The Iran Hostage Crisis in 1979 had a strong effect on President Carter's approval rating. Iran released the hostages the day Ronald Reagan was inaugurated.
The approval rating of President Carter dropped just prior to the 1980 election due to the Iranian hostage crisis. Carter was head of an unsuccessful rescue attempt.
The only issue they had during his election was who would've been his vice president because of the political systems back then.
Carter lost re-election because of the taking of US Hostages in Iran, and US inability to secure their release. I would add to that, a horrible recession, high levels of unemployment, and out of control inflation.
He was an outsider to Washington Politics
Jimmy Carter was the 39th President of the United States. He became the president because he wanted to make the government competent and compassionate for the citizens.
In 1976, Jimmy Carter (Democrat) ran with Walter Mondale and defeated President Gerald Ford (Republican) and running mate Senator Robert Dole. Vice President Nelson Rockefeller (R) was dropped from the ticket, because he was considered too moderate for the party. In 1980, Ronald Reagan (Republican) and George H.W. Bush defeated President Jimmy Carter and Vice President Walter Mondale. The answer to your question is: NO. Former Governor Ronald Reagan (R) defeated President Jimmy Carter (D) in the President election of 1980. The two Never ran together. They belonged to rival political parties; Democratic and Republican.
One would suspect it was because he lost the election
Because it was the first election of an American president.
President Obama won the election because the democrats had the most votes.
If the vacancies are due to the death, resignation or removal from office of both the President and Vice President, the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, if qualified, resigns from the House, becomes President, and appoints a new vice president, subject to congressional approval. If the vacancies are because the winners of the presidential and vice-presidential elections have not yet been determined by Inauguration Day, the Speaker of the House becomes Acting President until the election winners are determined. If the House Speaker is serving as Acting President when the winner of the vice presidential election has been determined but the winner of the presidential election still has not yet been determined, the Vice President takes over as Acting President until the presidential election winner is determined.
None, because it wasn't an election year.
No one, because it wasn't an election year.
