Seems it is easy for some of you to throw stones. I can see that Carter got in over his head.. but am still trying to figure out how he became this evil person to many of you. Heck Reagan did more damage to the gun community that Carter ever did. Carter is a good Christian that tried to make a difference....

Research Carter and the Middle East after he left office. Look up what happened to interest rates and the economy when he was president. There are more than just gun issues...

The guy was a buffoon and was in way over his head.

That sort of moderate talk will not fly around here, bub!

I sort of agree. Carter couldn't get anything done, and did some things that were negatives. It is true what you say about Reagan and gun control. I certainly don't love Carter, and I think he was a worse than average president, but not one deserving of the level of hate some show.

I think he caught some fallout blame by being the Democrat that followed Nixon/Ford. I also think he is well within living memory to many people, who recall him as one of the least liked Presidents of the last 40 years, but who weren't alive when other more deserving choices were in office, people like FDR or Johnson.

(And I sort of admire Johnson as an executive and wheeler-dealer, even though his policies were disaster.)

People seem to have forgotten a few things about Carter.

Pro-Palestinian and anti-Semitic:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/...AR2007011901541.html

Carter colluded with the Soviet Union to try to keep Reagan from being re-elected:
http://archive.frontpagemag.co...cle.aspx?ARTID=21736

Carter spent his career propping up brutal dictators and legitimizing their regimes:
http://www.thegatewaypundit.co...-10-worst-dictators/

Carter went to North Korea in 1994 and personally convinced Clinton that NK would never make a nuclear weapon. He is personally responsible for the past 20 years of oppression of the people of North Korea:
https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/160858

There's more, but it makes the claims that he was just a hapless, good natured Christian laughable.

I was in high school from 1976-1980. These were my "informative" years. I always saw Carter as sort of wimpy. What clinched it for me was the Iran hostage crisis. I voted in my first Presidential election in 1980. Wasn't a difficult choice at the polling place.

To me he is still the worst president. Anyone remember the inflation and interest rates? According to him we were at fault.

He could not even correctly pronounce the word nuclear.

One of the largest mistakes made under his administration was implementing of the Department of Education.
Took control from local school boards.

A prime example of engineers being smart but having absolutely NO common sense.

It's almost sad how many get "nuclear" wrong but Jimmah had his unique way of butchering it and it was ugly.

1) The Fall of Afghanistan to the Russians and carters ineffectual response led to the rise of Al Queda and OBL.
2) The Fall of Iran to the Islamic fundamentalists and the lack of any response has led to 40 years of terrorist expansion.
3) The 1 China Policy- China will take back Taiwan.

Those are just 3 quick ones. Carter might of been a nice guy but he was a disaster for America.
