Is this a good time to remember that Reagan illegally made a deal with the Iranians to not release the hostages until he was sworn in? Fucking asshole.
You are a good hombre, Jimmy Carter.
Fun fact: I was moving to New Jersey from FL the week of the election and did not vote. Only time I missed one since my first for McGovern.
Carter was a flawed politician, in part due to his deeply-held values, but like Mark said, Jimmy Carter was maybe the best person to ever hold the office of President of the USA.
Carter was also the subject of one of my ATM favorite SNL skits.
This guy's in trouble. I think I better try to talk him down. Peter, what did the acid look like?
He was a rare breed regarding the brand of honesty in a President who was also a "reluctant hero" in some respect that includes service outside of the role of the Presidency. I can probably count the total number on one hand ... with Washington & Grant being the penultimate.
Jimmy Carter was definitely one of our best presidents, he should have also won the Nobel Peace prize for Camp David. The Carter Foundation spread fair and rational elections across the globe, they unfortunately could not solve the problems with our 2 party election system, but it was not without trying. Habitat for Humanity homes are sometimes the only homes left standing after a hurricane. I wonder if we will ever see another Jimmy.

If it wasn't for that
If it wasn't for that sandstorm in the desert outside Tehran, the world might be in a much different place.
And the guy was instrumental in building a lasting peace between Israel and Egypt.
