Why, after the crushing defeat of its candidate in 1964, was the conservative right in america able to achieve a

landslide victory for ronald reagan in 1980? was this victory the result of a difference between barry goldwater and ronald reagan or what is the result of changes that had occurred in america and the world in the intervening sixteen years? explain.

President Ronald Reagan´s victory can be explained through the prism of president Jimmy Carter´s failures and mistakes. Reagan and the conservative right were successful in depicting Carter , a Democrat, as "soft" with Communists, making his human rights-first policy that had banned arm exports to dictatorships that violated human rights in the Third World a particular target of their criticism. They said it had allowed communist insurgencies to make progress. Then there was Iran, the Islamic revolution and the talking of American hostages at the American embassy; Carter ordered a rescue mission that turned into disaster. Reagan and the conservatives painted an image of a world where the US was in retreat and communism was on the offensive, and blamed Carter for that.
