Ford, in hopes of preventing (or at least delaying) the Reagan Revolution. Carter without hindsight.
This is such a stupid line of reasoning.
Call it what you want, it is true that Reagan most likely would've never became President had '76 gone the other way. I wouldn't be surprised if there were Republicans out there who wish either Gore or Kerry won their respective elections for the sake of preventing Obama from becoming President.
With that said, I voted Ford in this poll also because I think he was better equipped to deal with the sh**tstorm that was the late 70s than Carter was, even if the end result would've only been slightly better.
