Many of my liberal friends would argue about the wisdom of Ford's pardon of Nixon. The article linked here puts his position in his own words.
I for one have always felt that he did the best he could with a miserable situation. It may well be that this one decision cost him the election in '76, but I don't think so. Ford will neer be known as one of the great presidents. But he was a steady hand at the wheel during chaotic times.

Long ago did I pardon the pardon and remember Gerald Ford today as a kind and peaceful human being, who found himself in a place he didn't plan to be, entertaining a decision he didn't plan to make. Personally, I've learned from him.
