Ford was named the President because he was the VP when Nixon resigned. Many speculate it cost him the reelection. I don't think it would be in Hillary's best interest to do so.

I think she may move a motion in the congress to reward him for a life time award for serving the cause of humanity by taking on the Terrorism in spite of the opposition from people like you.Historians would judge him correctly ,may be after a decade or so for his bold steps to contain terrorism,when other lesser men of authority just marked their time and kept postponing it.Nothing personal but just a point of view like you have.

Pardon Bush? In order to get a pardon you have to be charged, tried and convicted. None of those have happened. Vader, slowly step away from the Crack pipe.

I think lipsticker has a point. How can you NOT pardon a guy named "Scooter"?

Pardon him for what? You cannot pardon someone unless he is charged with a crime. What crime do you think he's committed?
I don't like the man and think he's a bad President. But I haven't seen anything he's done that can be called a crime.

Pardon him for what-he hasn't been charged with the crimes he SHOULD be charged with.

Pardon him from all the "incriminating evidence" she and the democrats has against him but never uses because it doesn't exist and he hasn't done anything illegal that congress did not approve of as well.
If he actually done something illegal you better believe they would have taken it to higher courts already. Bush has done nothing illegal. Maybe things other people do not agree with, but that does not make his actions illegal.
