    I might make an exception for Carter, though his unwillingness to be a bastard was problematic in its own way.

      I’m sorry, but Americans need to confront the reality of their presidency. And as an Australian we are still seeing the effects of Carters horrible policies play out in our region.

      Carter was responsible for funding and doubling the amount of weapons sold to Indonesia during the genocide in East Timor. And his administration enabled the ongoing human rights abuses of many SEA US funded dictatorships.
