<span>General Ford,became VP after Spiro Agnew resigned (this includes the bribery scandal!!!) and became president after Watergate scandal forced Nixon in August 1974, he pardoned Nixon and pushed a very forceful conservative domestic policy, but was way more than a caretaker president when the respect for government was at an all-time low, thus being said, Spiro Agnew was only the beginning but it was the election of General Ford, and the pardon of Richard Nixon that really set America on edge! Hope this was helpful, have a great day!</span>
