>>The radical islamic faction would have had a foothold much sooner...Carter’s stupidity is what we are living with today. It is what ultimately led up to 9/11
Indeed. This was in my mind as an 18 yr old voter, voting for first time, just outside of Boston.
Same here. I missed the window (was 17) to vote in the gen during Ford/Carter..but was of age for the gen. During Carter’s disaster I started becoming ‘politically aware’ and could see what his disasterous policies were doing. Anyway...when that day hit, the poll judges couldn’t find me in their books and I told them (in a not too friendly voice) that I was NOT LEAVING until I got to vote...
Do you remember the absolute joy you felt when the results came in? This time around will be the same way...like a breath of fresh air!
