Nation: But Can Reagan Be Elected?
(5 of 5)
As the political situation stands at this moment, a Reagan-Baker ticket could offer a worthy challenge to Carter-Mondale, who after all managed to defeat the Republican ticket in 1976 by only 56 electoral votes. If the Californian can hold the states won then by Ford, the switch of only a few states, such as Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana or South Carolina, out of the Democratic column could make the "unelectable" Ronald Reagan the next President of the U.S.
