What are 2 ways a policy entrepreneur could assist Nixon with his motive to implement a new foreign policy?

Meaning what are two hypothetical ways/examples a policy entrepreneur could have assisted Nixon with getting something from his foreign policy agenda done? I already have one way.. which was planning that trip to China in 1972 but i need two more.. go into detail please! oh btw, a policy entrepreneur is a person who invest their political "capital" in an issue. one can be in or out of government, elected or appointed positions, or in interest groups thank you =)

1. In 1972 there was a price freeze on sugar. It ended up backfiring by producing shortages and severe inflation. The other was an oil embargo that put the US in its worst energy crises for oil and resulted in super hyper inflations (gas went up to $ .54 a gallon and this was pre- unleaded days), and people were left pushing their car to the pump. Pumps had a set amount of gas and once it ran out, it was gone. History has shown us that there were no real shortages for gas nor sugar, just political stances against the countries that were producing these products. I hope this helps you and is what you were meaning.
