Gerald Ford on Taxes - 1976 Election Ad

[umills00]

Yall crazy

[daved1974]

all he really did was finish nixons term had ne not granted him pardon he would have proably won a term

[SuperJimmyValentine]

Ford would probably be kicked out of today's Tea Party GOP as a liberal!!

[FRSFreeStatePlus]

I believe a lot of people who voted for Jimmy Carter for President in 1976, would like to have their vote back,

[kathCT]

I really liked President Ford, I hope he and Mrs. Ford are resting in peace in Heaven.

[v19d]

This ad also prove even in his administration on how different a full term Ford would of been.

[avien84]

One sadly underrated president.

[v19d]

@avien84 I would call it the Nixon curse on every Republican who lost in 1976. Remember watergate scandal.

[hojoleon]

14 grand in those days was a good salary? wow

[v19d]

@hojoleon It was. Ford was right about Jimmy Carter. I can also bet you the 14 grand person either was able to reitre years later or laid off due to changes Americans never thought would happen. But the truth is Manufacturing sector if nothing had change would be around to this day in bigger numbers making computers,DVD's and players,flat screens. Also a service sector would of been around to this day in bigger numbers. Yes folks if the far leftist haven't been in power then people would thrive.

[v19d]

@hojoleon Today's defecit would be 14 trillion surpluses. The left began America's decline starting in 1970 and they have used Democratic and Republican Presidents. Why do you think the majority of Republicans hated Nixon economics now his foreign policy.

[Hello59239]

This reminds me of Obama's tax ads

[quarf53206]

Gerald ford was a president that even if you didnt like him you at least respected him

[at1212b]

@quarf53206 I forgot who it was, a long time assistant all the presidents, and he said President Ford was the most Normal President (didn't have psychotic, psychopathic tendencies like the others) largely bc he never seeked the office. It is those that are 'crazy' enough to seek it, that are 'crazy' in other ways n stuff.

[FRSFreeState]

Gerald Ford probably could've made better use of the Tax Issue in 1976

[TheLizardKing1967]

@FRSFreeState And a better president to boot.

[FrsBigeasy]

Its good to see that High Taxes especially those on the Middle Class was an issue even back in 1976

[sandythebear]

Great classy guy right there

[JMMoosey]

Ronald Reagan should have been the Republican nominee in 1976. However, I am still grateful for his public service in the 1980s.  I think Gerald Ford is too much of a RiNO.

[plastique45]

@JMMoosey Yeah, and it only took the United States 12 years to fully recover from that B actor mongoloid's Reganomics. Good pick! Please don't vote in the future.

[MIKESOWELL]

@JMMoosey He was from another era, the Republican Party that he belonged to from the 1940's to 1960's was a completely different party than it is now.

[v19d]

With in a decade those men lost their jobs due to the policies of Richard Nixon. I believe Ford was a good man too bad he never achieved his dream of becoming Speaker of the House.

[TylerHinds]

I think he was a good man!
