Into law by lincoln five years earlier and the only one in that original group founded in lincolns home state. Indeed one of the reasons i was drawn to come to illinois last year to take the job as law dean is the prospect that the university of illinois can build upon the legacy of, and become linked with lincoln in the way the university of virginia is associated with Thomas Jefferson. Who to my mind was not as great a president and not as great a person. This brings me to a fourth question, w...

Meeting. And i had the luxury of time, two fulltime assistants. We looked at all the contemporary coverage of the pardon, got all the memoirs, got the legal memos from the ford library. I kept going back to interview ford. And to try to piece together what happened. I interviewed him in colorado a number of times, where he had a home, and many times at his main home at rancho mirage, california. I remember the last interview asking him, why did you pardon nixon . He said, you keep asking that qu...

Well, it happens to me too often. So i went home and got out the speech. And there, in plain english, obama says, yeah, wars sometimes necessary, but then he said it is always an expression and manifestation of human folly. And i realized at that point he just does not like war. And the problem is, when you ...

It was exactly in the tradition of my brothers book profiles in courage. And then gerald ford got up and talked about partial vindication. I remember watching this and thinking here i was convinced it was an act of maximum corruption, that the pardon was. And then it is examined many years later, dispassionately. And what looked like corruption actually is an act of courage. And that is sobering for somebody in my business. You can say, oh, yeah, this is the following this war made no sense. Thi...

If you do it right, get the parody and make it look like one of the things thats somehow funnier, because it subverts your clappings to the movie to watch documentaries.

Let me start with the obvious, what is your assessment of him and his commitment to this . Thats what i was most curious about and why i wanted to hear from him. On the face of it, why would the countries richest, most valuable tech company pick a fight with the fbi over a terrorist cell phone . It seems strictly insane. From a pr point of view. Apple has a huge commercial steak with privacy and secretly which are its product but talking to him, it was clear this is something he feels passionate...
