I try to be as honest and upright as Jimmy Carter, but it's a long hard slog.
I did a couple of posts and a video though:
Was anything Carter said in this speech wrong?
Why do they continue to berate him?
Opinion?

Happy birthday, Jimmy! You were the most righteous U$ president of the 20th century, no question in my mind!

Larry Bergan.
he was.
He had an awesome record on Job Creation, and actually tried pursuing human right in foreign policy. At least compared to other presidents.

I have NO idea why I said that to you. I had way too much to drink yesterday. I should stay off the darn internet when I do that. I think you're great!

...he was too good for us. He actually demanded real sacrifice for the greater good. "Keep your thermostats at 60" he said, "make more fuel interoffice cars" he said to Detroit.
Well it's a good thing no one listened to him. Yep, and that Reagan was all like, "no no auto industry, you don't have to make awesome fuel-efficient cars, consumption rocks" See, everyone talks about austerity and tightening belts, but he put his money where his mouth is.
