Reagan reveals Agnew discussed stepping down to Cabinet

Gov. Ronald Reagan says Vice President Spiro Agnew privately discussed the possibility of leaving the 1972 ticket for a judicial or Cabinet post. He recalled 1956 talk of Nixon being dropped for a similar path and noted Agnew had not committed to any decision.
