Ted, I am sure that Carter would have given a lot of clout and legitimacy to the Soviet powers and philosophies that formed the foundation of the USSR. That would have kept the regime alive even as everything else started collapsing around them.

Besides, take a look at two of Carter's diplomatic "accomplishments" in his post-presidency, North Korea and Haiti. You know the deal with North Korea. Haiti was a mess even before the earthquake, and its human rights record today continues to be abysmal.

Is that a man that you think could have caused the Soviet Union to collapse in the same way and time frame that Ronald Reagan did? Not a chance.
