6. I hate to be a buzz kill
but Carter ruined our economy and military. Inflation was something like 12% during his presidency. Interest rates were something like 21% and he booted the pro-American Shah from Iran in favor of Khotmeni, which turned out to be a terrible choice. We were getting destroyed by the soviet union in almost everything. He had a very defeatist attitude. I know this isn't going to be a popular response, but I'm just speaking my mind.
