A little history lesson for some of us. I was definitely not into politics in 1964, I was college freshman football player more interested in maintaining my scholarship than anything else on election day. But I lived through the campaign, remember how people saw Goldwater as a shoe in, and can't help but draw parallels to 2024.

Goldwater was willing to use nuclear weapons freely. claiming military leader could use as they felt necessary, especially in Vietnam. That would have been a disaster for the world.
BTW, this was my first vote in a Presidential election. I have voted in every general election since, almost all by absentee ballot.
