To who? I think it said a back room deal was made in selecting


Ford as veep. I don’t think the country thought any more than that, and it punished Ford at the ballot box.

I have never met a sole who thought it vindicated Nixon. Or read or heard such an assertion from anyone. Or who think it placed him above the law any more than any other happy recipient of presidential pardons.

We want to make a run at presidential pardon powers? That could actually work - both parties hate it when the other holds the Oval Office. So maybe dems should start pushing for that while they hold it.
