Thank you I remember it like it was yesterday. I worked for Goldwater and 64 it was an eye-opening experience. The Democrats are trying the same thing they did to Goldwater in 64 and that is separate the “extremist” from the rest of the republican party. Unfortunately it worked but today it’s not gonna play so well because Joe Biden is a terrible president
I regret to this day that I was too young to vote for Barry Goldwater in 1964. You had to be 21 back then.

One of the very best statements any American has ever made!
He was the first candidate for President I was old enough to vote for, and I’ve voted for every Republican candidate since, although in a few elections I probably should have stayed home and not voted.
