Jimmy Carter has been very active in the decades since his presidency, and his successors have occasionally called for his advice. Except, it turns out, the current occupant of the office. A clip from Carter’s upcoming Meet the Press interview reveals that President Obama is the first president since Carter left office not to solicit the Southern Democrat’s advice.
Carter explained, “President Clinton did and President George W. Bush and H.W. Bush and even Ronald Reagan used to call on us to go into sensitive areas.” They all asked Carter to deal with “unsavory characters,” but Obama hasn’t reached out to Carter for similar consulting.

Considering that he is your clone, why would he have to?

My opinion of Obama just went up one small notch.

1. Maybe we are underestimating Uhbama.
2. Uhbama is afraid of the comparisons so doesn’t want to feed them by invoking the worst pres ever.
3. Uhbama is really just like Carter, so already thinks just like him and advice would be redundant.

Obama can screw everything up all by himself, thank-you.

When you are the master of stupid, you don’t need advice.

When Jimmy Carter is trying to disassociate from you, you might be a failure.

OMG! Perish the thought!! Asking Carter for advice would be just about the only thing that could possibly make this administration worse Pray for America!
To: gooblah
Most likely those who asked for Carter’s opinion also asked their crazy uncle for his opinion? Obama soliciting Carter’s opinion would truly be ‘blind leading idiot’.......

If this is true, I have less respect for Clinton, and Bush I and II.
To: gooblah
“advice” is Jimmah’s self-serving description, when the calls might have been simply courtesy calls, that the self-absorbed Kenyan Emperor is incapable of making.
