I remember watching footage of him falling down the stairs while getting off a plane, he got up and had a good laugh, I think he was a pretty down to earth guy and could see the humor in those kinds of situations - R.I.P. ------------- Imagine there’s a picture of your favourite thing here. |

We'll he actually kinda was. He is the longest living president so far. He lived to be 93 years. |

Rest in peace. Now there's just Carter, Bush, Clinton, and Bush II that are left... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America. It is forced and the democrats are behind it, with the goal of eugenics at its foundation." -FreeEnterprise, 21 April 2011. Yup, he actually said that. |

Let's not forget he was tough enough to ignore the masses screaming for Nixon's head on a platter, keep level headed and make the right decision no matter how bad it seemed at the time. -------------

MBro- those were campaign stars, not bronze stars. He served onboard one of the new fast attack carriers in the war; that ship took part in strikes supporting most of the amphibious assaults. They weren't the 'bronze star' valour decoration... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Yeah, ESPN just did a thing on him. He was offered to play starting center for Green Bay and New York, but chose to go to law school.
Nah, Carter just walked into a mess, and had some really, really bad luck. -------------

I wish I would've seen that. I'm sure it will be on later though. I know he was the center for Michigan for one or maybe two national titles. ------------- <Removed sig for violation of Clause 4 of the New Sig Rules>

I heard a great, short bio on him on cbc while I was driving today. Quite the guy.
When you're the president, and those who are running opposite of you say things like "in all my years, I never once knew Ford to lie, or stretch the truth" etc....you know he was a good guy. I mean cmon, the people of the opposite party were praising him at the time...thats impressive. |
