When Reagan lost the nomination in 1976, Newsweek, or Time magazine wrote: "He will be sixty-nine after four years. Too old to run." Four years later we were made to understand that "life begins at sixty-nine."

The second after Reagan gave his convention speech at the convention the hall know they made the wrong choice it should have been Reagan in 76z. With that said Reagan’s time was four years later.

After Ford pardoned Nixon.....he was never going to beat Carter...
@Le_Curé1998
I was in junior high school in '76 and this was the first election I followed. The results that year were very close. Ford won more states (27) than Carter did, including California, but Carter won more electoral votes. In the end, the difference was less than 2 million popular votes.

Reagan may not have been a great actor, but he was a perfectly competent one. He expertly deployed all the tricks of his trade in his greatest role, as an American politician.

I was there that night. I was 15, eyes wide sitting with my father who brought me to start “growing me up”. Little did anyone know, least of all me, that we were watching one of the greatest presidents of all who won hearts, but lost the politics. Four years later…❤
@mrlarry271
The 1976 election was close even with all of Ford's issues. If Reagan had got it probably would have won.

If Lee Oswald had lived he would have been old enough to have ran for president
@dylancloud97
The sitting president typically gets it lol

Ronald Reagan was like a hollow wedding cake consisting only of the icing. It looks so delicious and so ornate, but once you bite into it, you realize you can’t get any nourishment from it. This “cake” was only the sugary exterior. And if that’s all you eat, it’ll make you feel sick.
@nathaniellathy6559
Lesson was don't try to be like opposition. Better to nominate a true alternative to other Party 🥳.

Ever since reagan became president the US has gone down hill.
@WayneAspey

Rockefeller in his elitist true self. Ripping a sign from someones hand. Real classy
@trucking604
I liked President Ford and Rockefeller.
@richardsasso8043
Reagan lost the battle and won the war
@Raven-lt1xz
Both Trump and Reagan are great but it is so different in my opinion
@JohnRoland
Ford is one of our best and most underrated POTUS
@Kieranpokemonsisliterallyme
Back when the republicans were liberal and had some class before Reagan ruined the party.
