I remember the skepticsm that swirled around Ronald Reagan at the time from my liberal teachers and the media. They were in denial that Jimmah Cahtah was going down in flames. The election of 1980 represented a new era of hope for many of us in the post-Vietnam,post-Baby Boom generation.
That bozo shiiithead from plains ga was one of the worst presidents in memory, however the arkansas bubba might have edged him out for that title. Other 29th century shiiithead presidents, wooodrow wilson, franklin dummino rooosevelt, lindon banal johnson, trickeydick nixon, gerald ford... see a patern there? Ooops, left off Warnen G. Harding, while he wasnt any good, didnt do the republic any harm either.
