A very different outcome if the Nixon administration had been allowed to invesigate 'Watergate'

I like time machine and going back in time storylines--In the world of movies, they usually aren't very complex, but in reality, imagine a spiderweb of separate strands and what would happen if one strand were altered and what might be the possible implications for future events.  Now imagine that when the first accusations came out against President Nixon, he had been allowed to have his Judicial Department investigate what we now know as 'Watergate'.  Do you think they would have allowed the truth to come out? The truth which eventually exposed the serious illegal actions of the President, brought about impeachment proceedings and forced him to resign?

Reason tells us 'no'. Yet, the Obama Administration is insisting that they be allowed to investigate the events surrounding Benghazi, the IRS targetting political opponents and the illegal wire tapping of AP reporters.

WHO in their right mind thinks NOT appointing a special prosecutor to investigate is a good idea????  Let's hope our elected leaders in Washington will do the right thing and do their job to make sure this is investigated properly.
