At least he can be comfortable knowing now that he wasn't the worst president in American history.

Without a doubt Carter was a total asshole as president. He meant well but just did not do things right. His biggest accomplishment as POTUS was looosing his reelection try and we got RR in to straighten out the big messes Carter made for this country.

With that said I hope his time at home is as pleasant as it can be for him and his family!

Horrific president. He was a submarine captain, so he must have been a smart guy, unlike lunch bucket Joe. I actually believe Carter meant well, but his leftist idealism brought us horrible policies, in a classic "road to Hell, paved with good intentions" scenario.

Good ex-president. Terrible president.

Ask @Steve_R. As a submariner I’ll be he served “under” Pres. Jimmy Carter

Heard they were nuclear buddies.

Wrong he was a LT (03) in the Navy and never rose to the rank needed to command a sub. Normally to attain captaincy you need to be a 04 or prefebly 05.

The 3rd worst president of this country.

He was a Navy Nuke, and he was the worst thing to happen to nuclear power in this country. I can’t think of one good thing he did while in office.

Whoa, you're right. I learned something. He apparently was the XO, executive officer on a sub, so, second in command.

10 NOV 1951 - 16 OCT 1952—Duty aboard USS K-1(SSK-1) Billets Held: Executive Officer, Engineering Officer, Operations Officer, Gunnery Officer, Electronics Repair Officer Qualifications: Qualified for Command of Submarine Remarks: Submarine was new construction, first vessel of its class

Still, I'm looking at that, and the rest of his rise in the Navy, and thinking, this is a sharp guy. The military back then was more merit based than it is now.

He was not a great president but Mr. Carter is an outstanding human being.

So are we saying he was the Porter of POTUS?

That’s an insult to Porter.

His position on abortion was very conservative.

45 years ago, anti-abortion wasn't a conservative position......it was a normal American position. We've gone from that, to over half the country viewing abortion as a sacrament, a sacred, holy right. I get that God promised no more great floods, but really, He ought to change his mind......it's time for another one.

Carter’s position has been recently confirmed.

Terrible POTUS, but a good man in civilian life.

His son lived several blocks over from us when JC was POTUS.

We knew a visit was coming soon when the SS arrived in town and their house. Small town back then. I met him once when they flew into our local small airport. He went up/down the line shaking hands and chatting with everyone.
