>And at least Carter didn't take a $10 million dollar book contract. Even Nixon didn't try to extract millions for himself personally. The Presidents back then weren't so unethical that they used their position to gain money. Carter has recently criticized this when Clinton inappropriately did this.

I wouldn't go as far as to say that book deals are corrupt; I mean, heck, if you've lived a remarkable enough life that people would pay to read about it, why shouldn't you make money off of it?
