Why Jimmy Carter Will Be Remembered by History Better Than He is Today

I am glad I voted for Carter in the 1976 election and have no regrets that I voted for Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election.  I don't remember the specific points that motivated those choices, but I know they reflected considered thought.

But I have been dismayed by the caricature of Carter's Presidency as a failure.  He did some good things and created the framework on which much of our subsequent progress was based.  And he has certainly led an honorable life for which he should be admired.

This column lays that out.
