LOL, as an Indie (neither R or D) I freely speak my mind without worrying about trying to maintain some crazy political allegiance. And yes I lived through the Carter days and economically, it sucked.

I think we can agree, every leader "does what he could to protect"... (their constituents)..."from outside influences he could not control", it's part of the job of being a leader.

IMO, if any leader (prez, gov, mayor) chooses to bask in the sunlight of good news during their watch, then they should also embrace the cloudy days of bad news. Agree?

I will never claim Carter was a good president, but I will say he was one of the best men to be president.
I can't see how anybody could say the president caused the oil embargo. And like most I did not always look kindly on the changes made under his administration. (Running meat, the double nickel hurt) but looking back if the population had at least tried maybe the oil companies would of lost grip on the sack years ago.
