This day in history

I had forgotten about this. On this day in 1970, Elvis Presley met with President Richard M. Nixon in the Oval Office to discuss fighting drugs. The meeting occurred after Presley wrote a six-page letter requesting a visit with Nixon and suggested that he be made a "Federal Agent-at-Large" in the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

Rather ironic in that Presley later died from an overdose of prescription medications.
