Elvis the Federal Agent

So I stumbled upon this website today [Nixon Library] that I found very interesting. We usually think of Elvis as this rock 'n roll star that ended up a little heavy at the end of life. What you don't think of is Elvis as a self-proclaimed expert on drugs and Communist brainwashing that had aspirations to be a federal agent!

In fact, I always thought of Elvis as kind of a slow person that had the music and the moves, but not the brains. Actually, when you go to the site, you'll notice he was even a little into himself and that handwriting...well, let's just say he would have made a great stereotypical doctor.

Additionally, who was that huge of a fan of Nixon? Elvis, my opinion of you as The King just kind of fell through the floor. Regardless, you need to check this out. Look through the letters and photos especially. They are priceless. I guarantee you'll come out with a different opinion of him. I can only imagine a world with a drug bustin', Communist russlin' Elvis. At least it makes for a humorous image...
