444 days of utter humiliation before the entire world.
Shit on the Shah and elevated a terrorist into power in Iran.
Home buyers Pay 10 points to reduce a mortgage to 14%.
Lines to buy gas and locking gas caps.

Carter also: 1) claimed to be so in for civil rights yet fought against school integration in Plains; 2) made a big deal of carrying his own bag as President which the “press” ate up like lapdogs and then shoved it on to the SS when out of camera range; 3) stopped serving alcohol at WH parties then would imbibe in the Oval Office (both 2 and 3 are according to his SS guard who wrote a book about how phony he was).

Carter’s ‘Singular Achievements.’ Like What?Unlike Johnny Depp, he appears to still have most of his original, shovel-shaped teeth... He must be mostly English:

He got Ronald Reagan elected. Without his catastrophic four years in office that may have never happened.
And that's the only thing which could be called an "accomplishment".

Sorry, what? “Smartest”? Granted we’ve had (have now) some genuine morons. But top of a list that includes Jefferson, Lincoln, and T. Roosevelt?

Carter brought in Dr. Harold Browne from Cal Tech to run the Defense Department. Browne had this idea, which he called “smart weaponry,” that he thought would change the face of warfare. He got us in on the ground floor decades ahead of Russia and China.

His biggest achievement was delivering Iran to rabid islamists. Well done Jimmy. You will not be missed.

Carter liked to call himself a nuclear physicist which was an exaggeration but i think it’s fair to call him a nuclear engineer. He was certainly very smart as was nixon. I agree jeffy was smart too. Lincoln and TR not so much.

The best thing to come from the Carter years was Billy Beer, and it was swill.

Grant. You read "The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant", all 31 book and it becomes apparent that the man was very smart.
Nixon was super smart as well.

As I recall he shut down Verona. Because we just could not expose our good friends the commies in government.
Also crippled our intelligence gathering in other ways by insisting that we could only use A1 informants because the rest were just too unclean for the Grinning Monster.
And of course gave us the most devastating thing the Department of Communist Education which is responsible for a good 50% of the problems we have currently.

I would encourage you to read any biography of Theodore Roosevelt. Photographic memory, at age 24 the author of a landmark work of History (The Naval War of 1812), a political career in New York fighting Tammany Hall, and an immensely successful presidency. Creating the first national park, conceiving and beginning construction of the Panama Canal, and organizing and leading a volunteer cavalry in Cuba during the Spanish American War were all sidelights. Utterly brilliant man.

There’s still eight chances for him to not make it to 100.
I wonder if their are any Betting pools on whether him or Biden will go first ?

He lived long enough to no longer be the worst President in American history. That is saying something! I, for one, never thought that record could be broken.
