See if you can find sharp American cheese at your deli. Cooper and Schrieber make a sharp American. Land O' Lakes makes a sharp cheddar American blend. I've had the latter, it was fantastic.

Hard cheeses, yes, if you cut well around it. Soft cheeses, not so much. This, of course, only applies to mold that the cheese grew after you bought it, and not any from its curing. How do you tell the difference? Devilish rhinoceros.

Only the six point ones.

Plastics are wonderful in certain use cases. Medical, yes please. Automotive, sure. Several layers of packaging on a plastic toy that's also bound together with plastic wire, no thank you.

That's not at all how that played out.

One, John Anderson ran as an independent in 1980, after losing the Republican primary. He had been a Republican until then. Early in that primary, he was a viable candidate for the nomination. He was initially likely to take more votes from Reagan than Carter.

Anderson supported the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), as well as an extension to the time for it to be ratified. The Republican party did not. Carter refused to debate Anderson; Reagan did not. On top of all that, at the time, the conventional wisdom was that Carter was a weak president, partially because of the still-imprisoned diplomats in Tehran, and a failed attempt to extricate them - which Carter took full responsibility for. This set of later circumstances probably took more votes from Carter. All that said, Reagan swept the popular vote by almost nine points, and took the electoral college handily.

Source: I was there.

Yeah, blahaj, don't bother. There's an elevated amount of odd positions that are popular there, and don't you dare question them.
