    Nixon was a Great Man.

    Like Jesus, or Ghengis Khan, or Hitler.

    This is a terrible logical argument. I don't know if it's true that he was honest and kind as a president but his desire to be remembered as such does not make him so.

    It's only bias if it's against the Republicans. If it's in their favour, the term we use is 'fair and balanced'.

    No, that's a bunch of crap. Ford pardoned Nixon to protect Nixon and the Republican party.
