Literally the only things I give him credit for was the Camp David Accords w/ Begin and Sadat and for pardoning draft dodgers, otherwise, his Presidency was a failure , economically, and foreign policy wise.

While I like to blame Eisenhower and his ilk for the long-term damage done to Iran and the Middle East, Carter's inability/refusal to support the Shah was not helpful at all and led to the current disgusting regime's reign of terror. Oh, and of course, his proven inability to lead during the Iran Hostage Crisis.

I would not have been a fan of giving away the Panama Canal, but this is hardly an issue I'd prioritize when bashing Carter.

Carter was also extremely naive in relation to the culture of Washington Politics, which I think was partly responsible for his failures domestically.

However, all of that is not even my least favorite thing about him. I think he was a 1 star President, and a 0 star human being.

His support for Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist groups under the ridiculous moniker of human rights truly proves how pathetic and naive this man is. And I am sure it is of no surprise to many people on here, but his dislike for Israel is yet another reason I despise Jimmy Carter.
