Gerald Ford

Hey did you guys know that Ford was the one and only pres to not be elected to either the Presidency or Vice President?

I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up Mingez! I'm surprised no one else was keen enough to pick up on that

I was a young kid when he was president. All I do know is that he had an interview a year before he died with the agreement that it not surface until after his death. I'd like to see that in it's entirety (not the CNN edited version )

Yeah, me too. He confirmed what many people suspected for years: he pardoned Nixon simply because he was good friends with him, and didn't want his "friend" to live with that stigma. Not at all a good reason for a president to act. Personal life should be totally separate from political life and actions. Like Bill Clinton....oh, wait....:? :redface:
