One of my favorite All In the Family exchanges:
ARCHIE BUNKER
[Maude refuses to get out of Archie’s chair] Well, I got the secret weapon that can lay this little lady right away. Here we go. This country was ruined by Franklin Delano Roosevelt!
COUSIN MAUDE
You’re fat.
ARCHIE BUNKER
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but Franklin Delano Roosevelt...
EDITH BUNKER
Archie, you promised never to say that name again in front of Maude.
ARCHIE BUNKER
Franklin Delano Roosevelt!
EDITH BUNKER
[to Maude] He don’t mean nothing. His whole family was for Roosevelt.
ARCHIE BUNKER
That was for two terms. But that was it. We didn’t know the guy was going to hold on to the job like a Pope!
You made one heck of a memory catch with that, it sounds like the writers knew the numbers were, which is surprising.
Today that kind of voting knowledge is not common at all, in fact, knowing such things seem to be discouraged today.
