The election of 1976 was famously close and it looked like Ford might lose it for a while there. I doubt Carter would have done any better then Ford did with the absolute cluster-fuck that was the Energy Crisis, though he might have done better in the Middle East, as his Secretary of State term will show. With the Democrats unpopular under Carter, the Democrats probably won't win 1980, let alone in a 45-state landslide. Definitely no President Ted, Probably no Hard-Left turn like in OTL and you can kiss 16 years of Democrats goodbye. What happens to Reagan? ITTL, he might win the Presidency in 1980, as he tried to OTL. Your thoughts?
