Gerald Ford
Former President Gerald Ford died during the last part of 2006. Coincidentally Ford giving Nixon the pardon was my first political memory. Not that I remember what he said, I was just a kid and he was using legal / political speak.
Religiously I'm an RCIA Catholic. I was confirmed in 2004. And I spent most of the prior life as a fairly strong Protestant.
Politically, I was a Conservative Republican for throughout my teens and early twenties. Then I became disenchanted with politics in 1993 or 1994 - shortly after Clinton beat Bush-41. I became interested in politcs again in 2002, except as a Moderate Democrat instead of as a Conservative Republican. I had changed that much and politics had changed that much.
