What are 3 promises Nixon made in 1968 election campaign?

yeah, during the 68 elections it was all about ending the war and nixon campaigned he had a "secret remedy" to end the war. At the time the war split the country in two and there were riots and it was ugly, but the country voted to end this dead end war and elected nixon. His "secret" was never revealed and it took him four years to get north vietnam to the bargaining table. Even after nixon left office the war was still continuing, and what was it, maybe 1974 before we were able to get out? The other two promises were to be tough on crime and reduce taxes and our foreign oil dependence.
