You can tell by the bumper stickers for various Presidential candidates. (May I just say - Fred Harris? Birch Bayh? Jerry Brown? And to think some people thought the Democratic candidates this year were a bunch of nobodies.) Click on some of the other years for a bit of nostalgia and the occasional guffaw (Reubin Askew?). Via Mark Schmitt.
Posted by Charles Kuffner on July 07, 2004 to The making of the President | TrackBackThe sad thing is that I remember many of the 1976 bumper stickers and signs.
Damn I'm old. :-)

Before she discovered the "Canciones di me Padre" and "Recipes de Cheesecake con Cherries di me Madre" looked pretty darn good in hotpants and roller skates........Dammit. I dated myself again, didn't I?
Oh well, while I'm at it, I always had a thing for Karen Valentine from "Room 222". I think she once dated Paul Tsongas.
