Gerald Ford actually said...

"This country is based on freedom-freedom from government oppression, freedom from fear of war, freedom of a healthy, strong, burgeoning economy."

"I am advised by the Department of Justice that this 'shop-book rule' is clearly in the nature of a procedural rule."

"I believe in a country where the people rule and the government responds."

"I am here to tell you that the state of the United States is good, America is great, and we should all be darned proud of it."
