Well he is right on one thing. But he presided over the longest stagnation of our economy too. But he is right about Obama
@Ron, please go away. Or at least try to stop posting crap.
I read you stupid article, did you? It says, "Now, things have gotten so bad for Obama that former president Jimmy Carter has called President Obama incompetent in the family-friendly pages of Parade magazine."
Nowhere did Carter say that Obama was "incompetent" as your hit piece claims. How do I know this? Because I read the the Parade article, too.
So please go away, or at least stop posting your drivel.

America is full of brain dead zombies who have no real clue what's happening in the world these days.
The American media is brain dead zombies too.
Everything in America has devolved into stupidness.
Brain dead Americans trying to run the world and simultaneously destroying it .....

The man legalized homebrewing,which singlehandedly started the microbrew industry.
He also approved subsidies for renewables,solar and wind .
HFH still remains large as of today. A great program.
Any of you donate your time ,skill and effort to build one single home for the less fortunate?
I doubt that.
A great man and POTUS.
What did your president do for you all?
Trickle down economics?
How did that work for you?

Carter was a weak and ineffective President. The American people recognized this and canned him after one term, limiting the damage to four misery-index laden years.
As far as Carter being a great man, post-Presidency, I just don't see that, despite the media trying awfully hard to fashion an image of Carter 180° out of phase to his abysmal performance as POTUS. They've reinvented him like they have Slick Willy Clinton.
I will say this much for him--- I would probably much prefer him over the current leading creatures in the Democrat Party; even today ,at his age

Relative to someone like Obama or Clinton , Reagan was a towering figure of greatness.
Even Carter was of monumental greatness compared to those unholy two.
I remember seeing a video of Carter walking up on a stage somewhere shortly after Obama was elected and it was clear beyond a doubt in my mind that Jimmy did not like Barry. His body language spoke volumes. Obama looked like he had been pied in the face. Pathological narcissists like Obama are always floored when someone rejects them for being the frauds that they really are. Carter was not the stuff of which good Presidents are made but he is no dummy, especially when it comes to people.
Despite the dictates of party loyalty it nevertheless must be very difficult for Carter whenever he's forced to be around Obama---lest he lose the contents of his lunch.

Ronnie Raygun was smart president.
He went home at 5:00 PM like normal people and watched re runs of himself on television.
That's why he didn't get gray hair like all the rest ......

My two daughters met President Carter last week. President Carter is the most influential and "world-changing" ambassador of peace alive today. I am so very grateful that my two daughters can carry forward this experience of a lifetime.

I voted for Carter BITD, but like I have with most presidents in my time, I got tired of listening to his speeches.
I have always admired his personal integrity, but he can get a bit sanctimonious.
I find it interesting, in today's political climate, how his religious beliefs get a pass from the usual suspects.

No he wasn't. Both he, and bush were the two worst presidents in my lifetime.

But his standing improves every year, with good reason.
Sure thing. Polls among historians and political scientists consistently put Carter in the bottom half of the line-up. This year's American Political Science Association poll ranked Carter 26th. He was worse than Reagan Bush Sr. and Ford.
Go Jimmie!

I remember this time in history. Shoot, we even had a hostage release party with flags posted up all over the inside of the house, a live band (the Clam Brothers), and 52 kegs. The Reagan presidency made everybody feel good about our country again, kind of like our party. But the day after; whoa, what a hangover!!

No doubt about it! His Contra policy lowered the price of cocaine in this country by half! Remember $15 8-balls? He was the unwavering conqueror of Granada! He slew Kaddafi's daughter! He cut and run in Lebanon after the Marine barracks bombing! He traded arms for hostages! He made a deal to sell missiles to the Ayatollahs to hold onto our hostages until election day! He was the only US president with the integrity to honor the dead of the Waffen SS unit that committed the Malmedy Masssacre! He was the epitome of integrity. Only 138 indictments of his administration officials!
And don't forget the economy! He created the Rust Belt single-handedly! It was the Reagan Economic Miracle: it was a miracle if you had a job!
