Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Among other things, Carter and his defense secretary Harold Brown were responsible for approving and funding the development of stealth technology like the F-117 and B-2.

I'll agree, he's a pretty good ex-president. He was a pretty crappy president, but not bad ex-president. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Little guile and no malice in him. A mediocre President, mostly I think because he was over his head given the issues of the day. Like Ronald Reagan at least in two ways: a uniter, not a divider; a smiler, not a scowler.

Subdeacon Joe Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 A genuinely good man. As Red mentioned, no guile or malice in him. He's done a lot of charity work since leaving office, not the least of his dedication to Habitat for Humanity. The only thing I can really fault him for since he left office is his tendency to get publicly involved in the politics of the day, and even that tapered off about 15 years ago.
