Bull and S h i t. Carter did not have the expertise nor the military strategy or intelligence to bury the Kremlin. Carter was a master of the Energy, Agriculture and Environment sector. His expertise was in those sectors. Hell, Carter created the Dept of Energy.
But as far as War and military tactics? Not his butter to slice. He failed with the Iran Hostage, and american felt unsafe.
Ronald Regan comes in with his Vice, George Bush, who was the former director of the CIA - forget about it! And they affiliated with Marget Thatcher to form a Three-headed gullitone to bury the Kremlin. Regan didn't care about anything else. He was focused on burying mother russia, and so to the point, that he became a gun seller and drug dealer. He turned america into a crack hole, where even his own kind couldn't totally escape the crack epidemic. That is how tenacious he was. Carter didn't have that kind of tenacity or viciousness. Carter is a man of goodwill, not a man of war.
I'm a huge Carter supporter, but he was a softee in regards to homeland security, and the american public knew it. Regan was willing to sacrifice the american people to take down the Ruskies.
The movie Clear and Present Danger reflected Regan and his administration and how they got down......Cold war needs Cold, cruel actions.
Either Reagan fooled your daddy and he told you what to say or Reagan and his phoney silver screen tough guy image fooled you.
Wow! Carter attempted the most bold, most dangerous to U.S. military personnel special forces mission ever. Due to severe sand storm, the mission was a failure.
You must be a child typing what your daddy told you to type. You made no mention that 241 U.S. Marines and one USN Sailor died because of Reagan's foolish plan in Lebanon. Their deaths achieved nothing and the mission was 100% Reagan's fault. A weak later, Invasion of Grenada. Phoney.
You are a child if you are referring to a Hollywood film as evidencee Reagan was a good leader.
I'm a huge Carter guy. But Carter's weaknesses did him in.
He had a democratic congress on his watch, but still couldn't build up any type of relationship with congress to get support. And since he started to look weak to the democratic party, Ted Kennedy came on strong, making the primary a tough one for him, where the democratic party was split. He went in against regan without a chance in hell. He supporters had already deserted him, and even some democrats voted for Regan.
Him giving away the Panama Canal was proof that his Foreign Policies were shite, bro.
Carter was a great president in his own right, but as far as FP, War, etc. He was weak in that area,
