The piece questions whether Agnew was framed and compares gifts and favors in politics. It notes Goldwater calling Agnew framed and suggests broader issues of gifts, payoffs, and corruption across states.

The author argues the line between courtesy and crime is unclear and defends the system rather than Agnew alone.

Appoint a reliable substitute executor and arrange pre burial plans with a funeral director to carry out instructions.
