I think Honesty is a wonderful quality & I require it of my friends. I wish it was a requirement for our presidents, too!

Player Cosmo Chic, he did. And, in his 90s, he still builds houses for Habitat for Humanity.

The word Malaise was used in the speech. Carter asks us to be better people as a nation. I voted for him twice
Kid heket
Doesn’t sound like the President Carter I remember.Run away inflation, Gas crisis,skyrocketing mortgage rates and Iran hostage crisis

President Carter was a great human being. He was a lousy president. I could not wait to go vote for Ronald Reagan.

Jimmy Carter what a person

He was certainly one of our brightest Presidents. The U.S. hostages in Iran disabled a second term, however. Too, bad. I admired him then and still do.

PanhandleGuy, hate to say it but when Clinton left office we had a national surplus NOT debt!

I had the pleasure of meeting him and he was truly a gracious gentleman

American people need that speech today more than any possible time
Finity
quite a bit of revisionist history in that explanation, Americans never saw Jimmy Carter as a strong or decisive president. if anything that speech made him less popular and he wasn't that popular at the time
Chuck
"Strong and significant president"... Now that's hilarious. What I remember of the Carter administration is weakness in leadership, weakness in foreign policy, high inflation, high unemployment, high gas prices and oh yeah, the American embassy in Iran taken over and the people inside taken hostage.

nice person, lousy president.

Player #24565386, strike that reverse it. Iran would not release the hostages until Carter was out. They needed wanted to deny Carter the victory of negotiating their release, so they released them as soon as he was gone. Carter negotiated for their release, and secured it, but was denied the political victory of it happening during his term in office.

Why is "Crisis" spelled with an "e" instead of an "i" in the last paragraph ?

pI358. The former President Jimmy Carter aka peanut farmer was a poor President
He gave away the Panama Canal that Americans died building and he refused to support the Shieh of Iran.
