History in this case is just a euphemism for the mistakes of less informed voters. Anyway, sorry about your cognitive dissonance, but if you're ever falsely convicted and sentenced to life in prison I would hope the exonerating evidence that comes to light 25 years later isn't dismissed by people who put their faith in history.

I'll put my faith in 71 years of history since he retired. The notion that somehow someone deserving was overlooked for 71 years does not resonate.
