The anecdote about discussing streaking on the Mike Douglas Show in 1970 needs backing up. The term "streaking" did not come into public use until 1973 (per Wikipedia article).

I used to hold membership in the Nixon Library. Not anymore. If she has a right to support Obama, I have a right to not be a member of her father's library association. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.179.10.254 (talk) 17:07, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

I removed a See Also link to Obama Republicans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.230.164.82 (talk) 01:19, 14 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Many parts of this article sound as though they were written by Julie or someone very close to her. This might want a bit of cleanup/revision.--75.164.155.194 (talk) 06:28, 25 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's certainly badly written: "She has expressed distaste in a few adaptations of presidencies" and "Checkers, a dog attributed to her father's career" for example. This is not properly expressed. Someone should at least clean up the prose. Jgstringer (talk) 11:39, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Not to mention calling her "Julie" much of the time. I'm not sure if it's the adulatory tone or that this so often happens to women that gets me more. 50.210.149.122 (talk) 22:14, 21 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Suggestion for a minor change

edit

This comment is based on this version of the article ... which is date-stamped "12:46, 15 July 2019". That was the latest version of the article, when this sentence was being typed in.

I understand that the title of the article is "Julie Nixon Eisenhower", and that that has been her name since she got married (...which, according to [the third paragraph of] the "Marriage" section, happened on December 22, 1968).

The second paragraph of that "Marriage" section mentions a debutante ball in 1966, at which she was [quote:] "presented as a debutante". However, it does not sound right [to me] for that paragraph to be using the name "Julie Nixon Eisenhower" to refer to her.

She was still single in 1966. At that time, her name was [still] "Julie Nixon". (which is also the name shown in the Infobox, where it says "Born") (... and "née" means "Born").

So ... wouldn't it be appropriate, (in that paragraph -- the second paragraph of the "Marriage" section ... which is talking about an event that happened in 1966), to refer to her by the name "Julie Nixon"? (or ... maybe just as "Julie") -- ? --

Just an idea. Any comments? --Mike Schwartz (talk) 08:13, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Book about Pat Nixon.

edit

This line in the page is incorrect: “Eisenhower wrote a 2007 book about her grandmother, Pat Nixon: The Untold Story”

The book was written by Pat Nixon’s daughter, Julie Nixon, not Jennifer Nixon. 64.99.242.190 (talk) 02:01, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

I just did a search of the article's text and can't find that sentence anywhere. The article appears to be correct. - Special-T (talk) 14:39, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
