Simple question: once Nixon was gone President Ford came in and pardoned Nixon for all the stuff he'd done. Some people were upset and said this was just another example of rich/powerful people getting away with murder. Well not specifically murder obviously.
Ford's reasoning at the time was that the nation would suffer because they'd be too focused on the trial. So I guess I am wondering if you think Nixon should of been pardoned? I can't deny there is some logic to Ford's reasoning, but then I would also ask if this means that people should not be put on trial if said trial would draw massive amounts of attention?

NO. public officials should be treated more harshly when they lie to the public.

It's asking whether or not he should of been pardoned, what part about that doesn't make sense?
Also the question is simple, the answer might not be. It's simple in that it shouldn't be difficult to comprehend.
He didn't just lie he refused to hand over evidence and actually demanded a specific person be fired for continuing to look in it, and two people resigned rather then fire the guy before they finally found someone who would.
The evidence was recordings of conversations he had and he refused to give them over and then ended up only giving transcripts until finally he gave up the evidence. Which the last bit doesn't even make sense because it's not like he left stuff out of the transcripts so all the incriminating shit was still released.
That for me is the worst of what he did. He most likely didn't actually sanction the whole Watergate thing, but not only did he try to cover it up he tried to use his own power as president to circumvent the law. He didn't even do it on the sly,he just blatantly said "no I'm not going to do this".

You don't know the definition of public official, do you?
Anyone who holds authority over the public, given by the government, elected or not, is a public official.

But I do think that ELECTED Public Officials should be held to and treated more harshly for their crimes. But then if you break the law that person should be punished to the fullest no matter WHAT their positions are.
Like how Hillary should be NAILED to the WALL for her crimes but won't.

You shouldn't let them get to you. Also how are you posting if it says your account is restricted?

The regressive mods try to weed out any dissenting opinions. It's sad.
