1974-1977 Gerald R. Ford Granted a pardon to President Nixon a month after taking office "for all offenses" committed during Nixon's administration. Inflation, largely caused by Arab oil price increases, triggered a recession that put 8.5 million people in America alone out of work in 1975. The effect was felt all over the Western world. About his private life: Would anyone have listened to any young woman if Gerald Ford would have had a casual affair with her?
38 Gerald R. Ford Born: July 14, 1913, Omaha, Nebraska. Party: Republican. Age when inaugurated: 61. Term: 1974-1977. Ford became Vice President after Nixon's Vice President resigned in disgrace, and President after Nixon resigned. His pardon of Nixon was unpopular, probably costing him reelection. Famous Fact: Ford is the only President never elected President or Vice President.(Source: scholasticnetwork.com)
