How old were you when Jimmy Carter was Prez?...and the gasoline prices skyrocketed, and the going % rate was 19%....

Carter has done well with Habitat For Humanity, but he was a poor leader.

FDR led this country through the depression, he gave the people hope, and, the ability to face tommorrow.

FDR and Churchill paved the way to victory in WW2.

And, maybe you critize Truman for Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as well.

Jimmy Carter was an AWFUL president and about as bad as LBJ, and only slightly better than Klinton. Truman wasn't bad, and he did the right thing with Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

FDR tried to pack the Supreme Court. That is unforgivable. He recognized the Soviet Union. He signed the first nationwide gun law. He called Stalin his friend. He pushed for BROAD EXECUTIVE POWERS. He made it illegal to own gold. He wanted to be a dictator. He was the most power hungry president in history.

The only good thing he did was let prohibition die out.
