Thank God he didn’t win re-election 🤦‍♂️
Carter went Third Way instead of FDR one of the reasons he was one term.
Nonsense. Inflation was thru the roof under Carter. Reagan almost won every State. 44/50 with well over 450 electoral votes. Carter was a weak and incompetent President and almost all of America realized it.
Even as a very young, totally ignorant youngster, I knew something about the timing was fishy.

This was know right after the election. It was talked about regularly. Nothing new to people who read history.
With Carter in 80, we would be an FDR country not a Nixon crime factory

And Nixon made sure the Vietnam war lasted long enough for him to get elected. Disgraceful!
