It wasn't that Carter was a bad person. He was a conscientious, compassionate leader with a strong moral compass. But he lacked the stomach for the job; more importantly he lacked the nerve to stand up to the likes of Tip'O Neill, the Soviets, and to the Iranian leadership. Granted, some things were out of his control; perhaps if that Delta team hadn't crashed in the desert and carried out a successful mission, we would remember him more kindly. But a lot of other bad things happened on his watch that his administration was just too inept to deal with. Still, I'd take him over the current occupant anyday.

@@nope929 To be fair, he did finally manage to hammer out a deal with the Iranians in the Algiers Accords, but far too late to save his presidency. (The invasion by Iraq had a big impact on negotiations. Iran desperately needed the funds frozen in American banks to fund the war, and could not afford to hold out for grander terms.) The Iranians themselves did not release the hostages until AFTER Carter had left office as a final “F you” to Carter. Of clurse, it woukd end up being a Phyric victory for Iranians. The US never forgave or forgot the mistreatment of its diplomats or the high-handed way the Iranians negotiated. The Reagan administration poured weapons and funds to the Iraqis, and the 8-year conflict killed nearly an entire generation of Iran’s young male populace and led to more than a hundred thousand civilian deaths on the Iranian side.

They puzzled over this, what shell be done? Hamilton said let him reign for life, and let him choose his successor, Everybody called him a monarchist, rightly so. Shut the hell up hammy bone was there retort, you'll have influence over commerce and banking and growing the industry of our young nation, but supremacies to end end you and yours with a bullet in a fashion of Burr's. The question remains what is the presidency to put unneeded might be to condemn a future, to grant him all powers, might mean empowering a madmen ( cough Trump). Still what is the seat, and how much regency shell it hold? To paraphrase Ben Franklin, it is what it is, we believe it to be the best yet, but with all things it is its people to command.

Actually it was Bush II. Let me preface with everything i'm about to say that Reaganomics MUST BE ABOLISHED and a proper welfare state must rise in the US to restore the hallowed out middle class. That being said, The Neo liberal reforms Reagan made Actually saved the US from the crisis it was in under Carter. People tend to look back at Carters time as some golden age before Reagan came and destroyed everything but that is not true. The US economy in the 1970s was a dumpster fire, It's foreign policy was a mess, It's president had been a crook, there were riots for Civil rights and a major War had just been lost. Carter's presidency was one giant crisis and it shows. He might have been a great person but he was a shit president Regan and Bush I helped Usher in an American golden age that peaked under Clinton. I mean even the fact that Regan was elected to office twice on Historic mandates showed he was doing something right. The Digital revolution started under their reign and the Cold War was won. Regan//Bush are actually the best leaders the US has had since Eisenhower. Clinton inheritedd a budget surplus and an exploding economy, an unparalleled military and unrivalled diplomatic prestige. Which he maintained. The big issue was with Bush II. He blew it all off, first the inadequacies of his intelligence apparatus led to 9/11. He then started 2 of the most expensive wars in US history killing hundreds of thousands and burning the US's reputation He let China into the WTO (The biggest geopolitical mistake since Germany took the side of Austria Hungary) This last decision gutted the American working class more than any other. Manufacturing in the US literally died and then... 2008 happened and the decline became a tail spin Obama tried but he was ineffective, the political polarization that arose during Bush's era made his governance impossible And then Trump happened and now half a Million American lay dead.
