Where we're you when Nixon resigned?

I remember there was an enormous backlash against Gerald Ford for pardoning Nixon after he left office. It possibly cost Ford a second term in office. But I was relieved when Ford presented the pardon. The idea of a former American president in prison stripes is not something I wanted to envision then or now.

Ford paid a steep price, but I think he did the right thing.
