I actually voted for this man in '76. I was young and stupid (I had JUST reached voting age, first election I ever voted in), I was away at college so I was out of touch, and he was going to carry Georgia regardless of whether I voted for him or not (by over 500,000 votes), but the mere thought of my idiocy makes me turn hot and cold all over and swear under my breath.
Mea maxima culpa, y'all. I had no idea what I was doing.
Well, I'll require a pecan pie if I'm to forgive you. Mea culpas don't go to good with ice cream. :^)
PS...I doubt you were ever "stupid", just uninformed.
Well I was uninformed for sure, but I think most 18 year olds are pretty stupid. :-D
