I can not see how anyone would have pardoned him otherwise. Perhaps if Nixon had done some time for his crimes, subsequent presidents would have thought twice before engaging in the same type of behavior.

Ultimately it was important for the country to move on from the ordeal and a pardon was the only way to make that happen.
