Jimmy Carter had nothing to do with the economic malaise during his presidency. It was a result of economic and morale fatigue from the cost of the Vietnam war. He was unpopular because he told people the truth and made everyone depressed.
Reagan was an idiot who made people feel good. He started charging everything on the credit card.
High interest rates and economic malaise will happen again with another president because Iraq will get worse, not better. Whoever is president will be blamed.
PS: I’m a Republican and I like George H. W. Bush. He’s brilliant but was undone by a bad economy and his inability to “communicate.” I’ll be voting for Ron Paul for sure.
