a friend of mine, a US Marine, had similar take. “I was told if I voted for Goldwater I would be sent to Vietnam. I did and I was.”

I knew about Goldwater but wasn't sure. He lost to LBJ in 1964 just to put the Vietnam War comments in context for me. I was just 4 years old.

Although I DO remember when JFK was assassinated.
