Jimmy Carter: Successes and Failures Abroad (1977 - 1981)

[@San_Vito]

The Carter Administration was really influential over here, Argentina, during our last (and by far the most brutal and violent) militar dictatorship, mainly by the efforts of Patricia Derian denouncing human rights violations. It represented a shift in US policy, which used to view South American dictatorships as allies against communism during the Cold War.

@Dow John I agree with you I don’t know how anyone could say he handled the hostage situation well. I’m 35 so Carter was before my time but I’m a history buff and I’ve read and watched everything I could on the Iran hostages of the US EMBASSY & he did a very poor job. It’s amazing that he was The President when that went down and was campaigning to get re-elected while Americans were held hostage. I don’t see how he could have focused on anything besides bringing those Americans home. There was a reason he only served one term and a big reason for the Reagan Revolution was people got to see how bad a left leaning President policy’s effect the entire nation. Carter comes off as a nice guy with a big heart with compassionate ideas but that doesn’t equal a great leader and it definitely didn’t translate well in real life with his policies. After just 4 years of Carter & his bleeding heart America had a Republican in the White House for 12 years (3 terms Reagan & Bush)until they were ready to give a Democrat another shot at leading. Carter’s bad policies effect America to this day.

[@arthas640]

I cant think of a single person who was such a great person, so loveable, yet such a mediocre leader. If he had more of a backbone and been a bit more patient by staggering his reforms out across 2 administrations he could have been one of the best presidents of the last 100 years, but he was a bit too gullible, indecisive, and self righteous. He was a great person but politically he was like an American Chamberlain, a classic appeaser. Doing things like supporting the Shah publically yet doing next to nothing to actually support him was enough to weaken the Shah and sour his opponents (like the ayatollah) against the US without actually doing anything to help the Shah. It was a classic example of why it's best not to do half measures. If Carter and Reagan had teamed up with Carter as the VP I honestly believe it would have been the best presidency since FDR. He was a great diplomat and ambassador, and had an excellent moral compass and endless compassion. Coupled with Reagans decisiveness, pragmatism, and political power it would have been a match made in heaven. Reagan could reign in Carters pie in the sky optimism while Carter could counter balance Reagan's more morally bankrupt acts like the Iran Contra affair

Jimmy Carter was a theological liberal who ultimately rejected biblical positions on polarizing issues like abortion and human sexuality. After the conservative resurgence brought a commitment to scriptural inerrancy back to the Southern Baptist Convention, Carter and his church instead embraced liberalism and left the SBC. Like many Southern Baptists before 1980, Carter was an advocate of reducing but not outlawing abortions. The Carter Center condemned the recent Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade. In 2018, Jimmy Carter blasphemed God by claiming Jesus would approve of gay marriage. Carter shook his fist at Almighty God and made up his own rules.

[@gagejernigan5277]

As a Georgian and typically conservative 20 year old who voted for Donald Trump this year, Jimmy is my favorite president. I couldn’t agree more with pardoning the Vietnam draft dodgers. I also like his consolidation of the executive branch, cutting down the size of government and making it more efficient. Creating the department of energy and department of education were very shrewd moves, even if the department of education hasn’t been implemented well since his administration. He was saddled with a democratic congress that didn’t like him because he didn’t play DC political games and this caused quite a few of Carter’s policies which may have shone his presidency in a more positive light to not be approved. His rhetoric like the Malaise speech wasnt always the best(similar to Trump but in different ways)but his policy and refusal to abuse the office of president to force through partisan democratic bills makes a good president in my eyes and his personality makes him my favorite.

@@TheAzmountaineer I suggest you actually read some of the book’s which are available on Jimmy Carter …. I have 4 which I’ve read and you’re welcome to borrow …. The incident with the rabbit type creature is documented and caught on camera ….. people who are willing to give it out should be willing to take it back …….

​@@martinoconnor923 At first I thought you meant they wrote 4 books about the killer rabbit, which was hilarious until I reread you comment. Thanks for the offer, but I'm good, I lived through his presidency. I remember the pictures of the rabbit in the water while he fights it off with a paddle or oar. It's funny, regardless. And can you imagine what the press and talking heads would make of it if that happened to Biden or Trump?

He caused a five year recession,hostages held in Iran for a year and a half, people in line for hours to get gas

[@Youttubi]

He also pardoned a child molester.

The Administration of Nelson Rockefeller, as the defacto VP in charge of Foreign Affairs, with his trusty sidekick Hank seemed to operate all foreign affairs real well in the Carter Administration, as id did for Ford's...... Nelson made sure The Shah was well treated at the Mayo Clinic..... Texaco liked to exploit Colonies like the one the Brits gave us after WW2...... Seems like US Foreign Policy has been engineered to serve Standard Oil profits since 1910.....

Bless Jimmie's heart. The way I see it he chose to find good in too many evil Cats. Moreover, FBI Christopher Wary must be overwhelmed today. I'm not so one-sided I cannot see those complex facts. My only prayer is the DOJ will clean the house. MichaelPatrick1972

Great guy but choked during the Iran crisis

[@thomasneal9291]

actually, he didn't. you should read the full history on that, and not believe the republican spin on it.

[@MihadAlzayat]

@@thomasneal9291 if I believed the Republican spin I wouldn’t say he’s a good guy. Secondly, if holding our hostages for 444 days isn’t choking I don’t know what is. If I was president I would have demolished Iran to get our hostages back. Appeasement doesn’t work with radical regimes. They slap you, you have to slap back 10 times harder for them to stop.

Thankfully, Carter's presidency is being more positively re-assessed, but the enemy of your enemy is not always your friend.

Um, yeah. I read my scripts off a teleprompter like a professional. Would you prefer that I just improvise a monologue about him?

Biden is definitely Jimmy Carter 2.0 Jimmy Carter was a bad president but I admire the man for hanging on so long he’s definitely a fighter no denying that
