Petra Rocks

 Okay, that one didn't work, so I 'll try a differant one. In what election was the phrase OK used as a slogan, thus helping cemtent it in popular usage?

Actually it did work. I found it that same hour but wanted other people to post. Nobody did and I forgot to get back to it.

Here is what I found.

Very interesting I hadn't known that.
