Richard Nixon is really underrated because of that damn Watergate scandal, but he did truly great things.

I will be the first to say that Nixon did a number of positive things, but Watergate canceled those things out, sorry.

My opinions of Truman went up slightly, though he wouldn't make my list of "great" presidents.  Jerry Ford has really increased in my eyes, both policy-wise and as a person.

Interesting... how come?

A lot his appoints turned out to be excellent, e.g., George H W Bush, Dick Cheney, Powell had an early appointment.

Economically, he looked like a disaster, until 1978 and the Carter debacle.
