Report: Former #Texas governor sabotaged #JimmyCarter in #Iran hostage crisis

Former Texas Gov. #JohnConnally (R) met Middle Eastern leaders in 1980 to convince Iran to delay releasing American hostages — part of an effort to sabotage then-President Jimmy Carter's re-election campaign, according to a New York Times report.

#RonaldReagan's subsequent presidency ushered in a conservative era. If Carter had secured the release of the hostages, he might have won instead.
