Presidential History Editor
I always liked Gerald Ford, despite the Nixon pardon, and the fact that he wasn't a great president in his 22 months there. On the other hand, what he did have going for him was a warm disposition, and the fact that he was not Richard Nixon. Here are some of my favorite photos of him, mostly from his Presidency. . .
