I wasn’t alive for these events and I am possibly missing context. But I just see an inflection point in the 60s and I don’t know if another term from Carter in 1980 would have been enough to turn things around. I also feel like he was a less impactful character than RFK

The main turning point was 1971, as referenced by the website (https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/).
Nixon was the president then, and the main force was that the economy was decoupled from the gold standard
Edit: president
Nah that was Nixon. If RFK had been elected, withdrawn from Vietnam earlier and not been corrupt, things may have gone differently
