Ford's legacy is still debatable, IMHO, and not because he didn't know that Poland wasn't then a free country, but rather because his pardon of Nixon gave us four years of Carter...
I do hope that the Ford family has a modest burial, lest comparisons with Reagan's funeral be made.
Which then gave us eight years of Reagan.
Glad he had a long and rich life. RIP.
I hope that the Ford family has whatever funeral they want to have including a full state funeral including procession, lying in state at the rotunda, procession to the graveside....if that's what they want.
I'll also take a moment to tip my hat to Betty Ford. I'll never forget her courage in going public about her alcoholism and the way she's handled her rehab including the Clinic. A strong woman who was married to a good strong man.
Lastly, thank you President Ford and God rest your good soul.
