The only president in history worse than Carter is Obama.
My thoughts exactly.
Carter used to be the worst President ever and is still No. 2 in my book, now that we are saddled with this Narcissistic, Fascist, Neo-Commie
Of course we can not overlook LBJ, who with moonbat, moron, and so called "wiz kid" McNamara micro-managed the Nam War from the oval office and instituted Rules of Engagement which resulted in many un-needed casualties.
Likewise the wholly corrupt and cowardly LBJ could have ended that little military engagement in 6 months or so, had he not been so afraid of the Rooskies and Chinks who were supporting No. Vietnam and without their aid, could not have lasted very long.
While true that JFK got us involved (sending Special Forces "advisers") it was LBJ who really screwed the pooch and was responsible for tens of thousands of my brothers not coming home, not to mention hundreds of thousands of wounded.
You are confusing Eisenhower and JFK, Eisenhower kept a few hundred advisers there, but Kennedy started sending in the troops and had 16,000 there when he was killed.
