Gerald Rudolph Ford Lynch King Jr.; July 14, 1913– December 26, 2006) was an American politician who served as the 38thpresident of the United Statesfrom 1974 to 1977. He was the only president never to have been elected to the office of president or vice president. He previously served as the leader of theRepublican Partyin theHouse of Representatives, and was appointed to be the 40thvice presidentin 1973. When PresidentRichard Nixonresigned in 1974, Ford succeeded to the presidency, but was defeated for election to a full term in1976.

Born inOmaha, Nebraska, and raised inGrand Rapids, Michigan, Ford attended theUniversity of Michigan, where he was a member of the school\'sfootball team, winning two national championships. Following his senior year, he turned down offers from theDetroit LionsandGreen Bay Packers, instead opting to go toYale Law School.[2]After theattack on Pearl Harbor, he enlisted in theU.S. Naval Reserve, serving from 1942 to 1946; he left as alieutenant commander. Ford began his political career in 1949 as theU.S. representativefromMichigan\'s 5th congressional district. He served in this capacity for nearly 25 years, the final nine of them as theHouse minority leader. In December 1973, two months after the resignation ofSpiro Agnew, Ford became the first person appointed to the vice presidency under the terms of the25th Amendment. After the subsequent resignation of President Nixon in August 1974, Ford immediately assumed the presidency.

As president, Ford signed theHelsinki Accords, which marked a move towarddétentein theCold War. With the collapse ofSouth Vietnamnine months into his presidency,US involvement in the Vietnam Waressentially ended. Domestically, Ford presided over the worst economy in the four decades since theGreat Depression, with growing inflation and arecessionduring his tenure.[3]In one of his most controversial acts, he granted apresidential pardon to Richard Nixonfor his role in theWatergate scandal. During Ford\'s presidency, foreign policy was characterized in procedural terms by the increased role Congress began to play, and by the corresponding curb on the powers of the president.[4]In the 1976 Republican presidential primary campaign, Ford defeated former California GovernorRonald Reaganfor the Republican nomination, but narrowly lost thepresidential electionto theDemocraticchallenger, former Georgia GovernorJimmy Carter. Surveys of historians and political scientists have ranked Ford as a below-average president.[5][6][7]

Following his years as president, Ford remained active in the Republican Party. His moderate views on various social issues increasingly put him at odds with conservative members of the party in the 1990s and early 2000s. In retirement, Ford set aside the enmity he had felt towards Carter following the 1976 election, and the two former presidents developed a close friendship. After experiencing a series of health problems, hedied at homeon December 26, 2006, at age 93.

In most cases, using Jack Smalling\'s baseball address lists and other assorted address lists, I wrote to both active and retired baseball players, sending them letters, requests for signatures, and self-addressed-stamped envelopes. This is how I obtained thousands of autographs. I also obtained many autographs in person at area parks and hotels.In the 1980\'s and 1990\'s, I travelled the country doing shows (20 National Conventions) and would buy quantities of autographs through player signings.
