#1 Is it just me? I've noticed that everytime a US President dies, so does a major black Entertainer very close thereof...now President Ford and James Brown; President Reagan and Ray Charles?!! If this is happening in 'threes', who's next... Carter and B.B. King?

#2 Jesse Jackson? Oh, entertainer. Well he is fun to watch.

#3 President Fords last fall can inspire Rantburg to new heights through the creation of an official Rantburg Dead Pool.

#4 Gerald Ford was arguably the greatest athlete to serve as President.

#5 Cater and OJ Simpson would be a more apt pairing.

#10 Ford pardoned Nixon. That was the most important thing he did for the country. Other than that, he was a declinist who presided over the collapse of South Vietnam.

#11 Zhang, he didn't have much choice, given that the Democrats overrode his veto of their bill that cut support for the South Vietnamese. He tried, but he wasn't going to create a constitutional crisis for the sake of Vietnam.
