do it again."

Certainly not the makings of a great campaign slogan, but it's the memorable line from Richard Nixon's ill-fated 1992 campaign for President. Never mind that Nixon himself wasn't involved — comedian and Nixon impressionist Rich Little and NPR's John Hockenberry teamed up to pull off the prank on the radio network's Talk of the Nation program. Befuddled listeners called in to let "Nixon" know just how certain they were that they didn't want to give him the chance to, um, not do anything wrong again.
