this article is garbage. taken by itself, his presidency had problems sure. compared to actual failures - including reagan - the man was stellar.

especially where it counted, piety without dogma, patriotism without jingoism, willing to risk his own life for a lifetime of service, carter was so much better than most of the schlubs we see.

reagan won through treason, never forget he pulled the same bullshit nixon did, conservatives never care if it requires dealing with hostage takers or prolonging wars as long as they get elected. fucking scumbags
