Some of the pros to pardoning Nixon that President Ford would have considered included:

  • It would allow the nation to heal and move on.
  • It would allow the nation to focus on current issues.
  • It would heal the rift that had formed between Nixon supporters and dissidents.

Some cons to pardoning Nixon:

  • It would portray an image of Presidents being above the law.
  • It would decrease the popularity of President Ford.

<h3>Why did Ford pardon Nixon?</h3>

Ford felt that the nation's attention was too much on the Watergate issue when other matters needed attention. He also felt the issue was dividing the nation.

When he pardoned Nixon, a lot of people were outraged as they felt that Nixon had escaped justice. This led to a loss of popularity for Ford.

What was Alexander Hamilton’s view of the national government
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Hamilton wanted a <em>New </em>National Government

Explanation:

Hamilton wanted a new national government that had complete political authority. He disliked state governments and believed that they should be eliminated entirely. In fact, Hamilton believed that the perfect union would be one in which there were no states at all. Hamilton drafted a proposal for a new national government that would centralize power but still allow states to retain many of their rights and individuality.  He strongly believed that the best form of government was the British system, which consisted of a strong monarch, an assembly of aristocrats called the House of Lords, and another assembly of commoners called the House of Commons.
