Your omission of Reagan, a two term hero, is obvious and your point is ridiculous. Both Reagan and Nixon had landslides, Nixon in the middle of a war. Plus whether you like the current Bush he has won two terms. I happen to have a number of his pictures in this house. Further, G H W Bush was a great president who disassembled the Soviet Union and won the first Gulf War. Johnson not running had little to do with Nixon’s initial victory. I’d take every republican candidate over Clinton, Carter, McGovern, Dukakis, Kerry - any day.
Gee, a sitting President decides not to run, and ‘it has little to do’. Novel notion.
By and large, as I so plainly said and you were unable to understand, if it wasn’t for Democrats, the Republicans, save Reagan, would not of been elected. Lastly, I don't 'take' anyone, not even Reagan. They work for me. I, and all citizens are superior to any elected official.
