What's the /pol/ take on him and his Presidency? Who would you have voted for in 1980?
>>542370163I would not have voted because I'm not a faggot like you OP
>>542370163>blundered vietnam>blundered iran>gave away the panama canal for $1worst president in history after trump
>>542370163That's the guy that invented DEI.
Better than trump
Deep state screwed him. Who was the head of the CIA when Carter was sworn in?
>>542370163Decent man in general, though not an ideal President. At least he wasn't braindead like Biden.
>>542370248>blundered vietnamVietnam was already over, CIA left the 'embassy employees' there to be taken hostage. Delta did not need to practice hostage rescue because practicing is for pussies.He was the person needed as President during Three Mile Island. Could you imaging Reagan going to Three Mile Island during the meltdown for photo ops and what retarded comments he would make?
>>542370163He had good taste in music
>>542370163Rickover approved of him and therefor so do i
>>542370436Saigon fell in 1975 on Ford's watch. This was all ancient history by the time Carter took office in 1977.Three Mile Island was a minor incident, Carter because of his background knew it was a minor incident, but refused to say so publicly because he didn't want to antagonize the anti-nuke activists in his own party.The neutron bomb was the same. He knew it was less destructive than conventional nukes, but bowed to pressure from the activists (probably funded by Moscow) to ban it.
>>542370315>Deep state screwed himOh fuck yes.Not only did the DS+Israel sabotage Carter's rescue mission to free the Americans held hostage in the US embassy in Tehran, *it was the CIA+Mossad who had arranged to have the embassy attacked and the Americans taken hostage in Iran in the first place*.CIA was pissed Carter had defeated the kikes' JFK *and* Nixon fixer Gerald Ford in 1976. They weren't going to let Carter keep the CIA's next appointee for President George HW Bush out of the WH in 1980. (Though Bush himself fucked up that one by choosing the incompetent Hinckley to assassinate Reagan - so Poppy had to wait untill '88.)
>>542370816>Three Mile Island was a minor incidentYou consider the core melting down minor?It was funny because about one week prior the nuclear emergency the movie China Syndrome came out conveniently prepping everyone about a looming nuclear disaster.
>>542370163He's a top three president over the past 50 years. Unlike Trump, he was a true outsider and refused to allow his party's establishment to engineer (no pun intended) his presidency, but still ended up signing lots of positive legislation into law, such as the Airline Deregulation Act, Motor Carrier Act, Mental Health Systems Act, Civil Service Reform Act, ANILCA, etc. Unfortunately, like Ford, the oil shock and inflation from it caused by Nixon permeated throughout his presidency, and was exacerbated by Iran, who the Reagan administration traitorously collaborated with to prevent his reelection, but his appointment of Volcker is what ultimately led to stagflation's defeat and things like the Natural Gas Policy Act did mitigate the worst of the oil shock. And despite the perception that the economy was completely awful under him, he did have the highest per capita job growth of every post-WW2 president other than LBJ. Furthermore, had he been reelected, it's very likely we would have normalized with Cuba, had a Palestinian state and had a robust green energy national program. 1. Bush Sr.2. Obama3. Carter4. Biden5.

>>542370950I always suspected former CIA Director Richard Helms as the one who arranged for the Iranians to attack the US embassy and take the Americans there hostage.As former DCIA he'd also have enough connections to be able to tell the Israelis exactly how to stop Carter's "Operation Eagle Claw" rescue mission.
>>542370163>nuclear scientist or some shit>does Z E R O to advance nuclear energyabject failure for that reason alone, spineless fuck
>>542370163I visited his hometown in Georgia over the summer. It's so small you could blink and miss it. Definitely not a pretentious elite that you'd expect of a politician but everyone knows he was not presidential material.
>>542370163The Israelis were going to stop Carter just as surely as they stopped Kennedy.
>>542370163Weak pussy ass Democrat... Ruined America
>>542370163Boomers hate him because he wasn't a buckbroken kikeslave like Reagan
It's completely unexpected that there would be so many 1pbtid attacks on Carter.
>>542372393I’ll throw a 1pbtid in support of the peanut farmer turned prez if it makes you feel better. He seemed like a decent sort.
>>542370163A good man, a terrible president. See also Ulysses S. Grant
>>542372531>He seemed like a decent sort.He was. That's why the jews eliminated him.
>>542371832>but everyone knows he was not presidential material.>>542372696>a terrible presidentThis is just boomerslop. He's at worst an average president overall and above average in modern history.
>>542372927>boomers said it so it's wrongBy all accounts his administration was not a success, which he himself admitted. Stagflation, soviet invasion of afghanistan, energy shortage crisis, and iran hostage crisis were all under his watch
>>542373439The Soviet, energy, and Iran challenges were quite possibly fomented by the Israelis.The CIA+DS was as enraged about Carter defeating Kennedy-killer Ford in 1976 as the Hillary jews faction was about losing to the Trump jew faction in 2016.
>>542373439>By all accounts his administration was not a successCertainly not by "all accounts." His presidency wasn't immediately looked upon fondly, because the American public is fickle and prefers charismatic leaders who cause long term problems than capable ones who fix them, even if it takes time. >which he himself admittedHe was very defensive of his record from everything I've seen. Did you go to his library?>StagflationWhich he and Volcker fixed.>soviet invasion of afghanistanHad nothing to do with him.>energy shortage crisisHe also fixed this and it wasn't caused by him.>and iran hostage crisisHe also fixed this and surprise, surprise, but it wasn't caused by him. The only reason the hostages were held past the elections were because of Reagan's handlers' treachery.
>>542370163Only now are you starting to see the lives and treasure lost due to his peanut farming presidencyThe Persian people were forever destroyed by this fucking retard
>>542370163Every president this country has had since maybe Jackson, has been a sellout and a crook and has done nothing but tow the line. Fuck all of them
>>542370163>>542371255>>542373838>>542371985Carter was the last U.S. president to not be pozzed by Israel1. https;//archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/4202244422. https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/492858381Picrel is the actual president of United States 1981—1992(not even 2 months after the 1981 inauguration was the assassination attempt by a gunman that had dinner with a Bush family member a few nights prior)
>>542375425
>>542373838Very random thing but I was bored to death and dug through the C-SPAN archive, and Jimmy Carter gave a typical interview, it was the late 90s, and he said that he was basically at war with his own speech writers. >https://www.c-span.org/program/interview/president-carter-interview/130708About 19 minutes in he talks about it. My history is not so good so correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Ford played a big part in the JFK assasination investigation, the Warren commissions or something? So you have three Presidents, one remembered as a crook, one remembered as a buffoon, and the other remembered as the worst President ever. And none of those interpretations are correct!
>>542370163Underrated
>>542374525Shut up, you dumb fucking boomer. The "Persian people" would have literally flayed Pahlavi publicly if Carter didn't save him.
>>542370163Did you know the nuke test monitoring satellites detected an unsanctioned test of a nuclear weapon during the Carter administration?Did you know Carter ordered an intense investigation?Did you know Carter ordered the investigation halted, sealed away and covered up once it was found to have been a collaboration between South Africa and Israel?
>>542376130>My history is not so good so correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Ford played a big part in the JFK assasination investigation, the Warren commissions or something?Yeah, it's true. And Ford did defend the commissions findings, but it was obviously being tailored by Warren and the "deep state" for lack of a better word. From my personal research, I don't think he was a bad guy, and he did sign into law the Church Committee, which publicly criticized the Warren Commission's findings and exposed much of the other illegal activities of the intelligence agencies.
bumping this as it's piqued my autistic interests
