A lot of Reagan on this thread...
You think anybody from the RNC is listening?
I came to the US from Germany in May of 1974. I had no political interests whatssoever. Watched the Nixon Watergate mess and could not figure out what the big deal was. We lived in Colorado Springs at the time and I got two newspapers, one liberal, one conservative. After a while the conservative paper made more sense.
When Carter ran, my husband voted for him. I told him that he made a big mistake, just my gut feelings. Husband saw the light after the hostages were taken. He became a Republican, voted for Reagan. I could not vote until 1984 and it’s been for Republicans ever since.
