Noone over 65 should be allowed to run for president or senate. If you arent gonna have to live with the decisions you make you have no business making them.

In order to be an elected official you should have to be between the ages of 40 and the age of social security retirement

It's tragic. Regardless of my feelings on the man and the left in general, I don't like watching an old person go down. We are all headed for this, so I have some sympathy. He should be hanging it up for his golden years instead being president.

He's been a POS lying bastard since he was a young senator. I'll laugh at his old lying arse falling if I want to. I'm not the nicest guy in the world but I'm a fair person. This isn't Mother Teresa falling.

Take it up with Cruella deJill. Her desire to be First Lady clearly overrode her husband’s well-being.

"One call, that's all"

That sandbag was further back on the stage than his path.

He fell plain and simple.

Ford was younger and tripped all the time


False

He was actually one of the most athletic presidents we've had

Ford attended the University of Michigan, where he played center, linebacker, and long snapper for the school's football team[18] and helped the Wolverines to two undefeated seasons and national titles in 1932 and 1933. In his senior year of 1934, the team suffered a steep decline and won only one game, but Ford was still the team's star player. In one of those games, Michigan held heavily favored Minnesota—the eventual national champion—to a scoreless tie in the first half. After the game, assistant coach Bennie Oosterbaan said, "When I walked into the dressing room at halftime, I had tears in my eyes I was so proud of them. Ford and [Cedric] Sweet played their hearts out. They were everywhere on defense." Ford later recalled, "During 25 years in the rough-and-tumble world of politics, I often thought of the experiences before, during, and after that game in 1934. Remembering them has helped me many times to face a tough situation, take action, and make every effort possible despite adverse odds." His teammates later voted Ford their most valuable player, with one assistant coach noting, "They felt Jerry was one guy who would stay and fight in a losing cause."[19]

During Ford's senior year, a controversy developed when Georgia Tech said that it would not play a scheduled game with Michigan if a black player named Willis Ward took the field. Students, players and alumni protested, but university officials capitulated and kept Ward out of the game. Ford was Ward's best friend on the team, and they roomed together while on road trips. Ford reportedly threatened to quit the team in response to the university's decision, but he eventually agreed to play against Georgia Tech when Ward personally asked him to play.[20]

In 1934, Ford was selected for the Eastern Team on the Shriner's East–West Shrine Game at San Francisco (a benefit for physically disabled children), played on January 1, 1935. As part of the 1935 Collegiate All-Star football team, Ford played against the Chicago Bears in the Chicago College All-Star Game at Soldier Field.[21] In honor of his athletic accomplishments and his later political career, the University of Michigan retired Ford's No. 48 jersey in 1994. With the blessing of the Ford family, it was placed back into circulation in 2012 as part of the Michigan Football Legends program and issued to sophomore linebacker Desmond Morgan before a home game against Illinois on October 13.[22]

I remember when Bush sr got sick at some conference.

The fairies in the media wouldn’t shut up about it.
