“My first vote in 1976! 🙄”

Mine too. Alternative was Ford. I was a Reagan Democrat who jumped to Carter when the Gipper lost.

Carter over that Warren Commission stooge any day of the week. The Democrats gave Nixon only Ford as their veep choice for a reason.

We got Reagan four years later. It would have been Ted Kennedy after eight years of GOP nothingness.

I don’t mind my vote for him. Hearing how Ford may have been in on the Nixon coup doesn’t exactly make him a better choice.

It wasn’t my first vote but certainly the first for a democrat - couldn’t vote for Ford. Don’t recall details now but something to do with the Mayaguez ship and Cambodia. Ford didn’t know where Cambodia was...spoke as incoherently as Kamala does today.
