In another thread, we are pontificating on the general use of political slogans, "Make America Great Again", in particular.
Notwithstanding said discussions, it occurred to me that we haven't (and in the case of the GOP and Trump, intentionally haven't) even got a reference point. Just when was there this "America, The Great" that we want to get back to.
The poll is based on the calendar. I've tried to clump the decades together, somewhat, e.g. 1950 to 1970 covers a lot of territory, but is generally considered the post-war "boom" years.
Please support your choice with a narrative. Why do you think the particular era you chose is representative of When America Was Great and Why We Should Get Back to That Era.
Note for Trumpistas: A) You're evil and we all know it. B) You are going to be out there supporting KAGA, so you're required to answer "Since Trump's Inauguration". But I've included the antebellum 19th century just to give you pause.
The choices, in reverse chronological order:
Since January 2017.
2000-2016
1975-1999
1950-1975
1940s (WWII and immediate aftermath)
1930s
1920s
1910s
1880-1909
1865-1880
1861-1865 (Civil War Years)
1820-1860 (antebellum America)
1770-1819
Think of it as Westworld with multiple options. If you could go back to a time in America when it was actually GREAT, where would you pop up on the time line?
