Interested In Lyle's Opinion of Sarah Palin

[CFH]

Didnt read it in school,I was around for it
You take out the hostage mess,there is no Reagan Revolution,thats all anyone was talking about in 1979/1980
And the recession started in 1973 under Nixon with the Opec embargo

I can't help when I was born, and no offense intended but I'll take the opinions of experts who have spent their career's studying such things over the words of someone who happen to be "around for it". I don't for a second disagree that the hostage crises was very influential, but its not the sole reason Carter lost.

I'm also well aware of the OPEC situation, it starting under Nixon means nothing because it doesn't negate the fact that the Carter adminstration inherited the problems.

The "experts" have done a magnificent job of re-writing history, sorry it still stands,every reliable poll at the time had Carter winning the election without the Hostage Crisis
November 4 1980 Election
January 20th all Hostages released
January 20th Reagan Inaugural Address

What would a bunch of liberal, left-wing academics have to gain by re-writing history in favor of the Republicans? How exactly did they re-write history? Their interest is in facts.

So all my extremely liberal profs and the writers of the text books are all part of some right-wing conspiracy? ok....

What is a reliable poll? They are inherently flawed and far from reliable.
