    Carter didn’t run in 1984, it was his Veep Mondale.

    If people remembered how bad Trump was we wouldn’t be worrying about Biden’s age.

      Wait, that’s about Mondale? Oh, yeah, the math checks out, I guess. Mondale was the most milquetoast pick, there was no pull outside of MN. No wonder he had a landslide. How could getting shot three years before have that much of a draw?

        You’re kidding, right?

        You really don’t think that surviving an assassination attempt, after JFK, MLK, and RFK all died, wouldn’t be a big deal?
