I really liked Gerald Ford, I think he is too decent to pardon a criminal like Nixon.

I shouldn't ask but why do you hate Nixon that much? If he stayed in office, we would have won the war.

According to David Halberstam, the war was lost in 1968.

I think that makes him a war criminal.[/url]

I don't think Gerald Ford would pardon Richard Nixon today because not only is he no longer a president, but he is also dead. I do not think that dead ex-presidents can pardon other dead ex-presidents due to a deterioration of their manual dexterity leading to their inabiity do use a pen to sign the declaration of pardon.

I never have pardoned Nixon, or pardoned Ford for pardoning him.

If you betray your country and its ethic, as its leader, and are not genuinely contrite about it - burn in hell, Dick.

He did the right thing to pardon Nixon. It was necesssary for the good of the country.
