I was never really a “Democrat”. But, the comparison between Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter made the “R—Conservative” a lifelong mission!

I gotta say, supporting Carter in 1980 had to be my low point. What was I thinking? It was like Battered Wife Syndrome. Maybe if I kept supporting him, he would get better...

I share your pain. I graduated in 1980 and voted for the first time. I was politically unaware, lived in New Orleans, and thought I was supposed to vote Democrat. I joined the USAF in 1983 and became a Reagan apostle soon afterward.

I realized I was always conservative, but I just never gave it much thoguht until I realized my mistake in 1980.
