He and his brother Billy reminded me of comic book characters...

Carter was a nice, well meaning guy.
I always liked him.
But too soft for the US society.
He could have been successful in Sweden.

Or even more so in Finland, had he only been fluent in Russian.


Didn't he go to Poland once and say (due to poor translation) that he had an "erotic feeling" for the Polish people?

He wasn't "too soft". In fact, he was extremely strong because he remained firm to his strong convictions inspite of the pro-war US society.

It's much easier to go to war, than to find better alternative solutions. A weak person would have rushed into war to appease the public.

Only a "strong" person has the ability to go against the grain of society. Carter is a very, very strong person.
