The Gates

Three of them. The Gates that have changed the world over the last few decades.
Watergate, Bill Gates and Robert Gates.

The Watergate political scandal which happened in 1972 led to the only resignation of the President of the USA. Richard Nixon, the 37th President was forced to resigned on 9th Septem67ber, 1974 for his direct involvement in the Watergate break-in of the Democratic Party's Headquarters.

Bill Gates is famous for Microsoft and his global viral infuence with IT tecchnology which has placed Windows in almost every office and household all over the world.

Robert Gates, the current Secretary of Defence of USA has been involved in the military and secret intelligence almost his entire career since 1967. His roles have shaped the world by engaging in the various wars and human conflicts. With his pending retirement later part of 2011, hopefully the world will be a more peaceful place.
