Gerald was indeed a Ford, not a Lincoln.

And Carter was an Edsel.

When I think of Jimmy Carter (which is very rare) a ford pinto comes to mind. Actually his policies and pronouncements are more like Ralph Nader's comments about the corvair "unsafe at any speed."

I sometimes wonder of Ford were elected over Carter, if he would have been asleep at the wheel while Iran and the Shah went down the tubes.

As I remember that election I wasn't impressed with Ford or Carter so I pulled the Libertarian lever.

And Carter was an Edsel.

More like a Yugo. Or a Chevy Vega, the car that rusted on the showroom floor. Or a Renault LeCar. Or a Suzuki Samurai.
