Jimmy Carter: I Wouldn't Change a Thing About My Presidency
DC Examiner ^ | 10/11/07

Posted on 10/11/2007 5:58:21 AM PDT by YourAdHere

Jimmy Carter says in an interview that he wouldn't have changed a thing about his presidency. He claims that if he had only had "one more helicopter," he could have freed those hostages and thus won re-election. But he adds, if he had won a second term, he probably would not have the Carter Center today. So he says, it's a good thing.

I'd love for him to explain this logic to the people he ignored for 444 days.

My favorite part of the Carter Presidency was his second term. ;-)

Funny...I’d change EVERYTHING about his presidency. I really cannot understand why politics seems to be very largely inhabited by folks who find the operation of a light bulb to be beyond their comprehension. This guy is the king of the maroons.

I'm sure HE wouldn't. Which is what makes him ever the imbecile.

. . . wouldn't have changed a thing about his presidency.

Which includes being booted out of office for gross incompetence.

the man is the democrat attack dog for the election.

Carter fought against Reagan by going to the USSR, Carter is fighting against the republicans.

We need to PUBLICLY spank this fraud.

He is the biggest failure as post president and president.

The only good thing that happened during Carters term was when Reagan was sworn in.

Jimmy Carter was the Bill Clinton prototype.

A southern fried liberal hiding in a moderate cover.

Jimmy “lusted in his heart” after women.

Billy Boy took action on that issue.

Jimmy Carter says in an interview that he wouldn't have changed a thing about his presidency.

Since Jimmy's utter failure as president led to a monumental landslide victory for Reagan and gave Ronnie the political capital to initiate the Reagan tax cuts and the ensuing economic growth, I agree that Carter shouldn't have changed a thing about his presidency.
