My first vote
QOTD“I think it’s based on racism. There is an inherent feeling among many in this country that an African-American should not be president.”It would be easy to say Jimmy Carter is a loser. Let's not go there. Rather, let's just say that Jimmy Carter sees the worst in people, things, etc. Malaise as (failed) president, and racism now.

My first presidential vote was in 1980 against Jimmy Carter. At 18, I sure didn't know diddly. But I was somehow smart enough to know that Jimmy Carter's blather was a loser.
I voted for independent candidate John Anderson in 1980, rather than Ronald Reagan. I have to admit, I don't recall the logic on that one. I can sort of assume that to a college freshman (me), Anderson was a more appealing, non-establishment candidate, but I don't honestly remember why.
And so, no Jimmy, most people aren't racists.
Most people simply and clearly disagree with a radical shift in how our country is being run.
Not too tough to figger out... easy as ABC.
anybody but carter... yow, bill
PS - williamt... not racist. He he.
