    No president is perfect. Some are much worse or much better than others. The US would greatly benefit from having more Jimmy Carters as president.

      His failure was not including Washington insiders into his cabinet. It’s the lesson that people often forget. The president can’t be a total outsider and expect to be successful.

        I could see that being an issue for sure. But I will still say that falls well short of the things some other president’s have done.
