President Barack Obama displayed "political courage" when he changed over 50 years of U.S. policy by announcing a renewal of diplomatic relations with Cuba, former President Jimmy Carter told MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
Critics of Obama's announcement have said the move only served the Cuban government, but Carter said there was "no doubt" that the "beneficiaries of this primarily will be the Cuban people."

No consultation with Congress, no Senate consent, wait until Congress is on vacation then issue a decree in the dead of night.
Sneakiness is not courage.
Carter is an idiot who spouts stupidity every time he opens his mouth.
