Tradition

The other day (December 31st), I went to see Gerald Ford Lying in state at the Capitol, in the Rotunda. No matter what you think of the president, I was proud to see that our country has such a great military tradition. The Honor Guard was incredible to see, and the flag-drapped casket was truly a spectacle. I was proud to be part of history

Ford

Now here's the thing, I was never around for Fords Presidency and I never knew much about it. But the few things I know, they sound good. So here's my verdict: Gerald Ford was a good President, a great person, and a better leader.
and also, i like his decision to pardon Nixon. He took many steps to hold this great nation together and that was one of the best.
