    America at that time was very conservative. Then Nixon was exposed as a criminal and Ford pardoned him, which was a hell of a one-two punch to the psychy of your average American at the time.

    So the next guy the got to vote for was the most Christian innocent candidate they could get their hands on. But that’s now who they really wanted. They loved Nixon, everything about him, they just didn’t like that he to ot exposed as a criminal.

    So then comes Ronald Reagan, the actor.
