40. Jimmy Carter would be recognized today as one of the greatest Presidents ever had the hostage rescue succeeded

There would have been no Ronald Reagan presidency, and the Fed's action to control stagflation and create a booming economy would be credited to Carter, not Reagan, as Carter would have been President in late 1983-1984. Carter was the one who appointed Fed chairman Volcker in 1979. Hoping that Carter will have a chance to participate in a historical moment once again in November by voting for Harris.
