Hey, Carter at least (insofar as I can tell) had the best interests of America at heart when he made policy. He was simply wrong almost all of the time; however, that wasn't for a lack of trying. Clinton basically ignored threats to our national security and even sold nuclear secrets to China for campaign cash. But Cronkite--didn't he commit serial sedition that en-heartened the Viet Cong before John Kerry took the job of senior enemy propagandist?

Yeah, but Carter's idea of the best interests of America was to explain to us that we were no longer the major world power, and the sooner we grew up and dealt with it, the better off we'd all be. Cold? Wear a sweater.

The man was poison in the marrow of our collective bones...
