Gerald Ford dead at 93

It was a long life and an honorable one.

Ford, himself a replacement for a VP who resigned in disgrace, became President after Richard Nixon resigned in August 1974. He pardoned Nixon, an act for which he was vilified, but which in retrospect may have been the right thing to do.

He was a good man who did what he felt was right. Rest in peace, Mr. Ford.
