I'm sure you're just making a joke but I hate to see liberal media stereotypes get perpetuated. Ford not only was a star on two national championship teams but had two offers to play professional football.
OK, OK, but it has been often pointed out that tall men sometimes bump their heads on aircraft passenger doors.
I mean holy smoke I never said Gerald Ford was clumsy. Outside of declaring in 1976 that Poland was a free country, nothin’ like that.
Years ago when Ford was president (or maybe just “retired) I stayed at a family friend’s house in Vail with my parents. The house was used by the Secret Service, and was next to where Ford would stay.
On a low door leading out of the kitchen was a note taped to the molding: “Mr. President - Please watch your head.”
I always figured he might have gone to that house for briefings or a game of cards with the guys. Writing about it now, I wonder if it was just a funny way of warning about the low door.
