Carter Last Night

Posted by Anthony Gregory at July 27, 2004 12:32 PM

I saw Carter speaking on PBS last night. I certainly didn't agree with all that he said (such as the necessity of invading Afghanistan) but he does seem a much less reprehensible and dishonest a man than most presidents I remember.

Why do so many neolibertarians have this visceral contempt for Carter? I doubt it has to do with policy. Or character. Is it because he believes, at least in some sense, in peace? Why do they bash him so?

Whatever it is, I think he should be the Democratic nominee. If he represented the Dems, at least there would be some choice on some issues.
