#1 Carter has a chance to do one and only good deed in his entire life--assume a room temperature.

#2 Isn't it a little late to warn Obama about what not to do during his first term?

#3 Carter's big problem with alienating voters wasn't Panama or China, it was the weak handling of the Iranian crisis combined with inept handling of the economy. He was an embarrassment and if he had any dignity he'd disappear from public view like most Presidents.

#4 Carter began his presidency with high approval ratings. IMO, his approvals went down not only because of policies but mainly because of his smugness, ego centric view of the country and because the left abandoned him by 79 or so.

Obama has essentially the same problems but the left hasn't abandoned him (except for a few) and the black voters, in the main, don't seem to be able to understand that they are victims of Obama's policies.

#5 For some reason this made me think that Obama is trying to implant alien spores into voters or something.

#7 Carter does know a thing or two about alienating voters. However, too late for that advice.

#8 That advice would have been useful to Obama... back in '09.
