I knew I liked Jerry Ford

Former President Gerald Ford revealed in interviews to be published after his death that he had trouble with the Bush Administration's warrantless spying program, and that Dick Cheney did not turn out to be the asset to the Administration that he had hoped. My progressive/liberal friends have always given me grief that I feel Jerry Ford was not only a good man, but also an underrated President, given all that he inherited. We know that, even in his 90's, the man had the critical thinking skills I wish we had in the White House today.
