I think Carter is the worst president in American history.

He withdrew support for the Shah of Iran, which led to the religious loonies taking over that country.

At the same time, he supported religious loonies in Afghanistan attacking the Russians.

Pitting fundamentalist Islamists against Communists. Giving them money, training, and lots of weapons. Brilliant.

Yet, he supported the Sandinista Communists in Nicaragua, and he looked the other way when Cuban Communists took over Grenada.

Human rights - he agreed with Baby Doc Duvalier not to accept Haitian refugees. He gave military aid to Indonesia while they slaughtered the East Timorese. He helped the Khmer Rouge keep their seat in the UN.

I could go on. His domestic policy sucked too. Remember the sweaters? And his attempt to get national health care?
