1979 tracks with me too. I was 21 in ‘79 and a student at The University of Texas because they had the nearest school of pharmacy to my hometown. I’d voted for Ford in ‘76 for my own reasons but didn’t really have a political leaning. As I walked from class to class on the UT Austin campus I had to pass Iranian students protesting against MY country every day. I actually found a group of like-minded fellow students in my pharmacy classes who were also outraged that these people were behaving this way on OUR soil even though they had taken refuge here and were being paid to attend MY school. In that year, at that time, I discovered I was a hard core conservative and patriot. Haven’t wavered since. With every attack by these moslem hooligans I’ve become more firmly entrenched in the belief that they all need to either meet Jesus or allah and stay in their own countries to do so. Scourge of the earth.

And from 1979 - not quite a 1972 but pretty, nonetheless.

That s a very good observation (Because I made the same one myself)

Jimmuh Carter got us into this mess. He should have left the Shah Of Iran to do what he always did, to keep these muzzies in line.

Now, the world has to do it- with liberals on our backs screaming at us to move forward, while actually impeding our progress.

I’ve read that 1979 was the peak and beginning of the decline of US industry.
