Also, Tarheel? Why on Earth would the most liberal president we have had since FDR
LBJ
Hardly. LBJ was a communitarian style, populist Democrat who happened to like spending. Jimmy Carter was far more liberal.
How was Carter liberal?
The correct answer is that he wasn't.
Perhaps not in comparison to you, but Jimmy Carter is in fact a liberal. Few people have foreign policy as far to the left as Jimmy Carter, few people push for national health care on the level that he would have liked, few presidents ever made efforts to decriminalise marijuana like Carter did.
To say that Carter isn't a liberal is ludicrious.
