Carter VS Obama what's the difference


Carter preached a message of hope and renewal, and the Media was in love with this man giving him wide spread support, this obscure figure received support from the Liberal Media, which allotted him favorable coverage wherever his campaign took him. With the media's help Carter won key primary election victories, making him into a rock star among the masses. This rock Star image helped him reach his goal by winning the presidency and being the countries new President-Elect in less then 9 months.
President Carter took office January 20, 1977, one of the very first Executive Orders was to give unconditional amnesty to Vietnam War Draft Evaders. He also fired 800 CIA agents including George Bush Sr.

Carter Quote:"The Republican party is a party with a narrow vision, a party that is afraid of the future." The new President's approval ratings was around 70%, which didn't last very long. Even though the press was giving his new agenda all of there support with lots of coverage. the new President,was an experience former Govenor who still suffered from political inexperience. He was very quick to retreat under fire, very indecisive, and was not interested in opposing points of view, when it came to his own polices. In less then four Great years of this Administration President Carter managed to alienate Wallstreet and the Federal Reserve. Because of this administrations polices the American people were given a recession that gave them record high unemployment in double digits, inflation, and interest rates around 17%. Not only was his Domestic policy in disarray, but so was his foreign policy. The Carter Doctrine gave great verbal warnings to the Soviet Union to behave correctly. Carter Quote: "War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children." The Carter Doctrine allowed Tehran to hold the United States hostage with the failed negotiations for our US embassy staff who were being held hostages in Tehran since Nov. 4th 1979. During President Carters Re-Election Bid he threw a hail marry pass, and unded up with a disastrous attempt at military rescue in April 1980. This gave americans one more good reason to elect former Governor Ronald Reagan. This Country is in for a long rocky road ……………
