Little-known Jimmy Carter achieved immense power through ignorance of the Electorate—as did Barack Obama. The difference is that it's "our side" that may need the same strategy to prevail in 2012.

Carter ran after the vice president resigned, the President resigned, the Church commission had wiped out the CIA, the Vietnam war, the draft, the Ford appointment.

Carter was seen as a devout Christian and a military man.

He was running as a social conservative against a man that wasn’t, in fact a North Eastern moderate, pro abortion, Republican like Scott Brown.

I don’t see how all this fits into your strategy for you Gerald Ford candidate from the Massachusetts Senate, that isn’t even a sitting President and is barely even a Senator.

Wouldn’t a more realistic, conservative, Republican that can carry the South, do better?

We committed suicide last time we had the electorate on our side, lets not do it again.
