What did Americans think about ford when he took office as president?
Ford was appointed vice-president after Spiro Agnew resigned. So, when Nixon also resigned, Ford became president. He had been a respected Republican leader in the House for many years, but he had never campaigned for president. Most people, I think, had a "wait and see" attitude. He was expected to follow the Republican agenda and pretty much continue Nixon's policies. I don't think anybody expected any radical changes in government. Nobody really had a good idea what kind of President he would be.
Was President Nixon impeached as a result of the Watergate scandal?
Yes. President Nixon was impeached. However, we first must define impeachment. Impeachment is the trial that Nixon went through. He was found guilty (obviously guilty) and was therefore impeached. After he was found guilty there were discussions on whether to "fire" him from his job as president but Nixon quit before anything could happen. He therefore was able to keep the benefits that any former president would have and (sort of but not really) save face.
