By the looks of Carter's 2nd term election, this Reagan guy must have really sucked.........assuming America appears to have been real unhappy with Carter's 1st (and last) term.

I just have to say more. This post flabbered my entire gast.

The 1980 election map is suddenly evidence in a debate on the records and merits of the two presidents under discussion? That is **** astounding to me. Is that you "bringing it?"

Seriously, was that a solid effort at contributing to this thread? The Ayatollahs and Mullahs in charge of Iran held the American hostages until the day Reagan took the oath. Google, "Optics" at duckduckgo.com, kid. Reagan unfroze their assets, took no revenge, snd sold them military equipment and technology in violation of the law. Google, "Quid pro quo" at bing.com, son.

Now, then. You done googling? Okay, that explains the 1980 election. Perhaps YOU will explain how that election map in any way buttresses or undrmines one side of this argument or the other?

Seriously, I am genuinely curious to know in what way you see that election map as relevant evidence in the debate at hand. I'm on here a good bit, so I'll see your reply if there is one.
