He told the truth and kept the peace. That is no small feat for the job that he had and yes, he paid for it politically. I admire President Carter for that.
I don't know a whooole lot about the American presidency in the last 50 years.....but Jimmy Carter always come across as the one president that had a heart. I get a different vibe from him. Maybe that's why at around 4:40 the journalist goes on about how the public perception of his leadership was poor. We love warmongers and "powerful" leaders. That's why we can't have a world of peaceful presidents and diplomats that serve ideals we SHOULD aspire to.

President Jimmy Carter is a underrated president. I would rate him among the top 20 presidents. His success's in foreign policy, his efforts for world peace, his attention to human rights, and the fact that he never fired a bullet of dropped a bomb during his presidency are all outstanding achievements. I also think he handled the hostage situation well. None of the hostages was killed, and no civilian Iranians lost the lives. It is a shame that the rescue operation didn`t succeed, but the marines died for their country and for a good cause. Overall i think President Carter had a good term.
He really got screwed over by the high inflation and the Ayotollah seizing power in Iran and the subsequent embassy situation. Any president to have those events in the last years of their presidency would lose any re-election attempt.
I rate Jimmy Carter as far as his intelligence as one of the smartest presidents, but it's hard to rate him in the top 20 because he didn't get that second term to prove himself, which I'm sure he would have been able too
MY HERO AND ROLE MODEL im a christian and he ntaught me how to be a gentle spoken compassionate man to ALL people that what a real man does. Jimmy is kind to alll people and doesnt judge them and wouldnt hurt a fly. He would actually catch a fly and release it rather than smash it. Todays men and christian are sarcastic and cruel to people especially if they dont agree or understand them. A GOOD MAN IS KIND TO EVERYONE!
True because he was _elected_ fairly young (he was 52 at his inauguration, quite young for a president in 1976) and also because he lost re-election. But both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were younger than Carter when they left office (despite serving two terms each) because they were only 46 and 47, respectively, when they were inaugurated.
@@justisolated5621 If the assassination in Dallas hadn't happened and Kennedy would have won the second term, he would have left office quite young - at the age of 51.
they say that Thomas Woodrow Wilson was too smart to be president, I think he Jimmy was too smart to be president, but too nice to be president as well. That is just not a good combination. Mind you, I voted for him twice
14:30 "I was castigated by the press, because I was the incumbent". Really? Oh really? So it couldn't have been because at the end of Carter's administration we were experiencing the highest unemployment, the highest inflation, and the highest prime interest rates since the Great Depression.....coupled with the disaster that was the Iranian Hostage Crisis, the invasion of Afghanistan by the Soviet Union, and Carter's assault on the American farmer with the imposition of his grain embargo against the Soviet Union. So none of that could explain why the press "castigated" Carter. It was only because he was the incumbent? It takes an astounding level of selfish self-assuredness mixed with a blatant disregard of the historical facts pertaining to his failed Presidency for this moron to make such a proclamation. Carter has spent the last four decades trying to convince the American people that his was not the worst Presidency in history. The longer he makes that argument, the more "newcomers" to the scene view it with sympathy. But for those of us who were of age and actually lived through the disaster that was the Carter Administration, we know the truth and we're not buying this bridge. Now, thankfully, we have in President Biden a compatriot of Carter's who can use his own level of stupidity to teach modern Americans what a failed Presidency looks and feels like.
Anyone who examines the accomplishments of the Carter administration and compares it to the accomplishments of Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush. Obama, Trump and Biden put together will be amazed at what a great President Jimmy Carter was!

He also balanced his budget so well to a zero deficit to shrink the national debt that he inherited.
I found this by searching "Jimmy Carter young". He was 58 here.
Well, he was young in comparison to his current age (96).

I don't think the American public loves warmongers. I do think we are a very heavily propagandized nation and thus vote against our best interest.

Jimmy Carter is an intellectual
#JimmyCarter is an underrated president because of his success's in #ForeignPolicy and trying to move America away from #ForeignOil
He’s an extraordinary person.
Wow he’s old here and still so sharp of mind
He's only 58 here. The presidency took a severe toll on him, so he looks older.
Happy 100th birthday president Carter ❤

Are you crazy? You miss double digit unemployment, inflation, high gas prices, a weak military and weak foreign policy?

Compared to most presidents, carter left office at a rather young age of 56.
True because he was _elected_ fairly young (he was 52 at his inauguration, quite young for a president in 1976) and also because he lost re-election.
But both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were younger than Carter when they left office (despite serving two terms each) because they were only 46 and 47, respectively, when they were inaugurated.
Nah Kennedy left office at the age of 46. In addition to leaving office, he left this world

I have to do some more reading about Jimmy Carter
I believe he was well meaning but unyielding in his take on a subject.
This video was filmed before his mother Lillian Gordy died in October
