I almost feel nostalgic for Gerald Ford. He was just a party hack, enamored of the status quo, a decent guy without visible vices thinking inside the box, little leadership capacity, not too big on the vision thing, but a breath of fresh air -- well, air freshener -- after Tricky Dicky stunk up the place. The pardon was both the most important and worst thing he did as President. Strange that he survived 2 assassination attempts in the space of 17 days, some sort of record, I guess. Squeaky Fromme: now there's a footnote from history.
