All my adult life I've thought of Reagan's election as the turning point that set the US on the road to hell, but I've forgotten plenty of the details and some of the ones you cite I never knew, like the details of the 1978 Bellotti decision. That particular Court was also responsible for the Bakke decision, which kneecapped, though it did not kill, affirmative action in college admissions. I didn't start to appreciate Jimmy Carter till after he'd left the White House, so thanks for laying out his achievements so clearly.
