U.S. Election Pop Quiz

I dropped by the Lords of the Blog site, just to see what was happening with the posting peers and found this nifty question, which Lord Norton took from the Times:

When was the last US presidential election won by the Republicans in which Nixon or a Bush was not on the ticket?

1928, when Hoover won.

Since 1928, the Republicans have won the presidential elections of:

1952 (VP candidate: Nixon)
1956 (VP candidate: Nixon)
1968 (Presidential candidate: Nixon)
1972 (Presidential candidate: Nixon)
1980 (VP candidate: Bush snr)
1984 (VP candidate: Bush snr)
1988 (Presidential candidate: Bush snr)
2000 (Presidential candidate: Bush jnr)
2004 (Presidential candidate: Bush jnr)
