Ford was a great man...He was a guy that didn't have a need for political handlers. He never took a poll before giving his opinion right or wrong it was his voice speaking for him. To Ford's credit...he was one of the few to beat Regan politically, he kicked butt playing football for Michigan, him and his wife saved half of Hollywood from their own drug addictions with their clinic, and he was drawn in an episode of the Simpson's. Not bad for one lifetime.
