It's very unlikely. I don't think anyone elected in 1976 would've had a good Presidency. In hindsight, I suppose we probably would've been better off if Ford had won that year. Reagan almost certainly would not have been elected and a Democrat almost certainly would have been elected in 1980 (and perhaps all throughout the 80s). Even if Democrats lost 1976, a two-term Democratic President elected in 1980 would've led to a radically different country (for the better, in my view). I do wonder what Democrat that would have been. I wonder if it could've been Ted Kennedy.
