I don't see why this makes the election itself especially consequential; that seems like a thing that happens around that time regardless of who's running To me the matter at hand is how much the county's (or world's) trajectory meaningfully changed because candidate X won instead of Y. Well, that skyrockets FDR/Hoover on the list, and I did give it some thought (for the #4/5 spots where I put the Nixon elections) but I concluded "yeah but there's no way Hoover could win re-election in those circumstances." I think it's just a matter of how you look at it, I respect your take on this. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:950969353] in Most conse...
