The prospects of such trial will cause prolonged and divisive debate2 over the propriety of exposing to further punishment and degradation a man who has already paid the unprecedented penalty of relinquishing the highest elective office of the United States. ... Now, Therefore, I, Gerald R. Ford, President of the United States, grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.

B. The proclamation contributed to a general loss of confidence in President Ford.
C. The proclamation reduced political partisanship in the United States.
D. The proclamation showed the legislative branch's supremacy over the executive branch. E. The proclamation swiftly lessened social tensions in the United States.​
