Basically, Carter's liberalism was a hybrid of William Jennings Bryan and George McGovern, while Obama's is a hybrid of Clintonism and McGovernism. Which of those you consider "more" liberal is up to you.

Who tried (and achieved) healthcare reform? Obama

Who started deregulation? Carter

Actually, Nixon started deregulation. And Carter's health care policy was overall on the left of Obama.
