Political Trivia for July 26
Today's question comes (again) courtesy of cqpolitics.com, and it's a tough one:
How many years after the historic Nixon-Kennedy debates in 1960 was the next debate between the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees?
No googling, just guessing. If you have a trivia question to suggest, email it to mojotrivia@gmail.com.
Update: As two commenters correctly guessed, it was 16 years later, in 1976.

Sounds right to me. I almost forgot about the Poland joke and would have gone with Reagan/Carter in 1980.

My instincts say the next debates were Carter-Ford in '76.
