Carter is interested in the publicity it is generating for himself. Part of the rebuilding of his legacy. Very little can be said of his term as President except the bumbling manner in which he governed and double digit inflation.

He did leave office with the impression he was an honest man, but too naive and gullible to bargain effectively with foreign leaders. Nothing he is doing in Cuba changes that perspective, except the honesty factor is being challenged by some of his statements.

"This has offended us because the first thing you need to produce biological weapons is the intention to do so," said Ricardo Bringas, director of bioinformatics at the Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology on the outskirts of Havana. "We do not have that intention. It does not exist here."

Yep, good enough for the little peanut farmer...is anyone surprised that Carter would believe a Castro lackey?

Carter's legacy included the impression that he was an honorable man, but now he has erased that attribute.
