Default Carter had that and...

Having the coveted seat next to propagandist-extrordianire Michael Moore and being buddies with the Reverend Al Sharpton ( nice big anti-semite that he is). Belive me, Carter has only one thing he drools over, the prospect of a Nobel Peace Prize. Yet, I digress.

Cool Carter

He has never succeeded in building a legacy so he has to be content in building houses. He never met a dictator he didn't like, Chavez being the latest. His presidency was glorified by high unemployment and interest rates plus when the chips were down he hung the Shan of Iran out to dry blowing oil prices sky high. Oh did I forget to mention the hostages in Tehran?
Funny they were released when Pres. Reagan was taking office, they didn't want to deal with a Republican president.
Bless you all....

Cool What's his name?

I'm always amazed that Canadians are more astute and all knowing about American politics than U.S. citizens. By the way, what was the name of that guy all the Canadians voted for in 2000, Al somebody.

How did you manage to get President Carter, Rev. Al Sharpton, and anti-semitism related in your post?

You are implying that President Carter is anti-semitic because he belongs to the same political party as Rev. Al Sharpton, who you alleged is anit-semitic.

What utter nonsense, all bull crap, Senor Loco Falcon!!!

Late President Regan was a Republican and President Carter is a Democrat. Just a little Civics lesson, Mr. Intelligent Jerry K.

Everyone who remembers Carter remembers Pierre Trudeau (roughly the same time period) and his wife Margaret and her tryst with the Rolling Stones.

If you are an american my friend, I stand corrected. Let me re-phrase my question. "I bet that most US citizens, who are not heavily involved or informed in the political workings of our great society, would most likely not be able to name more than one prior Canadian Prime Minister"

p.s. My quote was said in jest, not to open up a new debate, please don't ruin my poke at fun.

Thank you and once again, Regards.

Ricardo, no debate intended (this is not a debate forum), my post was also said in fun. That's why I made the reference to Margaret Trudeau, whom at the time, was more well known in the US than her Prime Minister husband, Pierre.

My bad for not adding smiley faces to the end of my previous post.
