Jimmy Carter although not by any stretch our best Chief Executive is far and above Clinton in terms of intelligence, morals and vision. Hes actually an extremely principaled man with passion and deep convictions. Bill Clinton isnt even close.

Although I disagree with a lot of Jimmy Carter's political views, I agree that he appears to be a man of honor, honesty, and integrity -- none of which applies to Bill Clinton.
I can go to the seedy side of any big city and meet people like Clinton all day long. The only difference is he got elected president because Ross Perot split the votes of the Republicans.

i might to, as Clinton went against God's regulation, and had an affair. additionally, Jimmy Carter under no circumstances certainly ran for president. Jimmy Carter does a number of missionary artwork, and basically appears like somebody i might desire to work out interior a church. No offense to bill, yet I believe Jimmy over him.

I am a Republican but I would still meet with Bill Clinton over Jimmy Carter. I did not agree with his policies but he was not a dangerous failure and a fraud like Carter.
The current terrorist problem can be attributed to Carters failure in Iran. The economy was in shambles, stagflation ruled the day. But you have to hand it to Jimmy he did not stop trying to ruin the USA just because he lost to Reagan in a landslide. He collected a Nobel prize for bashing the US then headed to Venezuela to certify an obviously crooked election. Jimmy Carter is a dangerous buffoon.

Me, too. I, though a Republican, voted for Jimmy Carter because I felt he was an honest man, and assumed an honest man would make a good president. Well, I was wrong, and he was a lousy president.
However, as a person I do think he is a good person, and one of the few public figures you would want your own son to emulate.

Of the two, Jimmy Carter. I don't think he was a GOOD president - he sold us down the river, so to speak, with the Panama Canal; but I believe he was the most HONEST president we've ever had in Office.
Bill Clinton?....I wouldn't walk to the sidewalk in front of my house to meet him.

His passion for helping people now is the result of being the worst president ever followed by Clinton. They were soft on terrorism and North Korea and here we are. A great president is known for what he does while in office when he has official powers.

Jimmy made a good carpenter. He was awful as a president. I guess the only good thing you can say about clinton was he did nothing, so he didn't fail. I'll live a very happy life never having to meet either one.
