Many if not most people reading this Article are bound to wonder if he is related to ex-President Richard Nixon....and yet the Article does not inform them. Therefore I have included this information. Perhaps the information might be more appropriately located elsewhere in the Article, but it should nevertheless be included, again because of the sheer volume of readers who are bound to wonder.
So though he's not related to Nixon through his Nixon line it looks like he's probably related through an "Inskeep" line: http://www.nixonlibrary.gov/virtuallibrary/documents/whsfreturned/WHSF_Box_10/WHSF10-16.pdf
As you can see on Richard Nixon's ancestry he's a descendant of John Hussey an Ann Inskeep, which leads back to a John Inskeep of England. You can see on 67 the line John -> John -> Abraham (ancestor of Jay Nixon)... This line is a quaker line.

I removed from this article the section 'Penn Valley College incident' detailing an event in September 2010, where two people were stabbed by a student at a school where Nixon was shortly due to speak, who reportedly believed he was attacking Nixon. I assume this was included as an 'assassination attempt', but it actually seems fairly unimportant: Nixon wasn't present at the time so was not in any direct danger, and it's not completely clear if he really was the intended target. It seems excessive to mention it in an article that's supposed to be about Nixon's life and political career, but for anyone curious the incident is still mentioned at Metropolitan Community College (Missouri), the school in question.

Wow. Shouldn't this article have a section describing his role as governor during this crisis? It's pretty significant. And there is no lack of reliable sources. Thoughts? Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 17:02, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

I removed the information because it does not pertain to the governor himself. His actions were dictated by the laws of the State of Missouri and has not done anything wrong personally. The post I remove tarnishes the reputation of the Governor, and it akin to libel.

Seriously, this article is shit. Wtf is going on? Why is there so much content in this article, and so few citations? Where the hell are people getting ANY of this information? If people do not provide citations for the content they submit, then it ought to be reverted. IDGAF if it's positive, negative, neutral, etc. I'm considering just deleting a whole bunch of shit, because it's almost entirely unsourced. How t.f. is one supposed to quickly verify that any of this is legit? I'm going to notify a bunch of people who have contributed to this article that they need to include credible sources. If anyone else adds unsourced and unverifiable claims, don't deal with fixing that shit, just revert it. This is f-ing stupid.
