While that was a portrayal of Ford, it was not him that voiced the character. And you really should refrain from making peanut-gallery comments like that, please. You do it in every other thread that has something to do with American politics. Though I Canadian myself, I feel that you are being disrespectful to not only the memory of Gerald R. Ford, but to the United States. Please, please stop attempting to make off-the-cuff remarks. You make the rest of the Canadian players here who don't, look bad.


Having said that, the loss of Gerald R. Ford is a sad one. As was said in some articles about him, he was an honest, loyal and true man. And he was exactly what the United States needed in a leader after Nixon. One can only dream what he might have been able to accomplish, had he served longer than his 2yrs in office.
