Carter was a 1 term president and everyone at the time thought he got most things wrong but wasn't a bad guy. He got very unlucky with the hand dealt to him on the economy & foreign policy. The US had high unemployment & double digit inflation which he didn't really get to grips with and then there was the soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the Iran hostage crisis. But on the same hand he achieved the Panama Canal deal and a peace deal between Israel & Egypt. And his presidential charity has been waaaaay more successful than he was in office.

Sounds a lot like Canadas Trudeau He was fundamentally too nice to be President. He was unwilling to play dirty, cheat, or do anything that wasn’t totally above board, and as such, the Republicans were able to dog walk him his whole four years. But he dedicated his post-presidency to public service and was still building homes for Habitat for Humanity well into his 90s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds a lot like Canadas Trudeau This was probably his most famous speech I think. right in the middle of in his era inflation and long lines at the gas pump Jimmy was a very introspective guy..... so yeah his message didn't really go over well when people were struggling financially. Not too unlike today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeCool 1,011 Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 I would add as well Jimmy was ahead of his time in regards too solar energy.
