How can we possibly have a discussion on the worst president ever and not mention James Earl Carter.    During his administration inflation rates were in double digits, the interest rate was 17% when I bought my first home, (slightly higher than the current interest rates around 5%) their were gas lines, hostages in Iran, a failed rescue mission where dead american soldiers were dragged through the streets, and the USA was the joke of the world.

The Soviet Union invaded Afganistan and Carter retaliated by pulling out of the Olympics.   Boy- I bet that thought the Soviet Union a lesson.   I remember him sitting in sweaters telling us how we all have to turn our thermostats down because we don't have enough energy. (I teach energy efficiency for a living and support an energy policy- but all he showed was weakness)

I get sick every time I hear him criticize the current president. He was the very first person I ever voted for, and the last time I ever voted for a Democratic president.
