Yeah, I was a long-hair in a logging town. There weren’t many of us. Wasn’t old enough to vote for Nixon. First voted in ‘80....after Carter conceded.

Takes me back. I was the only long-hair in McDermitt, NV in the summer of 1975. The mercury miners were great, the Indians didn’t give a crap, but the cowboys were a pain. I was barely old enough to vote in the 1976 election, but I knew enough not to vote for Carter.

I was disappointed Reagan lost to Ford in the Republican primaries in 1976. When I first heard him speak on TV, I told my grandpa he should be our president. Grandpa got pretty upset at me for such political heresy ....
