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

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.

what are the choices btw if it was me id say the lack of money to continue with education
