Reagan sucked it up and chose Bush. Sometimes you need to compromise to win.

He didn’t choose Bush. The party shoved Bush on him if he was to expect their cooperation. It was he either took on Bush as VP, or the Republican Party would not play ball. The party was just as elitist then as today, only they were more discreet about it.
