He did a lot of good after he was POTUS. His politics were a disaster. He was weak willed, somewhat spineless, and many said he was a bad leader.

The country's mood was so much better when Reagan won.

Jimmy attacked traditional values. I had and have zero use for him. He wasnt mean though to my knowledge.

My uncle said that the American people didn't like him, Carter, because he told the truth about how shitty the American economy was at the time and Americans didn't want to hear it.... but it's the only thing I know and that isn't that much detail.


Seamajor is absolutely losing it over on Vancouver forum. He has TDS CHRONICALLY. He is blaming Trump for the Israel/Palestinian war.

Well, Carter WAS THE REASON the US economy was shitty. He was the reason we had a 55MPH speed limit too. That was asinine. The dude was a buffoon of a POTUS. My family were all democrats and they were relieved when he was gone.

Seamolester is a clown. Fuk that guy. He hasnt a clue either.

He had a lot of retarded ideas but he wasn't malicious. Just dopey and a bit out of his depth....a pleasant clown.

He is known now as the least bad Democrat president since the 70's though...

I thought Clinton was good at the time he was in office. But, he expanded NATO, got involved in conflicts the US should not have been involved in and worst of all, he caused the mortgage crisis which precipitated the 2008 global financial meltdown.

Men love wars. Running aroud in jeeps waving machine guns in the air, is more glamorus than ploughing fields with grain.

Henry Kissinger, who shaped world affairs under two presidents, dies at 100



Henry A. Kissinger, a scholar, statesman and celebrity diplomat who wielded unparalleled power over U.S. foreign policy throughout the administrations of Presidents Richard M. Nixon and Gerald Ford, and who for decades afterward, as a consultant and writer, proffered opinions that shaped global politics and business, died Nov. 29 at his home in Connecticut. He was 100.

His death was announced in a statement by his consulting firm, which did not give a cause.

With his German accent, incisive wit, owlish looks and zest for socializing in Hollywood and dating movie stars, he was instantly recognized all over the world, in stark contrast to most of his understated predecessors. Shamelessly courting publicity, he was as much a star of the tabloids as he was of the heavy-duty quarterlies that ruminated over his ideas about geostrategy. When he was appointed secretary of state, a Gallup poll found him to be the most admired person in the country.

But he also became the target of relentless critics who deemed him unprincipled and amoral. He refrained from traveling to Oslo to accept the Nobel award for fear of hostile demonstrations — Tho rejected the prize outright — and in later years the animosity he inspired would intensify.

What he viewed as pragmatic, many writers and analysts regarded as unprincipled maneuvering, unguided by respect for human rights or even human life. Dr. Kissinger achieved power, fame and wealth beyond the dreams of most people in public life, yet he spent his final decades defending himself and his place in history, explaining that he did what he had to do.
