An Amazing Fact About Presidential Elections That Lasted Sixty Years, 1948-2008

I'd call this "trivia," except that it's too historically significant to be trivia; it's simply an amazing statistic that you'll need to self-verify in order to believe:

How many Presidential elections between 1948 and 2008 (not including 1948 and 2008) had a Republican Ticket *without* Nixon, Dole, or Bush on it?

Answer: One.

Look it up.

If we add Roosevelt and include both Tickets, we can go back to 1928 and the answer will be Two (1948 and 1964) - that's eighty years!

This is presented as interesting, historical fact, and isn't subject to partisan commentary. Sorry. :)
