I guess they exist. I guess Jimmy Carter didn't look like the Navel Admiral he was.

I guess gas prices going up, I guess those 120+ hostages the Republicans kept imprisoned so that they won the election meant nothing to Reagan.

Carter was as brave as Obama was with his raid in Iran, unfortunately it failed. Obama's succeeded, and now we have Navy Seals saying Obama was not so brave because he played golf on the day of the raid he ordered. (and they admit that they are birthers, too)

Carter is the former President I am most proud of, given what he has done in his next 32 years.

We have Clinton, too, who seems to have raised billions to fight starvation and poverty worldwide.

We have two Bush's, too, the DO-NOTHING former Presidents.

Just saying.
