Question

Why did Gerald Ford face a difficult election in 1976? A. Jimmy Carter was an unusually charismatic speaker. B. Ford couldn't raise enough money to run a serious campaign. C. Ford refused to pardon Nixon. D. Ford faced a severe recession in the nation

Answer 1

The answer is D if anyone was still wondering. Going to start answering more questions. Started looking around for some quick answers and found nothing relative or correct. Have taken an exam in the past with the same question.

During this time the economy was getting ready for one of the biggest declines in history.

Answer 2

I would coose b. Carter was an unusually charismatic speaker. In their first debate, Ford won by exposing Carter’s inexperience. Later debates showed Carter as the better debater giving viewers an idea that he had something to give to the country. This enabled him to win the nomination and become the next U.S. president.
