re: #318 The Vicious Babushka

I can remember photos of Kennedy and Nixon on a bulletin board in first grade. I don’t remember much about that election, but of course I remember the assassination and the aftermath.

In fifth grade, our teacher (a Canadian) went around the room and asked everyone who they favored for president. I didn’t know anything about politics (all I cared about was The Beatles) so I said the same as a friend that I thought was smart - Goldwater. I still regret that…
