Answer:
B) Ford failed to lower inflation.
Explanation:
One of the major factors in President Gerald Ford's loss in the election of 1976 is attributed to the "failure to lower inflation."
Before Gerald Ford became President of the United States, the Johnson and Nixon administration heavily spent on the Vietnam war. This spending led to increasing in the inflation level at the time Gerald Ford became the president.
However, his inability to manage the level of inflation caused him the Presidency in 1976 against the Democrats nominee Jimmy Carter.
