Not just presidents, I think back then people were more accountable and could and would be punished for a wide range of offenses, then the do-gooder brigade came along and tried to make excuses for people and the rot set in from then on.
My teacher at school said numerous times, "if you can't do the time, don't do the crime", we were expected to behave properly and faced consequences if we did not. I was in year 6 at the time so last year of primary.
