Describe a Goldwater-Wallace-McGovern voter?

[Ban Birth Control]

Any ideas?

[TransfemmeGoreVidal]

Isolationist John Bircher angry at Nixon over China who thought that at least McGovern would be less interventionist.

[TDAS04]

A 21-year-old jock turned on by the militaristic rhetoric of his guy in 1964, felt attracted to George Wallace’s anti-intellectualism four years later, and transformed into a complete hippie and peacenik by age 29.

[ReaganLimbaugh]

Bi polar person.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Wallace and especially Goldwater had non-negligible countercultural support, which might have trickled to McGovern on vague anti-establishment pretenses (though other parts of it went on to found the Libertarian Party).

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Someone who flipped anti war in 1969 because of My Lai or protests.

It’s not that uncommon for young people to experience sharp shifts in ideology. (Just look at this forum, lol. Adolescent Republicans that become complete lefties within two years, a libertarian-minded agnostic who suddenly turns into a devout follower of a particular Christian tradition…)
