No worries, thanks!
Same here I was in college, it was my first presidential election and I pulled the lever for Anderson. Even though I was a big fan of his now visionary energy policies and my Republican dad put solar panels on the roof it was the crisis of confidence that irked me that November day. I still regret that vote to this day.
His reinstatement of draft registration lost him the support of the youth (including me at the time). Has enough been said about that particular blunder?
It took decades to recognize Truman’s virtues as a leader. I think history will be mostly kind to Obama.
Jimmy Carter is a true Christian man, and I am an agnostic,. He embodied Christian principles in his post presidential decades of efforts in disease prevention and housing for the poor. What did Dubya do, but paint pictures of his feet in the bathtub? And impoverish this country with his fraudulent, ruinous war, killing hundreds of thousands of people in Iraq and creating Isis? Jimmy Carter is a noble man. He will not be long with us, and may he rest in peace.
If it makes you feel any better, I think Raygun beat Anderson and Carter combine. So it’s not so much our fault as all the fools that voted for Raygun! And I put solar panels on the passive solar house my wife and I had built!
I remember thinking, back in the day, that Jimmy Carter would be the best ex-President we ever had in this country.
I’m happy to say that this was one thing I was right about.
What could the current crop of ‘candidates (using the term loosely)’ learn from President Carter?
All of them could learn a great deal of humility and less bombast. Even Hillary.
