Steve Ford, son of former President Gerald R. Ford, will keynote this year's General Session. Ford's unique perspective on life as the President's son encompasses a broad range of fascinating subjects: being 18 years old and having 10 Secret Service agents as constant companions; his father's pardon of President Nixon to help put an end to the infamous Watergate affair; two assassination attempts on his father's life and his mother's bouts with alcoholism and breast cancer. View video of Steve Ford.
