A Head in the Polls

Later, Nixon's head announces its candidacy for President of Earth, using Bender's body to escape a constitutional provision that "nobody can be elected more than twice".

Leela successfully separates the sleeping head from the robot body, but Fry accidentally wakes Nixon.

Confronting the intruders, Nixon begins ranting about his future plans for Earth, such as breaking into people's homes and selling their children's organs to zoos.

The episode ends with Nixon on a rampage and crashing through the exterior walls of the White House.

Although Nixon is often remembered only as "Tricky Dick" the writers for this episode not only mocked his "ruthless drive" but also showed his resilience and relevance.

In addition to part of it taking place at the Watergate Hotel: There are several references made when they visit the Head Museum's Hall of presidents.

The scene where Bender's head uses a remote-controlled car to travel around Planet Express headquarters is reminiscent of the introductory sequence of Bobby's World.
