Former president Gerald Ford died today at age 93.
Ford ascended to the presidency after the resignation of Richard Nixon. He pardoned Nixon, an act that was unforgivable to a large portion of the American population, who wouldn't forgive Ford and instead elected the peanut farming noob Jimmy Carter as president in 1976.
Ford had the distinction of being the only president to never be elected.
