Well, Ford's been dead for 2 years. Your post is a bit thin on other details.
If you are referring to Ford's pardon of Nixon... Ford's pardon of Nixon got the country moving forward and beyond. Nixon was a petty and paranoid criminal. Ford pardoned him for offenses against the United States. If Nixon were to be tried for acts against other countries (such as the secret bombing of Cambodia), the pardon wouldn't affect that. Ford committed political suicide to get the country past Nixon -- that's not dangerous and immoral, that's patriotic.
If you are referring to something else, say it.
ADDED: Actually, Ford pardoned more than just Nixon. He pardoned Tokyo Rose and a whole bunch of non-famous people, too.
