Started peace negotiations with South Vietnam while the Dem LBJ was still in office.
Nixon, that is, not poor WHH.
He didn't start negotiations, he sabotaged LBJ's negotiations by persuading President Thieu to reverse his position and refuse to attend. Nixon believed that the opening of peace negotiations would help his opponent, Senator Humphrey. Nixon got word to Thieu that if he waited, Nixon would be tougher in the negotiations than Humphrey would be. Nixon prolonged the war in order to get elected.
